Judgment text excerpt
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 non-compliance 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 orders issued, failing which appropriate punitive measures would be taken against them.
