Summary

The petitioner, Seema Raju Pol, filed a contempt petition alleging that Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd. and others failed to comply with a court order dated 09/03/2016 directing the reassessment of her marks. The High Court examined whether the respondents had complied with the contempt order. It was found that the respondents had indeed complied with the direction to reassess/evaluate the petitioner’s marks. Consequently, the court held that there was no longer any ground for contempt. The contempt petition was therefore disposed of.

            2.           It appears that as per the order dated 09/03/2016, the
            concerned respondent has complied with the order in the contempt
