The only direction issued by this Court vide order dated 20.12.2024 passed in CWP-34795-2024 was to consider and decide the representation dated 20.09.2024 within a period of 4 months in a just, fair and reasonable manner. The said representation had been decided by a speaking order dated 23.01.2025 which has been appended with the petition itself as Annexure P-2. 5. In view of the fact that a decision had already been taken and a speaking order has also been passed, the present contempt petition is not maintainable and the same is accordingly dismissed. Pending applications, if any, also stand disposed off. 07.05.2025 (ALKA SARIN) Aman Jain JUDGE NOTE: Whether speaking/non-speaking: Speaking Whether reportable: Yes/No AMAN JAIN 2025.05.08 09:37 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this order/judgment
