Respondents To 1. Smt. Poonam Malakondaiah, I.A.S., the Commissioner and Director of School Education, Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad. 2. Sri P.

WHEREAS your attendance is necessary to answer the charges of the Contempt of Courts under Sections 10 to 12 of Contempt of Courts Act viz; to call the respondents and punish them for their willful deliberate disobedience in not paying the salaries to the petitioner, in compliance of the common orders passed by this Hon`ble Court in WP. No. 2334 of 2010 and WP. No. 2336 of 2010, dated: 10-02-2010; You namely; 1. Smt. Poonam Malakondaiah, I.A.S., the Commissioner and Director of School Education, Andhra Pradesh, Hyderabad. 2. Sri P. Lakshma Reddy, the District Educational Officer, Warangal, Warangal District. are hereby required to appear in person before the High Court of Andhra Pradesh at Hyderabad on 16-08-2010 at 10.30 a.m. and show cause why you shall not be punished or other appropriate order be not passed against you for Contempt of the High Court of Andhra Pradesh. You shall attend High Court of Andhra Pradesh at Hyderabad in person on 16-08-2010 at 10. 30 A.M and shall continue to attend the High Court on all days thereafter to which date the case against you stands adjourned and until final orders are passed on the charge against you. Herein fail not. And the Court further made the following ORDER: This contempt case is filed by the petitioner complaining about the wilful and deliberate disobedience of the orders of this Court in W.P.No.2334 of 2010, dated 10.2.2010. By the aforesaid orders, this Court directed the respondents herein to pay entire salary payable to the petitioner herein within six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of the said order. Contd.. ..2.. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the said orders of this Court have been received by the respondents and in fact the District Educational Officer, Warangal, issued proceedings in Rc.No.7717/B1/2009, dated 25.3.2010 posting the petitioner at Government High School, Laxmipuram, Warangal, but the salary payable from March, 2006 onwards has not been paid. Admittedly, the time stipulated by this Court was expired in the month of April, 2010 itself. Though more than three months have been elapsed, there cannot be any justification in not paying the salary to the petitioner. More so, when the District Educational Officer, Warangal, passed orders dated 1.7.2010 pursuant to the memo issued by the Government dated 21.6.2010 directing the Mandal Educational Officer, Warangal to claim the pending salary of the petitioner against the vacant post provision now posted in the Government High School, Laxmipuram. We are of the opinion that mere passing of orders for payment of salary cannot be said as compliance with the orders of this Court. No counter is filed. Therefore, respondents are directed to appear before this Court on 16.8.2010 to explain as why appropriate action shall not be initiated against them for disobedience of the orders of this Court in W.P.No.2334 of 2010, dated 10.2.2010. If the entire salary of the petitioner is paid and compliance report is filed, they shall file an application for dispensing with their presence. List the matter on 16.8.2010. DEPUTY REGISTRAR To 1.
