The petitioner had said that the court on March 23 this year directed the Additional Chief Secretary to decide his representation on the declaration of result of a Departmental Promotion Committee within six weeks but the order has not been complied with.
The court on Friday (June 4) asked the officer why he should not be punished for deliberately flouting its order.

The court was of the view that prima facie its order has been flouted.
