OF BIHAR, AT AND DISTT.- SHEKHPURA ---------- 02. 04.04.2011 Along with the show cause opposite party no.3 has placed on record the reasoned order dated 9.12.2010 passed by the Engineer in Chief, Rural Works Department, Govt. of Bihar, Patna, wherefrom it appears that name of the petitioner has not been deleted from the list of contractors who have been blacklisted as he failed to complete the laying of the road in question. Such fact is evident from letter no.2911 dated 7.10.2010. Counsel for the petitioner, however challenged the aforesaid finding on the ground that the road in question is to be laid within the extremists dominated area and the extremists have not allowed the authorities to proceed with the execution of the civil works. Such aspect of the matter can be better appreciated when petitioner shall assail order dated 9.12.2010. The contempt petition is, accordingly, disposed of granting liberty to the petitioner to challenge the order dated 9.12.2010. Rajesh/ ( V.N. Sinha, J.)
