Mr.Mohit Bhansali i/b.Mr.Prabhawalkar, for respondent nos.3 to 10. ......... CORAM : A.S.OKA, J.. DATE : 11th November, 2009. P.C. : 1] Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned AGP for respondent nos.1, 2 and 11. The breach alleged is of order dated 17th August, 2009 passed by the Division Bench of this Court which reads thus:- 1. Counsel appearing for Respondent No.2 submits that they will dispose of the representation pending with them since February, 2009 within four weeks from today. 2. In view of the submission made, nothing survives for consideration in this Petition. The same is disposed of. No order as to costs. 3. Respondent No.2 will abide by the above statement. 2] The learned AGP has placed on record the order dated 15th September, kbp 2 107-09.sxw 2009 passed by the second respondent and states that the representation made by the petitioners has been disposed of in terms of the said order. The learned counsel for the petitioner makes a grievance that what is disposed of is a show cause notice under Section 78 of the Maharashtra Co-Operative Societies Act, 1960 and the representation has not been disposed of. 3] The statement recorded in order dated 17th August, 2009 by the Division Bench is that the second respondent will dispose of the representation pending with the second respondent since February, 2009. The representation dated 13th February, 2009 contains a prayer for appointment of an Administrator. The order which is tendered across the bar by the learned AGP appoints an Administrator. I am of the view that the substantial compliance has been made with the order of the Division Bench. In any case, this is not a case for initiating contempt proceedings under the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971 or under Article 215 of the Constitution of India. 4] The petition is disposed of. The rights and contentions of the petitioner are expressly kept open. ( A.S.OKA, J. )
