The said letter was written by the Delhi Ad- ministration to the respondents directing them to allot a plot measuring 250 sq.yds in lieu of petitioner's acquired land. The copy of the letter is at pagc-16 of the paper book. Mr.Singh has contended that after the disposal of the writ petition, as I he respondents have' not done anything, the petitioner sent a legal notice dated 24lh January, 1994 to the respondents as to why contempt proceedings he nl initialed against them if a plot of the si/.e of 250 sq.yds. was not allotted to the petitioner as per the orders of the High Court.
