Shri S.D.Chopde, adv. for petitioner Shri A.G.Mujumdar, AGP, for respondent ... CORAM : R. K.DESHPANDE, J. DATED : 18th OCTOBER, 2010. This petition complains about willful disobedience of the order dated 15.4.2010 passed by this Court in W.P.

It is brought to the notice of this Court that the petitioner has already submitted the representation to the Collector dated 04/12/2009. In that view of the matter, we dispose of the writ petition and expect respondent No. 3 the Collector to deal with the same according to law and procedure.” The complaint is that no action has been taken by the Collector on the representation made by the petitioner on 4.12.2009, which is referred in the aforesaid order passed by this Court. The Collector has filed an affidavit dated 7.10.2010. In paras 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the affidavit, it has been stated as under; “3. It is most respectfully submitted that the representation of the petitioner dated 04.12.2009 was handed over to Sub Divisional Officer, Achalpur for making proper enquiry into it even prior to the orders passed by this Hon'ble Court. 4. As per the order/communication dated 15.02.2010 the answering respondent has handed over the complaint dated 04.12.2009 (received on 07.12.2009) filed by the petitioner to Sub Divisional Officer for making enquiry. The copy of which is annexed along with this Affidavit and marked as Annexure R-I. 5. In compliance of the order/communication dated 15.02.2010 the Sub Divisional Officer, Achalpur has submitted his enquiry report dated 04.10.2010 before the answering respondent and the same was brought before the answering respondent by the office of the answering respondent on 05.10.2010. Immediately on that day itself the answering respondent asked his subordinates to take follow up and punitive action against all the concerned. The true copy of the forwarding letter on which the answering respondent has asked to his subordinate to take follow up action is annexed herewith and marked as Annexure R-II. 6. The answering respondent assures this Hon'ble Court that pursuance tot he report submitted by the Sub-Divisional Officer, Achalpur action in accordance with the law will be taken in the matter.” Shri Mujumdar, the learned A.G.P. appearing for the respondent Collector submits that the proposal is required to be forwarded by Collector to the authorities competent to take appropriate action. Upon taking instructions from Shri Fulzele, the Deputy Collector, Amravati, he submits that such proposal shall be forwarded to the competent authorities within a period of 20 days from today. In view of above, nothing survives in this contempt petition. The same is, therefore, dismissed. JUDGE Rvjalit
