    The High Court of Jharkhand dismissed Munwashi Devi's contempt petition against the State of Jharkhand and its officials for non-compliance with a 2024 court order regarding demarcation work completion. The court found the contempt case not maintainable since the demarcation work had already been completed and the underlying writ petition remained pending, allowing the parties to raise all issues in that proceeding instead.
