29.05.2024 (Vijay Bishnoi, CJ)

Mr. S.R. Baruah, learned counsel puts in appearance on behalf of the substituted respondent No.3. It is submitted that the Circle Officer, Guwahati Revenue Circle has already handed over the possession of land measuring 5 Bigha 2 Katha covered by Dag No.370, 381 and 382 of vill: Sahar Ulubari Pt. III under Ulubari Mouza to the Chief Executive Officer, Guwahati Metropolitan Development Authority for establishment of children's park vide Handing Over/Taking Over Certificate dated

13.12.2022. A copy of the said certificate is produced before us which is taken on record. Page No.# 4/4 This Contempt petition is filed on behalf of the petitioners alleging that the order passed by this Court dated 26.08.2019 in PIL No.70/2018 has not been complied with. Vide order dated 26.08.2019, this Court issued a direction to the respondents in the aforesaid writ petition (PIL) to utilise the aforementioned land for the purpose of construction of children's part after removing encroachment from the said land. Since the possession of land in question has already been handed over to the Chief Executive Officer, Guwahati Metropolitan Development Authority and considering the fact that the authorities of the Guwahati Metropolitan Development Authority are neither the party in the writ petition (PIL) nor in this contempt petition, we are of the view that the order passed by this Court has substantially been complied with. However, if the petitioners have any grievance regarding non-establishment of the children's park, they are free to pursue their cause/causes before the Guwahati Metropolitan Development Authority. With the above observations, this contempt petition is disposed of.
