In the show cause filed on behalf of the State it is clearly stated that the difference of salary on account of increase of salary for the period from 1.1.1971 to 31.3.1973 payable to the petitioner along with interest as per direction of this Court has already been paid to him through cheque dated 9.10.2007 amounting to Rs.26081/- even prior to the filing of the contempt application. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the further amount lying in the suspense account will also be payable to the petitioner. 2 It appears that the direction was only to pay the difference of salary for the period from 1.1.1971 to 31.3.1973 including in cases where it had been put in suspense account. There is no merit in the submission of learned counsel for the petitioner that any further amount lying in suspense account was the subject matter of dispute in the said writ petition. The contempt application is, accordingly, dismissed. (Ramesh Kumar Datta,J.) spal/
