The contempt case filed by ACS AIGETOA BSNL CO Chapter against Shri A Robert J Ravi (CMD BSNL) and others was heard today before the Hon’ble PCAT. The following remedies have been pleaded before the Bench:

1] Take cognizance of the present Contempt Petition and initiate appropriate contempt proceedings against the alleged Contemnors (CMD BSNL and others) under Section 17 of the Administrative Tribunals Act, 1985, read with Section 2(b) of the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971, and the Contempt of Courts (CAT) Rules, 1992, and issue notice to the alleged Contemnors to show cause as to why they should not be proceeded against and punished for wilful and deliberate disobedience of the final order dated 22.04.2026 passed by this Hon’ble Tribunal in O.A. No. 3677/2025;

2] Hold that the continued failure and refusal of the Respondents to implement the final order dated 22.04.2026, coupled with the issuance of the Office/Modification Order dated 05.08.2026, purporting to modify the transfer order dated 02.05.2025, which had already been quashed by this Hon’ble Tribunal, constitutes wilful, deliberate and contumacious disobedience of the final order dated 22.04.2026 and an impermissible attempt to circumvent the binding directions of this Hon’ble Tribunal;

3] Direct the Respondents to forthwith implement, in its true letter and spirit, the final order dated 22.04.2026, including by duly considering and giving effect to the Petitioner’s joining report dated 27.04.2026, permitting the Petitioner to join/resume service in accordance with the said order, and extending to him all consequential service and monetary benefits flowing therefrom, in accordance with law;

4] Impose exemplary costs upon the Respondents/alleged Contemnors for their blatant and deliberate disregard of the binding order of this Hon’ble Tribunal and for attempting to circumvent and defeat the effect of the final order dated 22.04.2026 through the subsequent Office/Modification Order dated 05.08.2026, and pass such further order(s) as this Hon’ble Tribunal may deem fit and proper in the interests of justice.

The Bench has issued notice to all the alleged Contemnors. The next date of hearing has been fixed for 16th October 2026.
