Learned counsel for the petitioners, at this stage, submits that time may be granted to implement the order of the Tribunal dated 10.05.2016. We grant the petitioners six weeks' time to implement the order from the date a copy of this order is received by them".

The petitioner filed MA No. 3019/2016 in OA No.574/2013 seeking execution of the aforesaid orders in the OA. The said MA was disposed of as infructuous by an order dated 27.10.2017 after recording that the claim of the petitioner has been accepted by the respondents and the said order reads as under:-

The Cont. Case ( C) No.367/2017 filed by the petitioner alleging violation of the order dated 08.02.2017 in W.P. ( C) No.8365/2016 which was filed by the respondents against the orders in OA No.547/2013, was disposed of on 14.12.2017, as under:-

"Instant contempt petition has come to be filed alleging violation of the order dated 8.2.2017. Perusal of the petition and the order dated 8.2.2017 passed by the Division Bench of this Court would show that the order of Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) dated 10.5.2016 was allowed to be implemented in six weeks' time. During the course of hearing, Mr. Singla, ld. counsel for the respondents points out that the satisfaction of the order dated 10.5.2016 in terms of the order dated 8.2.2017 has already come to be recorded by CAT in its order dated 27.10.2017, a copy whereof is annexed as Annexure P-11 to the rejoinder filed by the petitioner itself. When the satisfaction has already been recorded by CAT, the petition does not survive and is disposed off accordingly".

7.

In spite of the orders of this Tribunal in MA No. 3019/2016 in OA No. 547/2013 dated 27.10.2017 and the order dated 14.12.2017 in Cont. Case ( C) No.367/2017 of the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi, the petitioner again filed the instant CP alleging violation of the very same orders dated 10.05.2016 in OA No.547/2013 which were already held to have been complied with. If the petitioner is aggrieved either with the order dated 27.10.2017

in MA No.3019/2016 in OA No.547/2013 or by the order dated 14.12.2017 in Cont. Case (C )No.367/2017 of the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi in any manner and if his case is that this Tribunal as well as the Hon'ble High Court wrongly closed the said legal proceedings or the said orders were obtained by the respondents behind his back or my misleading or misrepresenting, the remedy lies to him was before the appropriate Court/Tribunal by filing appropriate application/petition against the said orders, but the petitioner having not questioned the said orders, now cannot maintain the present CP once again alleging the violation of the orders which were already held to have been complied with.

8.

In the circumstances and for the aforesaid reasons, the CP is dismissed. No costs.
