The applicant seeks initiation of contempt proceedings against the respondent for the alleged breach of the judgment and order dated 14.7.1997 of this Court in Special Civil Application No.26 of 1995 by which the respondent - Corporation was directed to consider the claim of the petitioner for promotion to the post of Superintending Engineer in accordance with the relevant Recruitment Rules. 2. In their affidavit-in-reply, the respondents Nos.1 & 2 have stated that, pursuant to the directions of the High Court, the case of the petitioner for promotion to the post of Superintending Engineer was considered by the Personnel Committee of the Corporation, which is the competent authority for this purpose, in its meeting dated 3.7.1998 and that after considering all the aspects, the Committee did not find the petitioner suitable for promotion for the said post. It is stated that, as per the rules, the promotion to the said post is to be given to the officers working in the feeder cadre after considering seniority and fitness. 3. It is thus clear that the directions of this Court contained in the order dated 14.7.1997 in Special Civil Application No.26 of 1995 have been duly complied with. There is therefore no ground for taking any action under the provisions of the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971 against any of the respondents. Rule is discharged with no order as to costs.
