ORDER
27.04.2026 None appears on behalf of the petitioner on call.
2. It is also seen that on 04.04.2025, the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner sought for 2(two) weeks time for impleadment of necessary parties.
3. Ms. R Deka, the learned counsel who appears on behalf of respondent Nos. 2 to 5 submits that there is no willful and deliberate violation on the part of the respondent Nos.2 to 5 inasmuch as, the said respondents have taken steps for compliance of the order dated 26.02.2014 passed in WP(C)No.879/2014. However, without the impleadment of the necessary parties, the instant proceedings cannot be brought to its logical conclusion.
4. This Court has also taken note of that inspite of the said aspect being brought to the notice of the petitioner, no steps has been taken by the petitioner to file any application for impleadment of the necessary parties, though time was taken on 04.04.2025.
5. It is the opinion of this Court that the petitioner seems to be not interested in pursuing the instant proceedings and further without the impleadment of necessary parties, the instant contempt proceedings cannot be proceeded with.
6. Accordingly, the contempt proceedings stands dropped. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
