2019 (8) TMI 1459 - SC - Indian LawsContempt Petition - appearance in the test held by AICTE (All India Council for Technical Education) - addition of higher qualification i.e. B.Tech (Civil) - HELD THAT:- In the present case serious objection has been raised on behalf of Department that the concerned candidates had enrolled themselves in courses leading to Degrees in Engineering through Distance Education Mode without express permission of the Department and/or the Department did not recognise the Degrees in Engineering awarded through Distance Education Mode or that the concerned candidates were not granted any study leave to pursue such courses. If the Degrees were so obtained in violation of the norms and parameters laid down by the concerned Department, the matter assumes completely different complexion. The directions issued by this Court in the Judgment and the Order never directed to confer such advantages which the candidates were otherwise not enjoying on the date when the Judgment and clarificatory Order were passed. If there was serious infirmity in the Degrees so obtained by the candidates, the matter ought to be sorted out either through representation or through properly instituted challenge in that behalf. If the promotion was not granted and was not being enjoyed as on the day when the judgment was passed, there was no violation of any direction issued by this Court. There are no violation on part of the alleged Contemnors. These Contempt Petitions are dismissed - Each of the petitioners shall deposit ₹ 5000/- by way of costs in the concerned Department within four weeks, failing which the Department shall recover the same in accordance with law.
