ORAL ORDER
(PER: HON'BLE MR. VIBHU BAKHRU, CHIEF JUSTICE)
1. The complainant has filed the present complaint alleging willful disobedience of the status quo order dated 25.04.2018 passed in RFA No.506/2018. Under the said order, the parties were directed to maintain status quo as to the schedule property which was described as a vacant site, except for a bore well.
2. The complainant alleges that the fence has been removed. However, there is no dispute that the status of the land in question continues to be a vacant land.
3. In view of the above, we do not consider it apposite to initiate proceedings under the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971.
HC-KAR
4. The complaint is, accordingly, closed.
