Shri. N. C. Walimbe, Addl. GP a/w. Shri. Santosh A. Jadhav ‘B’ Panel Counsel for respondent no.5. _________________________ CORAM : RAJESH S. PATIL & ABHAY J. MANTRI, JJ. DATED : SEPTEMBER 23, 2026 P.C.: 1. By the present Contempt Petition, the petitioner is alleging that there is a contempt committed by the Kolhapur Municipal Corporation by not following the directions given in the order dated 12 October 2018 passed in Writ Petition No.7936 of 2018. 2. We have heard the learned counsel for both the sides. 1/3 adn 903-CP-164-2019-(C).doc 3. Paragraph Nos.8 and 9 of the order dated 12 October 2018 passed in Writ Petition No.7936 of 2018 read as under: “8. Accordingly the impugned order dated 16 April 2018 to the extent it blacklists the petitioner, is set aside. We direct the respondent Corporation to issue a fresh show cause notice specific to the issue of blacklisting. Such a notice be issued within a period of two weeks from today. The petitioner shall respond to the said notice within a period of two weeks after its receipt. 9. The Municipal Corporation after receipt of the reply may inform the petitioner of an appropriate date on which personal hearing would be accorded to the petitioner, and after hearing the petitioner, pass appropriate order on such show cause notice, in accordance with law.” 4. Mr. Adagule, appearing for the Municipal Corporation, submits that after the Contempt Petition was filed on 14 February 2019, the petitioner did not make any efforts to take the matter on board. 5. Thereafter, the Corporation, following the directions given in the order dated 12 October 2018, issued a fresh show cause notice to the petitioner and, thereafter, an order dated 1 January 2019 was passed by the City Engineer of the Corporation. 6. Being dissatisfied with the order dated 1 January 2019 passed by the City Engineer of the Corporation, the petitioner filed one more Writ Petition, being Writ Petition No.1847 of 2019. 7. In the said Writ Petition, the parties were heard and, by an 2/3 adn 903-CP-164-2019-(C).doc order dated 14 February 2019, the petition was allowed to be withdrawn as disposed of in view of the statement made by the learned counsel appearing for the Corporation in the said matter, thereby withdrawing the order dated 1 January 2019 passed by the City Engineer. 8. It is nobody's case that thereafter any action has been taken by the Corporation blacklisting the petitioner. 9. In view of the same, in our view, there is no merit in the present Contempt Petition. 10. Hence, the Contempt Petition stands dismissed. (ABHAY J. MANTRI, J.) (RAJESH S. PATIL, J.) 3/3 adn
