THE FOLLOWING:
Con.Case(C) No.501 of 2023
2
JUDGMENT
Dated this the 27th day of October, 2023
The Contempt of Court Case is one arising from an interim
order dated 20.01.2023 in W.P.(C) No.1935 of 2023. By the
interim order, this Court directed the 3rd respondent-Municipality
to ensure that construction is made by respondents 5 and 6
only after obtaining statutory licences and permits.
2. Counter affidavit filed by the Secretary to the
Municipality would indicate that the petitioner submitted
application to the Municipality along with the interim order dated
20.01.2023 on 25.01.2023. The Secretary to the Municipality
issued Stop Memo to respondents 5 and 6, on 02.02.2023
itself.
3. In view of the afore act of the Secretary, I find that
there is prima facie compliance of the directions. Whether the
contesting respondents in the writ petition have proceeded with Con.Case(C) No.501 of 2023
the construction thereafter, is a matter which can be considered
in the pending writ petition.
In view of the above, the Contempt of Court Case is
closed.
