BASHIR AHMAD MIR (SENIOR CITIZEN). …Petitioner (s) Through: Mr. M.A. Beigh, Advocate. VERSUS QAZI SARWAR, DIRECTOR URBAN LOCAL BODIES KMR SGR. Through: …Respondent(s) CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE SANJAY DHAR, JUDGE. ORDER 24-04-2026 01. The petitioner, through the medium of the present petition, has sought implementation of Order dated 23rd of July 2025 passed by the Writ Court, whereby the respondents have been directed to examine the case of the petitioner in light of the law laid down in judgement passed in WP (C) No. 2703/2023 dated 16.04.2025, as well as two other judgements referred by the petitioner during the course of the arguments. 02. The respondents have filed their Compliance Report, wherein they have stated that the claim of the petitioner has been rejected in terms of Consideration order dated 28th of January, 2026. 03. In the Consideration Order, it has been submitted that the principle laid down by the Supreme Court in Rafiq Masih’s case is not applicable to the present case, because the petitioner had mis-represented the facts at the time when upgradation followed by re-designation was granted in his favour, therefore his claim is not tenable. 04. The direction passed by the Writ Court was to consider the case of the petitioner. Since the respondents have considered the case of the petitioner and passed a Consideration Order, the direction of the Writ Court stands complied with. 05. In view of the above, the present contempt proceedings are closed and the contempt petition stands disposed of. However, if the petitioner has any grievance(s) with regard to the Consideration Order passed by the respondents, he is at liberty to challenge the same by availing appropriate remedy in accordance with law.
