Order
02/12/2025
1. The present contempt petition has been filed alleging non- compliance of the interim order dated 19.03.2024 passed in S.B. Civil Writ Petition No. 2630/2024. It is submitted that the effect and operation of the order dated 11.02.2024, whereby the
petitioner was placed under suspension, was stayed by this Court, however, despite that the petitioner has not been permitted to join.
2. Aggrieved by the said interim order, the State of Rajasthan preferred D.B. Special Appeal (Writ) Petition No.252/2024, which came to be dismissed vide order dated 08.04.2024. The said order was further assailed by the State Government before the Hon’ble Supreme Court by filing a Special Leave Petition (Civil) Diary No(s). 36702/2024, however, the said SLP met the same fate and was dismissed vide order dated 28.02.2025.
3. In the meanwhile, the present contempt petition was filed by the petitioner, during the pendency of which, no-confidence motion was moved by the members of Panchayat Samiti Uchchain, which was passed on 12.08.2024. As the contempt petition remained pending, the petitioner under legal advice, preferred a writ petition before the Hon’ble Supreme Court by invoking Article 32 of the Constitution of India seeking directions to the High Court to list and dispose of the contempt petition filed by him expeditiously. In the said writ petition, the Hon’ble Supreme Court vide its order dated 01.09.2025, after considering the entire factual matrix as placed before it by the petitioner, issued directions for the implementation of the interim order dated 19.03.2024. Paragraphs No. 6 to 9 of the order dated 01.09.2025 read as under:-
“6. In the normal course, we would not have entertained the petition of this nature but the petitioner is seeking implementation of a relief that he has already got by invoking a remedy under Article 226. It is distressing to see that the petitioner has not received the benefit of direction issued by the learned Single Judge, and the Division Bench, as upheld by this Court.
7. In these circumstances, all that we need to do is to ensure that the interim order dated 19.03.2024 is implemented without any further delay. In this view, we direct all authorities to implement the order dated 19.03.2024. The High Court shall also ensure that its order is implemented without any delay whatsoever.
8. With these directions, the writ petition is disposed of and the accompanying interlocutory application(s), if any, also stands disposed of.
9. As we are directing implementation of the orders passed by the High Court, we are of the opinion that there is no need for issuance of notice to the respondent-State.”
4. Thereafter, Misc. Application No.1912/2025 was moved by the State Government before the Hon’ble Supreme Court, which came up for consideration on 14.11.2025 and the Hon’ble Supreme Court after taking note of the fact that
