2. On behalf of applicant- Jagdish Singh Yadav this petition has been preferred for review/modification of the order dated 5.8.2013 passed in Writ Petition No.5246/2013 (PIL) by the Coordinate Division Bench of this Court, whereby such petition filed on behalf of respondent No.1 herein was disposed of with a direction that authority shall consider representation of such petitioner/respondent No.1 herein (Annexure P-1) submitted by him in such petition with a further direction to such authority that if it is found that there is encroachment, the authority shall take proper steps in regard to removal of such encroachment within the period of six weeks from the date of receipt of copy of such order. Pursuant to that, after taking cognizance on the representation of respondent No.1, the authorities of the State had issued a show-cause notice dated 12.8.2013 to the present applicant under section 248 of the M.P.

“ This petition has been filed against a show cause notice.
In our opinion, this petition is premature at this stage. Counsel for the petitioner submitted that reply of the show cause notice has already filed.
In this view of the matter, competent authority is directed to consider the reply of the petitioner, before taking any action in accordance with law.
With this observation, this petition stands disposed of.
No order as to costs.”
and in compliance of such order as per the averments, the applicant has approached to the authority with the reply of the show-cause notice under section 248 of MPLRC, but such reply was neither considered nor decided by the concerning authority and some operative order was passed against the present applicant. Thereafter, no steps or proceeding was taken against the applicant by the State authorities, as submitted by the applicant's counsel herein.
3. Apart the aforesaid, when the order dated 5.8.2013 passed in aforesaid Writ Petition No.5246/2013 (PIL) was not complied with by the authorities, then respondent No.1 herein had approached this Court with a connected Contempt Petition No.131/14 and in pendency of such Contempt Petition, on behalf of the applicant who was not a party in the aforesaid earlier petition [Writ Petition No.5246/2013 (PIL)], this review petition has been filed to review the aforesaid order dated 5.8.2013 passed in aforesaid Writ Petition No.5246/2013 (PIL) on dated 12.2.2015.
