Mr. Sanjay Poddar, learned senior counsel for respondent-GNCTD states that special rehabilitation package being offered to the petitioners is in terms of the policy announced on October, 2008 as well as in accordance with the subsequent Cabinet decision.

Consequently, present contempt petitions are disposed of accepting Mr. Dalai's offer to accept the package without prejudice to his rights and contentions and with liberty to raise the aforesaid claims. However, it is clarified that this Court has not expressed any opinion on the merits of the claims.

Rights and contentions of all parties are left open.
