Disposal: DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The contempt petition is disposed of as withdrawn.

Summary

The petitioner, Ganesh Hari Das, filed a contempt petition seeking enforcement of an earlier order. He later submitted a letter dated 10 September 2026 stating that he had complied with the contempt order and requested the withdrawal of the petition. The court took the letter on record and, after verifying the compliance, decided to dispose of the contempt petition as withdrawn. No further hearing was required. The petition was therefore dismissed without any further orders.
