    The Patna High Court dismissed Uma Kant Roy's contempt petition challenging non-compliance with a prior order to reconsider his pay fixation claim. The court found no contempt because the District Programme Officer had rejected his claim on the ground that his post-graduation degree from the Indian Institute of Human Rights, New Delhi, was from a fake institution and therefore invalid.
