The order dated 13.03.2024 passed in W.P.(S) No. 325 of 2024 by this Court was to effect that the opposite party were directed to consider the case of the petitioner and recommend the same to Bank for making the payment of family pension along with 6% statutory interest. 3. Learned counsel for the respondents submitted that the entire amount has been paid to the petitioner to the tune of Rs. 28 lakhs and the interest also. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner disputes and submits that the entire amount has not been paid, some amount is remained to be paid. 5. While going through the order dated 13.03.2024 passed in W.P.(S) No. 325 of 2024, I find that there is no quantification of any amount in the said order. This is a contempt application. This court cannot now assess and calculate the amount payable specially when the opposite parties are submitting that they have paid the entire amount. 6. Considering the aforesaid submission, no contempt is made out. 7. Accordingly, this contempt proceeding is dropped with liberty to the petitioner to challenge the decision of the opposite parties if at all he is aggrieved with the same.
