    The Patna High Court disposed of a contempt petition filed by three women (Sadhna Sharma, Madhu Kumari, and Kanchan Kumari) against Bihar education officials for alleged willful disobedience of a March 4, 2024 order. The court found that the Divisional Commissioner, Munger Division, had already reinstated the petitioners via an order dated May 25, 2024, thereby mooting the contempt action. The petition was disposed of with liberty to the petitioners to pursue further relief if any grievance remained.
