Appearance : Mr. Subhrangsu Panda, Adv. Ms. Bratati Pramanick, Adv. Ms. Haritri Roy, Adv. Mr. Anupam Singha, Adv. … for the petitioner The Court: Mr. Subhrangsu Panda, learned Advocate appears for the petitioner. None appears for the alleged contemnors, nor any accommodation has been sought for. This is a contempt proceeding arising from a judgment dated June 17, 2025. Parties have preferred their respective appeals from the said judgment. By a judgment of the Hon’ble Division Bench dated August 6, 2026, the appeal of the Coal Company was dismissed and the appeal of the writ petitioner was allowed to the extent granting interest. This Court is informed that the principal amount has already been paid and the interest is left outstanding. 2 CC/8/2026 A.R, J. In view of the above, this Court is of the view that once the principal amount has been paid following the direction of this Court, the contempt does not survive any further. Since the interest has been granted by the Hon’ble Division Bench, if the same is not paid, the lis will lie before the Hon’ble Division Bench. In view of the above, this contempt application CC/8/2026 stands dropped and closed. The application CC/8/2026 stands disposed of. (ANIRUDDHA ROY, J.) RS
