Junior cottage and small scale industries minister Narayan Biswas must appear in the court within four weeks of receiving the notice.
Justice J. Biswas said the minister was deliberately av-oiding the court after flouting an order to reinstate a West Bengal Handicraft Development Corporation employee, sacked for refusing to sign the fuel bill of a car used by his wife.
On December 18, the court had asked the minister, also the chairman of the corporation, to pay the man his dues within a fortnight.
