JUDGMENT
Vinod Chandran, J.
Learned Senior Government Pleader submits on
instructions that the petitioner has received a sum of
Rs.3,82,272/- [Rupees Three lakhs eighty two thousand two
hundred and seventy two only] on 22.09.2021. The interest
portion of Rs.22,936/- [Rupees Twenty two thousand nine
hundred and thirty six only] also has been disbursed on
two occasions. The first disbursement was on 20.09.2021
of an amount of Rs.6,420/- [Rupees Six thousand four
hundred and twenty only] and then another disbursement
was made on today of Rs.16,516/- [Rupees Sixteen thousand
five hundred and sixteen only].
2. Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits
that the petitioner has not received the second
disbursement and that still there is some dispute with
respect to the interest.
3. Learned Senior Government Pleader points out
that the transaction has been made by deposit in the
Treasury Account on today. The petitioner will have to
verify the same. The petitioner would also file a
representation before the appropriate authority on the
dispute of interest. We do not think that the contempt
case should be kept pending.
In such circumstances, we close the contempt
case with a direction to the respondent to consider the
representation of the petitioner, as and when it is
filed.
