Perusal of reasoned order dated 15.12.2009, Annexure-A indicates that Sri Surendra Raut was engaged as muster roll worker with effect from 15.06.1978 and the others, namely, M/s Chandrika Prasad Azad, Nawal Kishore Prasad Singh were engaged as muster roll worker with effect from 25.02.1979, as such, there is no discrimination when 2 Sri Surendra Raut was regularized in the work charge establishment. In such view of the matter, I am not inclined to proceed with the contempt petition, which is, accordingly, dismissed. Petitioner association and its members, however, are at liberty to file another writ petition for ensuring direction to the Commissioner, Patna Division and Collector, Patna to clear roster points enabling the Water Resources Department to consider the regularization of the other members of the petitioner association.
