mnm IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY ORDINARY ORIGINAL JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO. 2338 OF 2011 Rakesh Bhailalbhai Gandhi ...Petitioner Vs. Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation & Ors. ...Respondents Mr. Mahendra J. Parikh with Mr. A.S. Ramesan for the Petitioner Mr. G.S. Hegde i/b. Hegde Associate for Respondent No.1 CORAM : MOHIT S. SHAH, C.J. AND MRS. ROSHAN DALVI, J. Date : 19 DECEMBER 2011. P.C. Since the petitioner was blacklisted by respondent No.1 Corporation on 31 July 2007 for a period of 5 years the petitioner has rightly not been allowed to participate in the tender process initiated recently. The petitioner has, therefore, no case in respect of the tender issued by the respondent Corporation. 2. As far as the grievance against respondent No.2 is concerned, the respondent No.2 has never been blacklisted by respondent Corporation. Respondent No.2 was blacklisted by the BEST by letter dated 20 July 2008. Thereafter respondent No.1 had accepted the tender of respondent No.2 and awarded the contract for the period from 16 November 2008 which was valid till 15 November 2011. 3. In view of the above we see no merits in the petition. Hence the petition is dismissed. CHIEF JUSTICE ROSHAN DALVI, J.
