Since, despite there being specific direction to do the needful, as taken note hereinabove, respondents have failed to grant the benefit to the petitioners in terms of the aforesaid judgment, petitioners have approached this Court in the instant proceedings. 3. Mr. Raman Jamalta, learned counsel representing the respondents, while accepting notice on behalf of the respondents, states that though he has every reason to believe and presume that by now aforesaid judgment/ order must have been complied with, but if not, same would be complied with within a period of eight weeks from today. 4.
