The Supreme court bench which heard Subrata Roy’s case observed: “ For the last one and a half years we tried to accommodate you. You said go to hell. What can we do? Should we allow every litigant to behave like this towards the case? Documents and affidavits produced by the contemnors themselves would apparently falsify their refund (Substitute the word compliance to the word refund for your convenience) theory.
Non-compliance of the order passed by this court shakes the very foundation of our judicial system and undermines the rule of the law, which we are bound to honor and protect. This is essential to maintain faith and confidence of the people of this country in judiciary”.
Non-compliance of the order passed by this court shakes the very foundation of our judicial system and undermines the rule of the law, which we are bound to honor and protect. This is essential to maintain faith and confidence of the people of this country in judiciary”.
Shri Asthana has filed two applications to the Chief Justice of Rajasthan HC praying for compliance of Jaipur HC judgment dated 12-01-2910 by Hon'ble Justice Bhandari which allowed both the writ petitions of Asthana and also said that every retired employee may get the same benefit.
Let us wait and see what Hon'ble Justice Chauhan has to finally say when he sits in the bench and will he uphold the sanctity of our judicial system and ensure the people’s faith and confidence in the judiciary without watering down any of its sacred principles.

The SC ordered refund of deposits amounting to Rs.2000 crores to its depositors. But Subrata and two company directors of Sahara neither complied with its order nor appeared in court.Hence taking a serious view of non implementation of its order and not satisfied with the proposal to refund deposits, they were sent to judicial custody till March 11. In its order, the bench said "sufficient opportunities were given to the contemnors to fully comply with those orders and purge the contempt committed by them, rather than availing (themselves) of the same they have adopted various dilatory tactics". The bench said non-compliance with its orders would shake the "very foundation of our judicial system and undermine the rule of law, which we are bound to honour and protect". The court made it clear that the documents and materials produced by Sahara would apparently falsify their refund theory and cast serious doubts about existence of the so called investors. This is exactly the same case as ours. Hence Justice Chuhan has given an erroneous order which should be recalled in the HC by an appeal. It is learnt Asthana has already taken up the matter. LIC also should take note of it and comply with Raj HC order dt 12 01 2010
