J U D G M E N T
This contempt of court case is filed, complaining that the interim order dated 08..07.2015 passed by this Court in W.P. (C).No.20532 of 2015 is not complied with. Recently, the writ petition pertaining to the interim order itself was disposed of by this Court. In my considered opinion, the interim order, as of now, is not surviving.
The Contempt Case is closed accordingly.
