HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE WASIM SADIQ NARGAL, JUDGE.
ORDER 04.05.2026
01. The instant contempt petition arises out of an order/judgment passed by this Court, whereby a direction was issued to the Deputy Commissioner, Budgam/Collector Land Acquisition, Srinagar (Food Spill Channel), to consider the case of the petitioner for payment of compensation in respect of the trees, after obtaining necessary assessment reports from the Forest Department, along with the matter of enhancement of compensation for the land, as directed vide order dated 26.07.2021, in accordance with law, most expeditiously and preferably within a period of three months. Since the aforesaid order was not complied with, the instant contempt petition was filed, in which notice was issued on 20.12.2021.
02. Mr. Jehangir Ahmad Dar, learned Government Advocate appearing on behalf of the respondents submits that the order/judgment 32 Regular
passed by the Hon’ble Division Bench has since been complied with and a detailed consideration order dated 28.04.2026 has been passed, a copy whereof has been provided to this Court. A perusal whereof reveals that the case of the petitioner has been duly considered in conformity with the order/judgment passed by the Hon’ble Division Bench and the available record and has been found to be devoid of merit and accordingly stands rejected. A copy of the consideration order has been provided to Mr. Nisar Ahmad Bhat, learned counsel for the petitioner and the copy of the same has also been furnished to this Court which has been taken on record.
03. Since the direction passed by the Hon’ble Division Bench was only to the extent of considering the case of the petitioner and such
consideration has been accorded by virtue of the aforesaid order, the order passed by the Hon’ble Division Bench stands complied with and no case of contempt is made out. Accordingly, the proceedings in the instant contempt petition are closed. Rule, if any, shall stand discharged. However, the petitioner shall be at liberty to challenge the said order by way of appropriate proceedings, if so advised.
04. Contempt petition- CCP(D) No.53/ 2021 stands disposed of.
