Taking into consideration the fact that the order dated 22.03.2024 has already been confirmed by the Hon’ble Supreme Court vide order dated 15.01.2026, this Court, as a last chance, grants two months’ time to the Opposite Parties-Contemnors to ensure that the order passed this Court is implemented in its letter and spirit, failing which, the Contemnors shall be asked to appear in person before this Court and to explain as to why a proceeding under the Contempt of Courts Act shall not be initiated against Page 3 of 3. them for wilful and deliberate violation of this Court’s order. 8.
