JUDGMENT
The learned Government Pleader submits on the basis of fax
message No.A-1167/08 received by him that the interest on solatium
in respect of the above case was calculated and the same has been
submitted to the District Collector for allotment of funds. As and when
funds are allotted from the higher authorities, payment will be
released. Counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is hard-
pressed for money and a time frame should be set for releasing
payments. Having considered the submissions, I am of the view that it
is too early for initiating contempt action against the respondents.
However, the Contempt Case will stand disposed of issuing the
following directions:
The additional 2nd respondent is directed to make requisite funds
available with the 1st respondent so that the interest portion of the
redetermined compensation can be released to the petitioner at the
earliest. The funds will be made available by the additional 2nd
respondent within three months from today and the 1st respondent will
release payment within three weeks of receiving the funds.
