THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA CONTEMPT CASE No.1156 of 2009 ORDER: Petitioner herein filed Writ Petition No.12353 of 2009 questioning an order of transfer. He also filed WPMP.No.15977 of 2009 therein seeking a direction to the second respondent herein to permit him to discharge his duties as Conductor at Udayagiri Depot, by suspending the said transfer order. On 25.06.2009, this Court while admitting the writ petition, granted interim suspension of the transfer order. Pursuant to the said order, the petitioner was allowed to duty and discharging duties as Conductor with effect from 31.08.2009 and he was paid salaries from the said date. However, according to the petitioner, he reported to duty on 27.06.2009 itself but the second respondent intentionally did not allow him and he was entitled to payment of salaries for the period from 27.06.2009 to 31.08.2009 also and as the said amount is not paid, he filed the present Contempt Case. On notice, a detailed counter-affidavit has been filed by the respondents. As per the counter, the petitioner reported to duty on 31.08.2009 and in the light of the order passed by this Court on 25.06.2009, he was taken to duty and permitted to discharge his duties as Conductor only with effect from 31.08.2009. It is stated by the learned Standing Counsel appearing for APSRTC that the said interim order was vacated by this Court on 08.07.2010. May be the petitioner stated that he reported to duty on 27.06.2009 but the same cannot be accepted for the reason that the interim order was passed by this Court on 27.06.2009 and even if he reported to duty, unless a copy of the said order is produced, the respondent authorities are not duty bound to take him into duty. Further, as the said order was vacated by this Court subsequently and he was paid salaries with effect from 31.08.2009, this Court is of the view that no contempt lies. Accordingly, the Contempt Case is dismissed. However, it is the contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner reported to duty on 27.06.2009. If it is a fact, the petitioner can as well bring it to the notice of the second respondent by giving a representation and request the authorities concerned to pay salaries for the period from 27.06.2009 to 31.08.2009 and thereupon, the same shall be considered and necessary orders will be passed within a period of four weeks thereafter. _________________________________ GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA, J 23rd JULY, 2010. kvni
