application to the second respondent through email on 26.01.2026 as well as through registered post on 27.01.2026, and requesting him to issue the aforesaid certificates, so as to enable the petitioner to participate in the tender called for by the 1st respondent dated 19.01.2026, and the last date for receipt of tender documents was on 07.02.2026 at 11.00 hrs., the same was not considered and no certificates have been issued to date. Hence, the petitioner is before this Court seeking a mandamus to the second respondent to issue the said certificates.
3. Mr.V.Jeevagiridharan, learned Additional Government Pleader who
enters appearance for respondents 1 and 2, on instructions would submit that the certificates sought for by the petitioner would be issued to them on 06.02.2026, if the application is otherwise in order. Page2 of 4
