The bench of Justice Mahendra Dayal observed that the state government had not formally notified quashing of its earlier order and that the government had not paid Rs 25,000 to Nutan Thakur who was petitioner in the case. The Court has asked the top home department official to respond in three weeks to its contempt notice.
