Summary: On July 14, 2011, the Supreme Court dismissed the contempt petition filed by Ravi Prakash Gupta, holding that his grievance regarding cadre allotment in Chhattisgarh should be pursued before the appropriate authority, not through contempt proceedings. The Court also found no substance in his claim for back wages, as prior orders had only directed notional pay fixation with actual salary from his actual joining date. The Court dismissed both the contempt petition and I.A. No. 5/2010 without prejudice to pursuing remedies before competent forums.
