Rajendra Singh Panwar Vs Jay Prakash & Anr. (Uttarakhand High Court)
The Uttarakhand High Court dismissed a contempt petition alleging non-compliance with an earlier writ order directing CIBIL to decide the petitioner’s representation within three months. The Court noted that a previous contempt petition on the same issue had already been closed after the Chairman of CIBIL stated on affidavit that a decision had been taken. Since the same order and allegation were being raised again, and compliance had already been recorded, the Court found no reason to issue fresh notice and dismissed the contempt petition.
