Hon'ble The Chief Justice Hon'ble Shri Justice Sanjay Agrawal Order on Board Per Deepak Gupta, Chief Justice 20/10/2016 1.

By means of this Writ Petition, the Petitioner has challenged the Notice Inviting Tender dated 14.10.2016, mainly on the ground that the Petitioner was awarded contract for handling and transportation of all the goods of the FCI at Basna and Saraipali by the Chhattisgarh Ware Housing Corporation. 2.

Shri Pillai, learned Counsel appearing for the FCI, on instructions, submits that the tenders for Basna and Saraipali floated by FCI have been cancelled because the rates received were on the higher side. Without going into the question as to whether the FCI could have invited the tenders of these two stations, we are of the view that nothing survives in this Petition. 3.

In view of above,the Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed.

4.

However, liberty is granted to the Petitioner to again approach this Court in case fresh cause of action arises.
