THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY CONTEMPT CASE No.608 of 2011 ORDER: This Contempt Case is filed alleging violation of the directions issued by this Court in order, dated 02.03.2009 in Writ Petition No.26395 of 2000. Petitioner is a Conductor in Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC). Against him, disciplinary proceedings were initiated on the ground that he has violated APSRTC Employees (Conduct) Regulations, 1963. In the disciplinary proceedings, final orders were passed imposing the punishment of stoppage of annual increment for a period of two (2) years with cumulative effect. The petitioner has questioned the said orders in Writ Petition No.26395 of 2000, in which, this Court relying on the judgment of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of KULWANT SINGH GILL v. STATE OF PUNJAB[1], passed orders on 02.03.2009 directing the respondents to treat the punishment imposed on the petitioner as stoppage of annual increment for a period of two (2) years without any effect on future increments. There was also a consequential direction to re-fix the pay of the petitioner in the light of the directions referred to therein. When the matter is taken up, the learned Standing Counsel for APSRTC appearing for the respondents has produced before this Court a copy of proceedings, dated 11.07.2007, issued by the Depot Manager, Chilakaluripet, re-fixing the pay of the petitioner in the light of the directions issued by this Court. The learned Standing Counsel for APSRTC stated that the payments, which are payable on account of re-fixation, are also paid. Though there was some delay on the part of the respondents in complying the orders passed by this Court, as much as the learned Standing Counsel placed on record re-fixation proceedings, dated 11.07.2007, this Court is of the view that it is not a fit case to proceed further under the provisions of the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971. The Contempt Case is accordingly closed. _______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 16th AUGUST, 2011. kvni [1] 1990(1) LLJ 635
