1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE, BENCH AT AURANGABAD CONTEMPT PETITION NO. 212 OF 2010 IN WRIT PETITION NO. 1696 OF 2007 Atmaram Kisan Shirsat ...Petitioner Versus The State of Maharashtra and others ...Respondents ..... Mr. S.I. Nandode, advocate for the petitioner Mr. Vijay Sharma, for respondent Nos.1 and 4. ..... CORAM: S. S. SHINDE, J. DATED: 26TH OCTOBER, 2010 PER COURT:- 1 Learned counsel appearing for respondent Nos. 1 and 4, on oral instructions from the said respondents, submits that the amount towards interest @ Rs.8% p.a. will be paid to the petitioner as per the Government Resolution dated 18.11.2009, within eight weeks from today. 2 Counsel for the petitioner submits that the rate of interest which now agreed by the respondent Nos. 1 and 4 should have been made applicable with effect from the order of the Division Bench passed in 2 writ petition No. 1696 of 2007. According to counsel for the petitioner, the respondents were directed to make the payment of arrears alongwith interest by order dated 22.11.2007. 3 I have given due consideration to the submissions advanced by the counsel for the parties and I am of the opinion that there is no any time limit fixed by learned Division Bench in the order passed in writ petition No. 1696 of 2007 to make such payment. In this view of the matter, it is very difficult for this court to exercise the contempt jurisdiction in absence of any time limit fixed by the learned Division Bench of this Court. 4 However, the statement made by the counsel appearing for respondent Nos. 1 and 4 is accepted. Contempt petition is disposed of. Notice discharged. If the petitioner has any further grievance, he can file appropriate proceeding in accordance with law, before the appropriate forum. ( S. S.
