IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P. No.15842 of 2010 Date of decision: 7.9.2010 Bhan Singh. -----Petitioner. Vs. Punjab State Co-operative Supply and Marketing Federation Ltd. and others. -----Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ADARSH KUMAR GOEL HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAY KUMAR MITTAL Present:- Mr. S.S. Salar, Advocate for the petitioner. --- ADARSH KUMAR GOEL, J. 1. This petition seeks quashing of order dated 21.7.2010, Annexure P-11, whereby contract of labour and cartage awarded to the petitioner has been cancelled, inter-alia, on the ground that the petitioner failed to provide adequate labour or trucks for lifting the procured wheat stocks. 2. Earlier, the petitioner had filed CWP No.7504 of 2010 which was disposed of on 28.4.2010 with a direction to give hearing to the petitioner and pass a speaking order. 3. We have heard learned counsel for the petitioner. 4. Contention raised in the petition is that termination of contract was malafide for political considerations and the CWP No.15842 of 2010 petitioner was not given opportunity to lift the wheat within reasonable time. In any case, forfeiture of security and blacklisting was not justified. 5. We asked learned counsel for the petitioner whether there is any arbitration clause in the contract, to which counsel for the petitioner pleads ignorance. The questions raised in the petition will require adjudication after considering the evidence of both sides, for which, forum under Article 226 of the Constitution is not the appropriate forum. 6. Accordingly, the petition is disposed of without prejudice to alternative remedies of the petitioner in accordance with law.
