State Wakf Board, Haj House, Nampally, Hyderabad & Anr. ...Respondents *** THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B.SESHASAYANA REDDY Contempt Case No.1836 of 2010 ORDER: This Contempt Case has been ﬁled by the writ petitioner in W.P.No.20322 of 2007 complaining disobedience of the order, dated 18.12.2009, passed in WPMP No.26276 of 2007 in W.P.No.20322 of 2007. 2. The petitioner ﬁled W.P.No.20322 of 2007 assailing the inaction of the A.P. State Wakf Board in conducting an enquiry on the petition ﬁled by him under Section 70 r/w.Sec.64 of the Wakf Act, 1995. He also moved W.P.M.P.No.26276 of 2007 seeking interim direction to the A.P. State Wakf Board to conduct an enquiry and pass appropriate orders. An interim direction came to be ordered on 18.12.2009. There being no action on the part of the 1st respondent, despite the interim direction given by this Court on 18.12.2009, the petitioner has ﬁled this Contempt Case against the 1st respondent. 3. It is stated in the counter-aﬃdavit, dated 29.11.2011, ﬁled by the 1st respondent that enquiry oﬃcer has been appointed by issuing proceedings in F.No.B3/19/KNL/2007/Z.V., dated 20.08.2011. For better appreciation, I may refer paras.3 and 4 of the counter- affidavit, dated 29.11.2011, which read as hereunder: “3. In reply to para.No.2 or the Aﬃdavit, it is submitted that the copy of the order, dt.18.12.2009 passed in WPMP No.26276/2007 in W.P.No.20322/2007 has been received by this Oﬃce on 9.2.2010 and subsequently this oﬃce called for report from the Inspector Auditor (Wakfs) Kurnool District in F.No.B3/19/KNL/2006/Z.V., dated 8.2.2010. Due to shifting of ﬁles from one section to another section this bundle clubbed with another section ﬁles and not traced out in time. Due to which this oﬃce is in delay to implement the orders passed by this Hon’ble Court. 4. On receipt of Contempt Notice, this oﬃce traced out the ﬁle and passed orders for conducting enquiry against the respondent No.2 by issuing proceedings in F.No.B3/19/KNL/2007/Z.V., dt.20.8.2011 by appointing an enquiry officer and the same is in progress.” 4. Since it is stated in the counter-aﬃdavit, dated 29.11.2011, that the enquiry oﬃcer has been appointed, the 1st respondent is given three months time to complete the enquiry and pass appropriate orders. In the event of the 1st respondent failing to complete the enquiry within the stipulated time and pass appropriate orders, the petitioner is at liberty to revive the Contempt Case. 5. Accordingly, the Contempt Case is disposed of. No costs. ______________________ B.SESHASAYANA REDDY, J.
