SURINDER SINGH Vs. UNION OF INDIA AND ORS.

JUDGEMENT

(1.) CM 12757/2015.

(2.) THIS is an application seeking stay of any further proceedings in respect of the Notice Inviting Tender dated 14.05.2015 issued by the Government of India, Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure for hiring of services for cleaning of toilets, corridors, staircases and other common areas in the premises occupied by the Ministry of Finance, North Block. The next date which was fixed in the writ petition is 12.02.2016.

(3.) WE may point out that we have not issued any notice on the same and it is only because the respondents volunteered to file a counter -affidavit that we have permitted them to do so. Be that as it may, since the petitioner has raised a point of urgency, we have taken up the writ petition for hearing.
