ORDER 11.02.2026
10. 1. Heard learned counsel for the Petitioners and
learned counsel for the State. p. 2
2. The CONTC has been filed for the alleged violation of the interim order passed by this Court vide order date 28.11.2022.
3. Referring to the Revised Show Cause in Paragraph-10, the State authorities have taken stand that no new developmental work was commenced in that GP for the financial year 2022-23, after the passing of the interim order passed by this Court.
The same is disputed by the learned counsel for the Petitioners.
4. Considering that the rival stand(s) comes within the realm of disputed questions of fact, this Court is not persuaded to hold that prima facie, there has been any violation of the interim order passed. Hence, this Court is not inclined to entertain this CONTC.
5. It shall be open for the Petitioners to ventilate their grievance before the State Authorities.
Such grievance shall be dealt in accordance with law, without being prejudiced by non- entertainment of the present CONTC.
6. Accordingly, the CONTC stands disposed of.
