ORAL ORDER (Passedon 01-02-2011) This contempt petition has been filed by the petitioner for initjating contempt proceedings against the respondent on the allegation that the respondent filed a writ petition before this Court for issuance of writ of mandamus directing the transport authority for analogous hearing of complaints made by the petitioner as well as by the respondent by stating that the respondent had filed an application before the authority on 13-05-2009. In the petition, the respondent pleaded which was also included in his representation that he filed a complaint on 13-05-2009. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that when the case was listed for hearing on 17-08-2009, it was stated that the application dated 13-05-2009 filed by the petitioner is pending consideration before the Regional Transport Authority and Taxation Authority.Raipur and eversince, no action has been taken on the said application. On such statement made, the State counsel submitted that the pending application ofthe respondent wouldbe considered and decided in accordance with-law on ite own merits within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. In view of the submissions made by the ^',^';s^ // ^ ^f1K:Sih \^/ NN^, J counsel for the parties, this Court finally disposed off the petjtion by recording that nothing survives for adjudication. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the respondent filed a petition before this Court by falsely stating that he had submitted application/complaint on 13-05-2009 which statement was also made before this Court whereas on 13-05-2009, no such complaint was filed. Learned counsel further submitted that on information sought by the petitioner from the Regional Transport Authority, Raipur, the Regional Transport Authority has informed vide letter dated 11-09-2009 that before 13-05-2009, the writ petitioner i.e. the respondent having submitted any application regarding the complaint in the office, there is no proof of submitting such application/complaint in the office. Learned counsel next submitted that on 14-09-2009 another letter was issued stating that there is no proof available in the records ofthe office to show that any complaintwas submitted in the ofdce before 13-05-2009. Learned counsei further submits that though the respondent had not filed any application/complaint prior to 13-05-2009 nor on 13-05-2009. yet it was stated before this Court that such an applicationwas submitted before the Court on 13-05-2009. This according to him, is clear abuse of the proceedings of the Court, thereby amounting to contempt of Court. 3.
