COCP No.234 of 2009 (O&M) 1 IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.O.C.P.No.234 of 2009 (O&M) Date of Decision:-16.9.2009 Narender Kapoor ...Petitioner Versus Chandigarh Administration and others ...Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR GARG Present: Mr.Arun Bansal, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr.Vinod S.Bhardwaj, Advocate for respondent Nos.1 & 2 Rakesh Kumar Garg, J. (Oral): CM No.20843-CII of 2009 Dismissed as not pressed. COCP No.234 of 2009 The grievance of the petitioner before this Court is that despite direction dated 26.9.2008 passed in CWP No.12495 of 2007 whereby he was held eligible for award of contract after inter-se biding, the respondents have declared him ineligible to participate in the bid vide order dated 21.1.2009. In response to the show cause notice issued by this Court, no reply has been filed. However, in the affidavit attached with CM No.20843-CII of 2009, it has been stated by the respondents that the Administration has reviewed the progress in the tender process and has taken conscious decision to scrap the ongoing tender process and to call for fresh tenders for licencing out the chemist shop in the larger interest of patient care and to avoid any further COCP No.234 of 2009 (O&M) 2 litigation. In view of the aforesaid fact alone, I am not inclined to proceed further with this petition. Rule discharged. However, the petitioner shall be at liberty to challenge the order dated 21.1.2009 (Annexure P10) in accordance with law. It is needless to say that in case fresh tenders are invited, the petitioner will have a right to participate in the same in accordance with law. (Rakesh Kumar Garg) 16.9.2009 Judge AS
