ORDER
05.10.2026 In the present contempt proceeding, this Court, vide an order dated 21.08.2026, granted liberty to the petitioners to submit non- encumbrance certificate as well as fresh affidavit before the Circle Officer, Sribhumi within a period of 30 (thirty) days.
2. It was further directed that the concerned Circle Officer shall take into consideration those documents in connection with the earlier NOC application, which was rejected by a speaking order.
3. The learned counsel appearing on behalf of the District Commissioner cum District Registrar, Sribhumi has placed an instruction dated 03.10.2026, which is kept on record and marked with the letter “X”.
4. On a perusal of the said instructions, it is apparent that the petitioners have not submitted the affidavit and non-encumbrance certificate as per the liberty granted to the petitioners by the order dated 21.08.2026.
5. Considering above, this Court therefore, is not inclined to further proceed with the present contempt petition, for which the contempt proceedings stands dropped.
6. This Court further observes that dropping of the instant proceeding shall not prejudice the petitioners to assail the rejection order, if so advised. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
