GOVERNMENT PLEADER MR.P.K.RAVIKRISHNAN THIS CONTEMPT OF COURT CASE (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 26/11/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: HARUN-UL-RASHID, J. ------------------------ C.O.C.No.1435 Of 2010 ---------------------- Dated this the 26th day of November, 2010. J U D G M E N T The petitioner earlier filed C.O.C.No.173 of 2010 complaining about the inaction of the Government in complying with the directions issued by this Court in Annexure 1 judgment in W.P.(C).No.2233 of 2004. Finding that the order dated 8.7.2010 was passed by the Government in compliance of the direction issued by this Court, the contempt case was closed. 2. The petitioner now moved the present contempt case alleging that the Government Order referred above dated 8.7.2010 was misleading and it was on the basis of misrepresentation that this court had closed the contempt case. The present contempt case was filed praying to take action against the respondent for misleading the Court as alleged in the contempt case. 3. I have already passed judgment dated 9.7.2010 closing the contempt case finding that the directions issued by this Court had been complied by the Government by issuing C.O.C.No.1435 Of 2010 ::2:: Government Order dated 8.7.2010. Thus, the compliance was recorded and the contempt case was closed. The grievance now put forward by the petitioner in fact is a challenge against the Government Order dated 8.7.2010 on merits. The remedy open to the petitioner is to challenge the said Order before the appropriate forum. The contempt case is not maintainable and hence it is dismissed. HARUN-UL-RASHID, Judge. bkn/-
