3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner's complaint is still undecided, which is reflected from the order dated 24.03.2026, whereby the petitioner was directed to appear before the Office of the District Magistrate on 27.03.2026 at 05:00 p.m. at Rudrapur, District Udham Singh Nagar.
4. Petitioner has not pleaded in the contempt petition anything to reflect that, pursuant to the order dated 24.03.2026, he visited the Office of the District Magistrate on 27.03.2026 along with all the
UKHC010121882026
2026:UHC:5814 documents relevant to the case.
