For the Petitioner : Mr. Dhananjay Kumar, Advocate. For the State : Mr. Ansuman Singh, G.P. 24. ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAMESH KUMAR DATTA and HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SUDHIR SINGH ORAL ORDER (Per: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAMESH KUMAR DATTA) 31-03-2016 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State.
The petitioner claims violation of wilful disobedience of the order dated 16.04.2015, passed in L.P.A. No.1325 of 2014. By the said order, the Court disposed of the appeal, leaving it open to the appellants to make a representation before the District Magistrate, who, in turn, was to pass appropriate orders within a period of two months from the date of the representation. In the show cause filed on behalf of opposite parties, an order dated 18.02.2016, passed by the District Magistrate,
Patna High Court MJC No.2398 of 2015 (4) dt.31-03-2016 2/2 Gopalganj, has been brought on record as Annexure-A by which the representation of the petitioner has been considered and rejected.
Learned counsel for the petitioner has sought to argue that this Court had directed that if alternative land owned by the Government, which is larger in area and better in location, is available, then the same should be allotted for the purpose of the School.
We are unable to agree with the said submission since the direction of the Court to the District Magistrate was only to consider and pass appropriate orders.
The District Magistrate having passed the order no case for initiating proceedings of contempt is made out. The contempt application is, accordingly, dismissed. (Ramesh Kumar Datta, J) (Sudhir Singh, J) U.K./-sudip U
