JUSTICE MIHIR KUMAR JHA ORAL ORDER 3/ 18-04-2012 As this case has been restored today by a separate order passed in M.J.C No.5290 of 2010, this Court has also taken up the hearing of this application on merits. In the considered opinion of this court, the allegation of non compliance of the directions contained in the order dated 12.03.2008, cannot be gone into in the absence of show cause reply which was to be filed by the counsel for the Tilka Manjhi Bhagalpur University. By an order dated 23.06.2010,while the petitioner was given the peremptory time to remove the defects, a direction was also given to the counsel for the University to file his Patna High Court MJC No.3988 of 2009 (3) dt.18-04-2012 2 show cause reply, as the case itself stood dismissed for default on account of non removal of the defects, the required show cause was not filed by the University. In such a situation, this Court instead of keeping this contempt application pending would direct the opposite parties to take a final decision, if not already taken by now and communicate it to the petitioner in terms of the order passed by this Court on 12.03.2008 passed in C.W.J.C No. 11070 of 2005 within a period of four months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. With the aforementioned observations and direction, this application is disposed of. Ranjan (Mihir Kumar Jha, J)
