It appears that pursuant to order of the writ court whereby the writ petitioner was directed to approach respondent nos. 4 and 5 the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Madhubani Municipal Corporation to raise his grievances, a canal which was necessary to be cleaned to prevent flooding of the Madhubani town has been cleaned in the urban area..

The contempt petition is disposed of. - 2 - Petitioner, if so advised, may seek redressal of his grievances through appropriate proceeding. ( Shiva Kirti Singh,J) ( Jyoti Saran, J ) Naresh
