JUDGMENT :

A.S. Anand, J. - Permissiveness of the judicial system which enabled the contemner to file innumerable petitions claiming the same relief arising out of the same cause of action undeterred by its refusal, on various occasions by this Court, coupled with the indulgence and sympathy shown by this Court, appears to have emboldened the respondent-contemner to cast unfounded and unwarranted aspersions and make scurrilous and indecent attacks against this Court and its Judges in wild, intemperate and even abusive language. Narration of facts to point out the extent to which the contemner has abused the process of the Court and how indulgence and sympathy shown by this Court has been ?exploited? by him is not only desirable but necessary to appreciate how and why contempt proceedings have been initiated against him.

2. Shri Roshan Lal Ahuja (hereinafter referred to as the ?contemner?) was appointed as a Draftsman Grade II in the pay scale of Rs 205-7-240-8-280 in 1964 with the Defence Research and Development Organisation, Ministry of Defence, Government of India. On June 28, 1970, he was reduced in rank to the post of Draftsman Grade III in the scale of Rs 150-5-175-6-205-EB-7-2
