4. 03.08.2011 Learned counsel for the petitioner from Annexure A

and A/1 to the show cause submits that orders have been

passed promoting him to the Senior Selection Grade and Super

Selection Grade but the orders are silent on the aspect of

monetary benefits specifically directed by the Court. It is next

submitted that no decision has been taken on his claim for

promotion to the post of Assistant Engineer as apparent from

Annexure-C to the show cause.

Prima facie, the Court is satisfied that the opposite

parties have flouted the order of the Court.

Counsel for the State submits that the process of

consideration for the post of Assistant Engineer was going on.

Procedural compliance can be no defence in a

contempt proceeding.

If by the next date the order is not fully complied with

in totality, the opposite party no. 4 is directed to remain

present in person to show cause why charges be not framed

against him.

There is part compliance of the order. List at the

same position after eight weeks.
