Order
It is fairly conceded by the learned counsel for the petitioner that no orders have been issued disengaging the services of the petitioner. However, it is contended that there are no orders passed giving her work and the salary has also not been paid to her from January 2026.
Paragraph No.3 of the interim order of this Court dated 24.03.2026, made in WP.No.10412/2026 and WMP.No.11286/2026 reads as under:- ‘’3.Considering the above, there shall be an interim direction to the respondents not to take any coercive steps for disengagement of the petitioner till the disposal of the writ petition. ‘’
Therefore, the remedy available to the petitioner is only to get the writ petition heard and not by filing the contempt petition.
The contempt petition is accordingly closed.
