Opp.Parties ----------- 6. 26.10.2009 By the order dated 11.9.2006 passed by this Court in CWJC No. 9377/2006 the direction was to pay the admitted dues due and payable to late Phuljharia to her nominee/successors. In the show cause and supplementary show cause filed on behalf of the opposite party no.5, the Executive Officer, Chapra Nagar Parishad, it is stated that all the admitted dues of late Phuljharia have already been paid to the person entitled. Learned counsel for the petitioner raises a grievance regarding payment of the amount in terms of only 4th pay revision and not as per fifth and sixth pay revision which he claims the authorities of the Municipality are empowered to do on their own. Such matters cannot be adjudicated under the contempt jurisdiction. The direction of this Court in the order under contempt was only to release all the admitted dues which appears to have been complied by the opposite parties. In the above circumstances, the contempt application is dismissed. 2 The petitioner, if aggrieved by the action of the opposite parties, may challenge the same in appropriate proceedings. S. Pandey (Ramesh Kumar Datta, J.)
