IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) PRESENT: THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY TUESDAY, THE SIXTEENTH DAY OF JUNE, TWO THOUSAND NINE ONLY WRIT PETITION No.26871 of 2006 Between: Pulluri Praveen Kumar. … Petitioner. And The Joint Collector (Civil Supplies) & Chairman, District Purchase Committee (BCW), Warangal, Warangal District and another. … Respondents Counsel for the petitioner: Sri A.Prabhakar Rao. Counsel for the respondents: AGP for Civil Supplies. This Court made the following: ORDER:- Tender notification dated 19-12-2006, by which respondent No.1 called for fresh tenders for transporting rice to certain social welfare hostels, is assailed in this Writ Petition. The main ground on which the petitioner questioned the said tender notification is that his transport contract, which was awarded to him by proceedings dated 2-12-2005, was valid for 10 months; and that he approached the respondents with a request to extend the term of the contract, but there is no response from them. This Court by order dated 26-12-2006 granted interim stay of all further proceedings in pursuance of the impugned tender notice. In the counter-affidavit filed by respondent No.1 it is , inter alia, stated that representation dated 18-10- 2006 filed by the petitioner was favourably considered and contract was extended by three more months. Since the petitioner’s grievance was redressed by the respondents and more than two years expired even after expiry of the extended term of contract of the petitioner, I find no reason to grant any further relief to the petitioner in this case. At any rate, the impugned tender notice itself has become abortive in view of extension of contract in favour of the petitioner by the respondents. Therefore, the Writ Petition is dismissed as infructuous. --------------------------------------- C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY,J Date:16-6-2009 MNR
