¶1Heard Sri Parmanand Shukla, who appears in person as this is his personal case and Sri Manish Kumar, learned Standing Counsel.

¶2Sri Manish Kumar has stated that considering the grievance of the petitioner for getting appropriate security, the Superintendent of Police, Barabanki has considered the grievance of the petitioner and passed the order dated

28.03.2021, on the basis of recommendation of Threat Perception Committee, whereby it has been indicated that in the light of Government Order dated 09.05.2014, the petitioner does come within the category of a person to whom the security should be provided, therefore, no order has been passed in favour of the petitioner by the S.P., Barabanki. Sri Manish Kumar has further stated that if the petitioner is aggrieved from the aforesaid order, he may assail the same before the competent court of law, inasmuch as the authenticity or validity of the aforesaid order may not be tested by the Contempt Court.

¶3The aforesaid submission of Sri Manish Kumar finds strength, inasmuch as the authenticity or validity of the order being passed by the Superintendent of Police, Barabanki, on the basis of recommendation of the Threat Perception Committee, turning down the request of the petitioner for providing the security, may not be tested by the Contempt Court.

¶4Accordingly, the instant contempt petition is dismissed. Notice, if any, stands discharged.

¶5However, it is always open for the petitioner to assail the aforesaid order before the competent court of law.

¶6It is needless to say that if the petitioner assailed the aforesaid order, he may very well explain the delay and laches apprising the Court that the contempt petition has been decided today i.e. 20.12.2023 [Rajesh Singh Chauhan,J.] Order Date :- 20.12.2023 kkv/ High Court of Judicature at Allahabad, Lucknow Bench
