IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P. No. 11806 of 2008 DATE OF DECISION : 22.07.2008 Jagtar Singh .... PETITIONER Versus Food Corporation of India and others ..... RESPONDENTS CORAM :- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SATISH KUMAR MITTAL HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AUGUSTINE GEORGE MASIH Present: Mr. Dheeraj Bali, Advocate, for the petitioner. * * * SATISH KUMAR MITTAL , J. ( Oral ) In this petition, the petitioner has challenged the memorandum of understanding dated 23.8.2005 arrived at between the Management of Food Corporation of India and its workers Palledar Union in respect of working in Depots of Food Corporation of India in Punjab and Haryana, being violative of Articles 14 and 21 of the Constitution of India. The case of the petitioner is that he has been allotted the work of handling and transporting the wheat and other material of Food Corporation of India to the Punjab State Warehousing Corporation Godowns at Killa Raipur, though the said contract has not been placed on record. It is the case of the petitioner that since the terms of the contract are CWP No. 11806 of 2008 -2- being violated by the respondents, as the Palledars are not permitting the petitioner to perform his part of the contract, the petitioner has already submitted a detailed representation dated 2.6.2008 (Annexure P-3) with the authorities in this regard. After hearing counsel for the petitioner, when we are not inclined to entertain this writ petition, in view of the disputed questions of facts, counsel for the petitioner states that the petitioner may be permitted to withdraw this petition with liberty to pursue his representation dated 2.6.2008 (Annexure P-3) or any other alternative remedy under the law. Dismissed as withdrawn with the aforesaid liberty. ( SATISH KUMAR MITTAL ) JUDGE July 22, 2008 ( AUGUSTINE GEORGE MASIH ) ndj JUDGE
