W.P(MD)No.15338 of 2025

It is the case of the petitioner that though he made an application in response to the E-Tender notification issued by the second respondent dated 26.05.2025, the respondents have not responded to his application filed on 02.06.2025.

The learned Additional Government Pleader appearing for the

second respondent, on the other hand, produced a copy of the communication, which was uploaded in the web portal, wherein the petitioner's application has been rejected/returned for the following reasons:

“All the pages of solvency certificate to be uploaded. As the solvency certificate does not have the survey number, details, the Village Administrative Officer's certificate has to be submitted for the confirmation of the property mentioned in Solvency Certificate with survey number, revenue village, type of property and ownership of the property. Also EC for last 30 years has to be submitted for the survey numbers mentioned in the VAO Certificate.”

In view of the above, there is no merit in the writ petition. Hence, this writ petition is dismissed. No costs.
