THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE S.ANANDA REDDY Writ Petition No.16183 of 2005 04-08-2005 Between: D.Venkat Reddy, s/o Venkateshwar Reddy, aged 50 years, Occ: Partner, Active Security Force, 12-8-301/6/D, Allagada Bavi, Metuguda, Secunderabad-17 ... PETITONER AND 1.The Assistant Labour Commissioner (Central) Office of the Regional Labour Commissioner (Central), A.T.I., Campus, Vidyanagar, Hyderabad –500007 and another .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE S.ANANDA REDDY Writ Petition No.16183 of 2005 ORDER: This writ petition is filed by the petitioner who is claiming to be one of the tenderers in response to the notification issued by the second respondent for supplying watch and ward staff. It is stated that as there was some ambiguity with reference to the minimum wages specified by the second respondent, a writ petition was filed and the same is pending before this Court. In addition to the same, the petitioner also approached the first respondent seeking clarification to be given to the second respondent as to the minimum wages payable depending upon the nature of the work. As, according to the petitioner, the first respondent has not given any clarification, hence the petitioner has come up with the present writ petition. The stand of the second respondent is that the writ itself is not maintainable as no clarifications are required since every notification issued by the Central Government is clear with reference to the minimum wages payable for each category of the workmen. Heard both sides and considered the material on record. I do not find that there is any cause of action for the petitioner to approach this Court. If the second respondent has issued the notification calling for tenders for supply of watch and ward staff, the said notification itself would specify the rates at which the wages are payable and whether the circular dated 15.12.2004 or the circular dated 09.06.2005 is applicable. Therefore, the writ petition is devoid of merit. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. No costs. _______________ 04.08.2005 VGB
