CPAN 960 of 2024 in WPA 11968 of 2023 Krishnapada Dash Vs.

Jayasri Ray Chaudhuri Mr. Dyutiman Paul ...for the Applicant Mr. Tapas Kr. Dey ...for the alleged Contemnor 05-05-2025 AKG Ct. 15 By filing this contempt application, the applicant submits that although the current House Rent Allowance (HRA) has been released in favour of the petitioner, the arrears of HRA have not yet been disbursed.

However, the order dated June 23, 2023, is unambiguous in this regard. Specifically, the order clarified the issue of arrears as follows:

"I am, however, of the view that if the State is directed to refund the amount already recovered from the petitioner at this stage the same may amount to giving a final relief to the petitioner before disposal of the pending appeal (MAT 1023 of 2021).

In that view of the matter this writ petition is disposed of by directing the respondents not to further recover any amount on account of the house rent allowance from the petitioner till the disposal of MAT 1023 of 2021."

In that view of the matter, the applicant cannot claim any arrear at this juncture in compliance with the order dated June 23, 2023.

Accordingly, CPAN of is dismissed.

Urgent certified website copies of this order, if applied for, be made available to the parties upon compliance with the requisite formalities.
