Issue notice. Mr. Ansari, learned ASC accepts notice for respondent No. 3 and states that the delay presumably could be because of the fact that the matter was decided twice and was remanded back twice. 4. However, for the order I propose to pass, I do not think fit to issue notice to the other respondents. 5. It is directed that the concerned SDM shall conclude and pass the necessary order in accordance with law within a period of 12 weeks from today. 6. With these directions, the petition is disposed of.” 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that since the proceedings has not been concluded by the SDM within a period of 12 weeks, as directed vide the aforesaid order, the present contempt petition has been filed. 5.
