2. When the matter is taken up for hearing, the learned Additional Government Pleader appearing for the Respondent/Contemnor submits that pursuant to the order passed by this Court in W.P.No.29266 of 2022 dated 07.11.2022. Though the respondent issued summons directing the petitioner to appear on 04.07.2023 and 04.09.2023 for measuring the subject property, the petitioner did not appear on the said dates, due to which, the respondent was unable to measure the subject property and thereby, the respondent rejected the petitioner's representation vide proceedings dated 25.10.2023.

3. In view of the submissions of the learned Additional Government Pleader, this Court is of the view that there is no wilful default on the part of the respondent / contemnor and accordingly this Contempt Petition is closed.
