Srinagar, April 08:  Division Bench of Chief Justice Pankaj Mithal and Justice Sindhu Sharma has initiated contempt proceedings against the Chairman and Secretary of Public Services Commission for not filling up the post of Deputy Controller Drugs and Food Control Organization and directed them to appear before the court to show cause as to why they not be punished for defiance of court orders.

The Court vide its judgment had issued certain directions and one of it was to direct the State Public Service Commission to immediately accord consideration to the proposal received from the Health and Medical Education Department for filling up the post of Deputy Controller, Drugs and Food Control Organization on substantive basis and to conclude the matter latest within eight weeks from the date of constitution of the Commission.

But as usual, the Commission had not accorded consideration to the said proposal within a time prescribed or even till the initiation of the present contempt proceedings.

So why , the court said that we are prima facie satisfied that the officers of the PSC are in contempt. We, therefore, direct the Chairman and the Secretary of the PSC to appear in person before this court on 27.05.2021 to show cause why they may not be charged for contempt of the court.
