This Contempt petition has been preferred by the applicants under Article 215 of the Constitution of India read with Section 12 of the Contempt of Courts Act for non-compliance of the order dated 20.12.2023 passed in WPS No.9596/2023 and other connected matters. 2. This Court has passed the following order in Writ Petition (S) No.9596/2023 in para 5, annexed as Annexure-C/1 :- “5. On the submission made by the learned Counsels appearing for the parties without entering into the merits of the case at this stage, this petition is disposed of directing respondents No. 4 to 6 to consider and decide the pending representation of the petitioners i.e. Annexure/P-4 within ‘three months’ from the receipt of copy of this order in accordancewith relevant law and rules applicable to the field of all the petitioners.” 3. Learned counsel for the applicants would submit that as informed by the counsel for the respondents, representation (Annexure-C/2) filed by the 3 applicants has already been decided, but fixation of salary has not been made in accordance with the circular issued by the respondent No.1. 4. Counsel appearing for the respondents submits that copy of decision taken by the Collector and District Mission Director, Samagra Shiksha, Ambikapur, District Surguja (C.G.) dated 15.03.2024 has been received, but the same has not been filed, whereby the representation filed by the applicants has been decided, which is also contended by the counsel for the applicants. 5. Counsel appearing for the respondents is directed to file aforesaid document along with covering memo during the course of the day. 6. Vide order dated 20.12.2023, this Court has directed respondents to decide representation (Annexure-C/2) filed by the applicants within 3 months, since representation has already been decided by the respondent No.2, as such order has been complied with, thus, no case of contempt is made out. Hence, the instant contempt petition is dismissed. 7. If, applicants are not satisfied with the order passed by the respondent No.2 with regard to their representation, then such fact gives fresh cause of action to the applicants, it could not be termed as non-compliance of order passed by the Court. Therefore, they may take recourse to law for redressal of their grievance. 8. In view of above, the instant contempt petition stands disposed of.
