ORDER
24.04.2026
Vide this petition, the petitioner seeks initiation of the contempt
proceedings against the respondent-Authorities for not implementing the
judgment dated March 03, 2015 rendered in SWP No. 521/2015 (Mohd. Shoket
Khan Vs. State and ors.).
A bare reading of the order referred to above indicates that the petition
preferred by the petitioner was disposed of by the Writ Court with a direction to
the respondent-Authorities to consider the claim of the petitioner in the light of
the judgments passed in SWP No. 2288/2012, 1263/2006 and 286/2014.
Response/objections on behalf of the respondents have been
submitted. And, per the averments set out in para-7 thereof, the claim of the
petitioner was examined by the respondent-Authorities with reference to the
rules, Government orders issued from time to time as also the provisions laid
down in the Scheme. But it was found that the relief claimed for retrospective
effect of service w.e.f. 01.10.2010 was untenable. Thus, it appears that nothing
substantive survives in the petition.
Accordingly, the same is disposed of as having been rendered
infructuous. However, in the event any dispute/cause of action/interest still
survives, the petitioner is at liberty to move an appropriate application for
revival of the present petition and its decision on merits.
