Consult a local lawyer with the judgment copy for further guidance as the judgment has to be understood.

Yes, non-implementation / disobedience of order passed in PIL attracts contempt of court.
Did you file the PIL through an advocate of as party-in-person ? If your counsel has filed what is his / her opinion and advise ?

Yes, you can move a contempt petition if the local body has been grossly negligent in implementing the directions.

You can file pil for its execution. But whether contempt petition is meant out, need to go through the judgement as well as need to follow the update status of the local body.
