The show cause reply has been filed by the officials of the University stating therein that pursuant to the order of this Court dated 06.03.2009, payment of Rs. 2,48,517/-by way of difference of salary from 01.01.1996 to 28.02.2011 has been paid to the petitioner through cheque no. 002904 dated 07.07.2010. In view of the fact that this Court had not quantified any specific amount for its being paid to the petitioner, and had merely directed the authorities of the University to make payment of any admitted amount and the University has made payment of such amount, there would be no question of the authority of the University being in contempt for non compliance of the order of this Court dated 06.03.2009 At this stage Mr. Manmohan, learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that neither the authorities of the University have disclosed the net admissibility of the amount payable to the mother of the petitioners, nor they have given break-up of the amount which was paid to them in compliance of the order of this Court. If that be the grievance of the petitioners, this Court would direct the authorities of the University to also furnish break-up of such payment within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. It goes without saying that if the petitioners feel aggrieved on account of any short payment, it will be always open for them to take recourse as is available to them in law. With the aforementioned observations and direction, this application is disposed of. Ranjan (Mihir Kumar Jha,J)
