BIJAN SIKDAR DEBAPRIYA MITRA vs STATE OF WEST BENGAL AND ORS. — WPA/6230/2025

Case Summary: WPA 6230/2025 - Contempt Application The High Court at Calcutta dismissed the contempt application against the University of Calcutta Registrar, finding that while there was delay in complying with the Court's March 21, 2025 order to consider the petitioner's representation within eight weeks, the Registrar ultimately complied by passing a reasoned order on August 27, 2025. Justice Jay Sengupta held that since the alleged contemnor achieved compliance with the Court's direction, albeit belatedly, no further contempt proceedings were warranted, leaving the petitioner to challenge the substantive rejection order through appropriate channels.
