SUNIL THOMAS, J
--------------------------------
I.A.No.1 of 2021 in
Contempt Case (Civil) No.1185 of 2021 in
W.P.(C)No.4784 of 2021
----------------------------------
Dated this the 3rd day of November, 2021
ORDER
The writ petition was disposed of with a direction to the KSRTC
to consider the representation submitted by the petitioner and others
and to pass fresh transfer orders. The petitioner has approached
this court with the contempt case contending that the KSRTC has not
been complied with the directions. The contempt case was closed
recording compliance of the judgment. The present IA is filed
seeking permission to file objections as directed by this court in the
judgment dated 17.03.2021. Since the time prescribed is over and
the KSRTC has accordingly complied with the judgment by now, no
relief can be granted. I am inclined to close IA.No.1 of 2021,
however, with an observation that in the event of the writ petitioner
challenging the transfer order now issued by the KSRTC, the
petitioner will be free to raise the objections, which he proposes to
raise in the objections, pursuant to the judgment dated 07.03.2021.
IA.No.1 of 2021 is closed. Sd/-
