STATESMAN MAZDOOR UNION vs RAVINDER KUMAR

The Supreme Court addressed multiple contempt petitions arising from WP (C) No. 246 of 2011, emphasizing the need for compliance with its earlier orders. The Court reiterated that failure to comply with its directives constitutes contempt under the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971, specifically under Section 2(b). The Court held that the respondents must adhere to the stipulated timelines for compliance, and non-compliance would attract appropriate penalties, thereby reinforcing the authority of judicial orders.
