Court No. - 21
Case :- WRIT - C No. - 21806 of 2018
Petitioner :- M/S Padam Constructions Respondent :- State Of U.P. And 3 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Anshul Kumar Singhal Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C.,Ashok Kumar Pandey
Hon'ble Govind Mathur,J. Hon'ble Chandra Dhari Singh,J.
Heard Sri Anshul Kumar Singhal, learned counsel for the petitioner, Sri Ashok Kumar Pandey, learned counsel for the respondent no. 3 and 4 and learned Standing Counsel.
This petition for writ is before us to examine the correctness of the order dated 23rd of May, 2018 passed by the Scheme Incharge, Meerut Development Authority.
Under the order impugned, the Scheme Incharge has directed the petitioner, a construction company, to satisfy the deficiencies in construction of the Nala.
The submission of learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner is that the objection is raised after handing over the Nala to the respondents and that too after having a complete completion report by the Junior Engineer concerned under whose supervision the work was done, as such, the same is bad.
On going through the agreement arrived between the parties, it appears that a dispute redressal system is prescribed therein. The petitioner has approached this Court without availing the dispute redressal system prescribed in Para 24 of the agreement and, as such, we are not inclined to interfere in the matter.
The writ petition is dismissed. The petitioner is at liberty to avail the remedy under the agreement itself.
