Mr. Jeevan Kumar Sinha, District Magistrate-cum-Collector, East Champaran at Motihari. 2 3. Mr. Indra Sen Singh, District Development Commissioner, East Champaran at Motihari. 4. Md. Gufran Ahmad, Deputy Collector (Establishment) East Champaran at Motihari. 5. Mr. K.B.N. Singh, Development Officer, East Champaran at Motihari. ---------Contemnor/Opposite Parties. ----------- 7 30.9.2008 This contempt application has been filed alleging non-compliance of the interim order dated 21.2.2006. It appears that prima facie this Court had found that some appointments were made in pursuance of a decision taken by the District Establishment Committee-cum-Selection Committee on 6.2.2006 and 18.2.2006. As per the second supplementary show cause filed on behalf of the District Magistrate, East Champaran, Motihari on 20.6.2008 it appears that a categorical statement has been made that after the order dated 21.2.2006 no further appointments have been made from amongst the daily wage employees in accordance with 1980-90 policies. It has further been stated that the petitioners could not pass the bicycle test and mandays were considerably lower than those persons who were selected by the District Establishment Committee. In any event, I find that there is no contempt of the order of this Court. The 3 petitioners should get the writ application heard at an early date as it would be most unfair to keep persons waiting for appointment for years together although they may have been selected by the District Establishment Committee. Accordingly the petitioners or the counsel for the State should make a mention before the Bench concerned for early hearing of this case. This contempt application is dismissed.
