Howa Bibi & Ors. v. Abid Hussain
Case brief
What is this about?
Contempt application dismissed by Reetobroto Kumar Mitra, J.; case CPAN 435 of 2019, order dated 25.04.2025; applicants: The Managing Committee, Moulana Abul Kalam Azad Senior Madrasah now Madrasah Shiksha Kendra (represented by Howa Bibi & Ors.), advocate Mr. Golam Mastafa; respondent: Mr. Abid Hussain; background: earlier contempt application dismissed on 12.11.2018 as misconceived/not maintainable, with added liberty to apply afresh; petitioners' fresh application of 28.11.2018 allegedly ignored; holding: order of 12.11.2018 cast no responsibility on the concerned authority, hence no willful or deliberate violation of any direction; outcome: application dismissed, no costs.
What did the court decide?
The order of November 12, 2018 merely gave the petitioners a right to apply afresh before the concerned authority; it stopped short of casting any responsibility on the concerned officer or authority to take steps on the basis of such representation.
