This contempt petition has been filed alleging non-compliance of the order dated 05.02.2024 passed by this Court in Writ Petition (C) No. 674 of 2024 passed by this Court. 2. This Court has passed the following order in WPC No. 674 of 2024, in paragraphs 6 & 7, annexed as Annexure- C/1. “6. Taking into consideration the limited grievance of the petitioner to the effect that the electricity connection has not been provided to the petitioner despite regularization order passed by Deputy Director, Town and Country Planning due to a complaint made by 2 respondent No. 3/complainant – Keshav Vaishnave on 26.05.2023, the present petition is disposed of with a liberty to the petitioner to move a fresh application / representation before respondent No. 2 who, in turn, shall consider and decide the representation of the petitioner strictly in accordance with law expeditiously preferably within a period of 30 days from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order. 7. With the aforesaid observation (s) and direction (s), the instant Writ Petition is disposed of. 3. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that the applicant has filed application / representation before respondent No. 2, who has sent demand notice in respect of that application, whereas, plot purchased by the applicant has been regularized by the Government, therefore, contempt proceeding may be initiated against respondent. 4. Counsel for the respondent submits that in pursuance of the application / representation filed by the applicant, demand notice has been issued to him. As soon as he deposits the amount, electric connection will be provided to him, therefore, no case of contempt is made out. 5. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the material available on record. 6. Having considered the direction issued by this Court that application / representation filed by the applicant be decided by respondent No. 2 and the same has been decided by respondent No. 2. If there is any demand against the applicant with regard to providing him electric connection, then it is the duty of the applicant to deposit such amount. 3 7. Thus, since application / representation filed by the applicant has been decided by the respondents, therefore, I do not find any reason to proceed further in the matter initiating contempt proceeding against the respondent. 8. Accordingly, contempt proceeding is dropped and rule issued is discharged.
