                               -----------
05. 16.03.2011 Opposite party no.2, Principal Secretary,
Department of P.H.E.D is not present in person,
notwithstanding the order dated 2.2.2011. There is no
application for exemption from personal appearance on his
behalf. His conduct is contumacious. The Court however
refrains from proceeding against him in view of I.A. No.
1710 of 2011, filed on behalf of opposite party no. 1 and 4,
seeking extension of time for compliance with the order.
 The material facts have already been noticed in
 2
the earlier order of the Court and need not be reiterated.
I.A. No. 1710 of 2011 is allowed to the extent
that the extension of time sought for compliance of the
order is extended by four weeks from today.
If the order is not complied with by the next
occasion, opposite party no.2 shall remain present in
person. It is expected that he shall demonstrate more
sincerity to the orders of the Court than that he has
displayed today.
List this matter after four weeks at the same
position.
