IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.3641 of 2010 Mrs. Gita Jalan W/O Late Nathmal Jalan R/O 6, Nehru Nagar, P.S.- Patliputra Colony, Patna. Petitioner. Versus 1. The Union Of India, Through Secretary, Ministry Of Finance, Govt. Of India, New Delhi 2. Magadh Stock Exchange Association, 9th Floor, Ashiana Plaza, Patna-1 3. The Officiating Executive Director, Magadh Stock Exchange Association, 9th Floor, Ashiana Plaza, Patna-1 4. Securities And Exchange Board Of India, Mittal Court 'B' Wing, 224 Nariman Point, Mumbai-20 5. Secretary, Ministry Of Finance, Govt. Of India, New Delhi. Respondents. ----------- 2. 28.6.2011. Heard learned counsel appearing on behalf of the parties. The petitioner complains non refund of the interest of various securities and other refundable deposits made to the Magadh Stock Exchange from time to time due and payable to her late husband. It so appears that the petitioner had earlier approached this Court for the same cause of action vide C.W.J.C.No.10317 of 2002 (Nathmal Jalan Vs. The Union of India and others) when a bench of this court, upon consideration of the grievance of the petitioner, disposed of the writ petition with a direction to the Securities and Exchange Board of India respondent no.4 herein and Magadh Stock Exchange Association, respondent no.2 herein to consider the case of the petitioner within six 2 weeks from the date of presentation/communication of the order (Annexure-4). Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that pursuant to the direction of this Court, the petitioner filed a detailed representation dated 30.4.2007 which is placed at Annexure-5 and with a reminder again on 9.6.2007 which is placed at Annexure-7 requiring compliance of the direction of this court. Learned counsel submits that despite the direction of this court and the representation submitted by the petitioner, the order has not yet been complied by the respondent nos.2 and 4 herein forcing her to move this court through the present writ petition. As there is already a direction from this court placed at Annexure-4 requiring the respondent nos.2 and 4 to consider the grievance of the petitioner and dispose of the same in accordance with law, there can not be any repeated direction on the same cause of action. The petitioner has his remedy of filing an appropriate application before an appropriate forum complaining non compliance of the direction of this court as found in Annexure-4 by the respondent nos.2 and 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner at this 3 stage seeks permission of this court to convert this writ petition into an application under Article 215 of the Constitution of India read with the provisions of the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971. Keeping in view the circumstances that the petitioner happens to be a widow seeking refund of the dues of her late husband, permission is accorded to convert this writ petition into a contempt application within a period of three weeks from today. Upon completion of the procedural requirements for conversion of this application into a contempt application, the matter would be placed before an appropriate bench hearing contempt cases as per roster, after obtaining the permission of Hon’ble the Chief Justice. ahk (Jyoti Saran, J.)
