     THIS CONTEMPT OF COURT CASE (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION
ON 14.08.2023, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
 Con.Case.(C) No.394 OF 2023

                                     2




                              JUDGMENT

Dated this the 14th day of August, 2023

W.P.(C) No.34097 of 2022 was disposed of on 27.10.2022

with the following directions : -

"In the facts and circumstances of the case, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 2nd respondent- Secretary to Grama Panchayat to consider Ext.P11 representation submitted by the 1st petitioner and take a decision thereon in accordance with law within a period of six weeks after giving an opportunity of hearing the petitioners as well as the 3rd respondent. It is made clear that this Court has not pronounced anything on merit on the source of pollution/contamination."

2. Standing Counsel for the respondent submits that

pursuant to the said directions, the parties were heard in person

as is evidenced by Annexure-R1(c) and the Secretary to the

Panchayat has passed Annexure-R1(d) order on 11.01.2023.

The counsel for the petitioners would submit that their grievance

has not been redressed though an order has been passed. Con.Case.(C) No.394 OF 2023

As the respondent has passed an order after hearing the

parties, I am of the view that the directions given by this Court

stand substantially complied with. If the petitioners are

aggrieved by Annexure-R1(d), the petitioners will have to invoke

their remedies. In view of the above, the Contempt of Court

case is closed, granting liberty to the petitioners to challenge

Annexure-R1(d) before appropriate forum in accordance with

law.
