On perusal of the 3 proceedings, it appears that the said proceedings are served to the petitioner under proper acknowledgement. 4) As the representation of the petitioner has been considered in accordance with the orders of this Court and appropriate orders are passed by the concerned authority, in my considered view, no further adjudication is required in the present contempt court. 5) Accordingly, this Contempt Case is closed.
