THIS CONTEMPT OF COURT CASE (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION
ON 26.02.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
C.O.(C) No. 439/2019
in W.P.(C) No. 12776/2017 :2:
Dated this the 26th day of February, 2021.
JUDGMENT
This Contempt Case is filed complaining that the directives
contained in the judgment dated 22.01.2019 in W.P.(C) No. 12776 of
2017 is not complied with.
2. In fact, the writ petition was disposed of making the interim
order dated 04.10.2017 absolute, which reads thus:
"Post after two weeks. In the meanwhile, the first respondent shall ensure that quarrying is not conducted by the eleventh respondent otherwise than in accordance with the terms of Ext.P5 Environmental Clearance."
3. However, today, when the matter is taken up, the learned
Senior Government Pleader has made his submissions on the basis of
the affidavit filed by the respondent, from where I find that later W.P.
(C) No. 9452 of 2019 was filed by the son of the petitioner and in that
writ petition various directions were issued. A commission was
appointed and the slurry dumped in the yard in violation of the terms
and conditions was removed.
4. Taking into account the said aspects put forth by the
petitioner, I am satisfied that the subject issue is being regulated in a
new writ petition specified above.
C.O.(C) No. 439/2019
5. In that view of the matter, I do not think it is proper to
proceed with the contempt case any further. If at all there is any
violation, it is only on the basis of the directions issued by this Court in
the new writ petition specified above.
Accordingly, this Contempt Case is closed, leaving open the
liberty of the petitioner and his son to take up all the contentions in the
new writ petition.
