DATE : 07.07.2016.

By this contempt petition, the petitioners seek action against the respondents for willful disobedience of the judgment, dated 03/02/2015 in Writ Petition No.3504 of 2014.

It is stated on behalf of the petitioners that despite the direction to the respondents to treat the petitioners as qualified teachers from the date of the appointment and pay them the consequential benefits, the petitioners are not paid. Shri Rode, the learned Assistant Government Pleader, has tendered an affidavit-in-reply on behalf of respondent No.3, in the Court today. The same is accepted on record. It is stated in the affidavit that the entire payment has been made to the petitioners and the delay in making the payment was due to administrative exigency. It is stated that the proposal in respect of the petitioners was verified and submitted to the office of the Accountant General and thereafter, the entire salary is paid to the petitioners. By accepting the statement made in the affidavit-in-reply, we dispose of the contempt petition with no order as to costs. JUDGE JUDGE KHUNTE
