O R D E R
1 We have heard Mr Gaichangpou Gangmei and Mr V Sridhar Reddy, counsel
appearing on behalf of the petitioner and Mr C S Vaidyanathan, senior counsel
appearing on behalf of the respondent – contemnors.
2 By an order of this Court dated 27 January 2020, in SLP(C) No 1989 of 2020, the
judgment of the High Court of Andhra Pradesh dated 27 September 2019 in Writ
Petition No 40252 of 2015 has been stayed. Thereafter, there was an order of
this Court dated 8 February 2021 in Contempt Petition (C) No 152 of 2021.

Court. It needs no clarification that the order of this Court would have
precedence notwithstanding anything contained in any order of the High Court.
4 In the face of the above orders, it is impermissible for the respondent –
contemnors to either exclude the license holders from participating in the
auction or from being granted leases, including in the shopping complex
constructed by the State, on the ground of their religion.
5 In the circumstances, in order to enable the respondent-contemnors to obviate
any coercive steps being taken against them for breach of the order of this
Court, we direct that none of the tenants/shop holders shall be excluded from
participating in the auction or from the grant of leases including in the shopping
complex on the ground of their religion.
6 The Contempt Petitions are accordingly disposed of.
7 Pending application, if any, stands disposed of.

  • 2. 2 Court. It needs no clarification that the order of this Court would have precedence notwithstanding anything contained in any order of the High Court. 4 In the face of the above orders, it is impermissible for the respondent – contemnors to either exclude the license holders from participating in the auction or from being granted leases, including in the shopping complex constructed by the State, on the ground of their religion. 5 In the circumstances, in order to enable the respondent-contemnors to obviate any coercive steps being taken against them for breach of the order of this Court, we direct that none of the tenants/shop holders shall be excluded from participating in the auction or from the grant of leases including in the shopping complex on the ground of their religion. 6 The Contempt Petitions are accordingly disposed of. 7 Pending application, if any, stands disposed of. …………...…...….......………………........J.
