ORDER
31.08.2026 Order No. 02
1. This matter is taken up through hybrid mode.
2. Heard learned counsel appearing for the Parties.
3. On oral prayer made by learned counsel appearing for the Petitioner, she is permitted to correct the description of Opposite Party No.3 as Collector, Kataka in Court.
4. Learned Additional Standing Counsel produced the instruction so provided by the Department. It is contended that Government in the meantime has directed the Collector, Kataka to provide appointment to the petitioner as against any Group-C post available in the headquarter establishment. It is accordingly contended that since Opposite Party No.1 has directed to Opposite Party No.3 to provide appointment to the Petitioner as against any Group-C Post, the contempt petition has become infructuous.
5. Considering the instruction provided, this Court while disposing the CONTC directs Opposite Party No.3 to comply the direction issued by
Page 2 of 2. the State-Opposite Party No.1 as expeditiously as possible within a period of two months from the date receipt of this order.
6. The CONTC stands disposed of.
