RAKIB HOSSAIN Vs. UNION OF INDIA

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THE Court : After going through the order dated November 23, 2010 made in W.P.No.22212(W) of 2010 (Asraful Haque v. THE Union of India & Ors.), Mr Banerjee, counsel for the respondents, has invited me to make an order setting aside the tender process questioned in this petition and permitting the railway administration to decide whether the petitioner is entitled to work as a halt contractor for an indefinite period.

(2.) THE case of the petitioner is that since the agreement under which he was appointed entitled him to work as a halt contractor for an indefinite period, without first terminating his appointment according to law, the respondents cannot initiate any process for appointing another halt contractor for the same place.
