Sk Ajarat Ali v. State Of West Bengal And ORS.

ss/jks 25.04.2022 WPA(P) 118 of 2022 Sk. Ajarat Ali Vs.

The State of West Bengal & Ors.

Mr. Mritunjoy Chatterjee Mr. Md. G. N. Imrohi Mr. S. Bhattacharyya Mr. D. Majumder ... ... for the petitioner Mr. Lalit Mohan Mahata Mr. Supratim Dhar ... ... for the State The grievance raised in the petition is in respect of certain irregularities in the award of contract for the purpose of construction of office building at New Farakka BDO Office Campus under Beniagram Gram Panchayet under Farakka Development Block.

Having perused the record, we find that no material particular of any alleged irregularities have been disclosed in the petition nor any supporting documents have been enclosed except by enclosing one representation by the petitioner.

During the course of hearing, learned counsel for the petitioner has fairly stated that the petitioner was earlier the highest bidder but the said fact has not been disclosed in the petition. If the petitioner was the highest bidder or one of the participants in this or earlier tender, then it is matter of personal cause therefore PIL cannot be maintained and even otherwise the said fact ought not to have been suppressed by the petitioner.

Having regard to the above circumstances, we do not find any reason to entertain the present petition

which is accordingly dismissed. We, however, make it clear that this order of dismissal will not prevent the petitioner to avail the other remedy, if available in law. (Prakash Shrivastava, C.J.) (Rajarshi Bharadwaj, J.)
