Judgment / Order

20/10/2023

This contempt petition has been filed alleging wilful

disobedience of the order dated 31.01.2018 whereby, this Court

directed that if seats of physically handicapped persons are found

vacant in the year 2013 which could not be filled up by their

respective categories in the year 2012, then the petitioner shall be

given appointment appropriately in accordance with their merit by

[2023:RJ-JP:31168] (2 of 2) [CCP-226/2019]

giving effect to the inter-change amongst the physically

handicapped persons.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that despite

availability of unfilled vacant seat of the year 2012 under the

Physically Handicapped Quota, the respondents have not given

him appointment as per his merit. He, therefore, prays that the

respondents may be directed to purge the contempt and they may

also be punished suitably.

Per contra, learned counsel for the respondents, inviting

attention of this Court towards the contents of para no.2 of the

reply filed by them, would submit that there were four vacancies

in the year 2012 of Teacher Grade-III (Level-II) subject Hindi

under the Physically Handicapped Quota and all four seats were

filled in by such candidates. He submits that since, there was no

unfilled seat of 2012 available for consideration of petitioner's

candidature, the contempt petition deserves to be dismissed.

Heard. Considered.

In view of non-availability of any unfilled vacancy of the

Physically Handicapped Quota seat of the year 2012 in the year

2013, no contempt is made out.

The contempt petition is dismissed accordingly.

Notices are discharged.
