The Division Bench while disposing of the petition, namely Writ Petition No.398/2000 had directed the Mamaltdar to look into the matter and proceed according to law regarding the grievance of the petitioner. The respondent has, accordingly, taken proper steps in pursuance of the directions issued by this Court while disposing of the P.I.L. Writ Petition No.398/2000. 3. Prima facie, there does not appear to be any breach committed by the respondent of the directions issued by the Division Bench and I am of the considered opinion that no contempt has been committed by the respondent. 4. I have heard Mr. V.R. Tamba, the leaned Counsel appearing for the petitioner and Miss S. Linhares, learned Addl. Govt. Advocate appearing on behalf of the contemner/respondent. In my considered opinion, there is no substance in the petition and the petition deserves to be dismissed with no order as to costs. P.V. HARDAS, J. ssm.
