Counsel for the State is present and files show cause reply on behalf of opposite parties. Considering the fact that the Authorities have passed a final order as contained in Annexure-B to the show cause reply, it must be held that the contempt application has become infructuous, inasmuch as, the direction given in the connected writ application being C.W.J.C No. 8038 of 2003 was only for consideration of the case of the petitioner. That being so, this application is dismissed as having become infructuous. The petitioner however would be at liberty to pursue his remedy as against the order passed by the Authority (Annexure-A and B) to the show cause reply in accordance with law.
