V/S
STATE OF JHARKHAND Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) LEAVE granted.

(2.) HAVING heard learned counsel on both sides and having examined in detail each of the documents relevant to the case, Mr. Jha, learned counsel appearing for respondent No. 1-M/s. Ranisati Pipe Industries (original writ petitioner in the high Court) states, on instructions, that he would like to withdraw the original Writ petition No. 1046/2006 filed in the High Court of Jharkhand at Ranchi.

(3.) AT this stage, we are required to state that since we are directing restoration of status quo ante, it needs to be mentioned that a concluded contract awarded in favour of the appellant stood terminated after they had supplied approximately three lakh metres of PVC Pipes out of the total quantity of nine lakh metres. The Court's intervention took place at the stage of execution of the contract. Since we are restoring status quo ante, we are directing the appellant herein to supply the the balance quantity under the contract within thirty days from today. Secondly, we are also directing the State to accept the balance quantity accordingly. This Order is being passed because the Appellant had supplied 300000 (approx.) out of 900000 Metres of PVC Pipes.
