Court: Delhi

Reported in: 2005(1)CTLJ370(Del); 118(2005)DLT571

Rekha Sharma, J.1. This writ petition under Article 226/227 of the Constitution of India has been filed by M/s UEE Electricals Engg. P. Ltd. The facts fall into a narrow compass. The petitioner has been black-listed by the respondent-Delhi Jal Board. Why? Because, to put it briefly, in response to a bid, it categorically stated that it had not been black-listed by any other department. The Board says that it was a palpable lie and it was resorted to knowingly and deliberately. As we shall presently show, the petitioner did take recourse to deliberate false-hood, inviting in its wake, a show-cause notice, consequent hearing and then the decision to black-list. Here are some details leading to the order of black-listing/debarment. The office of the Executive Engineer (E & M) WC-II TYR under the Delhi Jal Board, Govt, of NCT of Delhi invited applications for the issue of tenders for composite work of construction of 24.3 M.L. capacity underground reservoir and Booster Pumping Station at V...
