order dated 25.07.2018 with a direction to the respondent Director Primary Education, Government of Jharkhand to take a decision within six weeks and if there is no legal impediment to pay within three weeks. The same order was passed in W.P.(S) No.5678/2018 and W.P.(S) No.5688/2018. When the order of the Court was not complied the petitioners were compelled to file Contempt (Civil) Nos.740/2018, 701/2019 and 717/2019. In the contempt proceeding, the contemnors were allowed time to file show cause. The respondent State allotted the required fund and sent the same in the account of drawing and disbursing officer and in the month of March, 2020 on the joint prayer of the counsels of the petitioner as well as the respondent State, the aforesaid Cont. Case (Civil) No.740 of 2018 was disposed of on 06.03.2020. By the impugned order, the direction was issued to withdraw the contempt petition otherwise the salary of the petitioners will not be paid w.e.f. June, 2020. In the same line, the order 03.09.2020 has been passed whereby again the same thing was repeated. In the light of these two orders, it is found that on the strength of not complying the earlier order for withdrawal of the contempt proceeding, these two orders have been passed and thereby the petitioners are not paid their salary w.e.f. June, 2020.
