DATE : 18/09/2019 Learned Assistant Government Pleader appears on behalf of the respondent and submits that reply of the respondent would be filed during the course of the day. He also submits that he has received instructions that order has been passed by the Scrutiny Committee yesterday. The respondent - Nitin Tayde is also personally present in the Court. He has produced before us for our perusal the order passed by the Scrutiny Committee on 17/09/2019. The order shows that the tribe claim has been

1809cp253.19.odt invalidated and the caste certificate has been cancelled and confiscated.

The judgment of which contempt is made had directed the respondent to make an attempt to complete verification within next six months.

Although there is no material before us to enable us to conclude that any sincere effort was made, considering the nature of the judgment of this Court and the order passed yesterday by the Scrutiny Committee, we are of the view that the delay caused in the matter could not be said to be intentional and as such, we are also of the opinion that now this matter has been rendered infructuous.

The contempt petition is disposed of accordingly. No order as to costs.

The original order is returned to the respondent. JUDGE JUDGE Wadkar, P.S.
