Ajay Kumar Vs. Naveen Puri CMP No.25891 of 2024 in COPC No.343 of 2021 07.04.2025 Present: Mr. Daleep Singh Kaith, Advocate, for the applicant/petitioner. Mr. Anup Rattan, Advocate General, with Mr. Rajan Kahol, Mr. Vishal Panwar and Mr. B.C. Verma, Additional Advocates General, with Mr. Ravi Chauhan, Deputy Advocate General, respondent. Reply filed on behalf of respondent reveals that case of the petitioner has already been processed for appointment on compassionate grounds, but since his name is at Serial No.52 of the waiting list, appointment, if any, on compassionate grounds shall be offered to him after 51 candidates, who are already in line. Since pursuant to directions contained in the mandate contained in the judgment, alleged to have been violated, case of the petitioner has been processed and conscious decision has been already taken to provide him employment on compassionate grounds, no action of respondent can be said to be contumacious. In view of the above, there appears to be no justification for this Court to keep the present application alive and accordingly the same is disposed of with the direction to respondent to ensure that as and when petitioner’s turn comes, he be offered appointment on compassionate grounds, failing which, petitioner shall be at liberty to file appropriate proceedings in the appropriate Court of law for implementation and execution of the judgment, alleged to have been violated.
