Manoj Kumar Tiwari, J

1.

Petitioner’s Writ Petition (S/S) No. 543 of 2019 was disposed of by Writ Court vide order dated 14.03.2019 with a direction to Competent

Authority to take decision on his representation.

2.

This Contempt Petition was filed alleging that no decision has been taken on petitioner’s representation.

3.

Compliance affidavits have been filed by respondent nos. 1 & 2. Annexure No. 5 to the compliance affidavit filed on behalf of respondent no.1 is

the order dated 12.02.2020, whereby decision on petitioner’s representation was taken.

4.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner’s representation has been rejected mechanically, with total non-application of mind.

it is not a case of willful disobedience of the order passed by Writ Court.

Contempt notices issued to the respondents are hereby discharged.
