CORAM :- S. C. DHARMADHIKARI & B. P. COLABAWALLA, JJ.

DATED :- DECEMBER 9, 2016 P.C. :- 1.

Heard Mr. Shah. Perused the order of which contempt is complained of. Having perused it, what we find is that based thereon some substantive reliefs are claimed. Though the promotion is stated to be granted, the deemed date of the same is not granted. If that is the relief which is being claimed and consequential benefits flowing therefrom, then, the remedy is to file a substantive proceeding. In contempt jurisdiction we cannot grant any substantive relief or modify the order. The contempt petition is entirely misconceived and it is dismissed. (B.P.COLABAWALLA, J.) (S.C.DHARMADHIKARI, J.)
