Learned counsel submits that on the date of hearing i.e., 23.01.2025, this Court had directed the applicant/petitioner to file an additional affidavit bringing on record all the documents which were filed by the applicant/petitioner at the time of submission of the bid. 4. Learned counsel submits that to file an additional affidavit as per order dated 23.01.2025, the applicant/petitioner cross checked all the documents filed on record and realized that it had inadvertently missed uploading some documents as the volume of the tender participation documents were huge. Learned counsel for applicant/petitioner submits that as this was not discovered till 23.01.2025, the learned counsel under bonafide impression on 23.01.2025, before this Court, submitted that the missing documents were forming part of the participation documents. 5. Learned counsel submits an unconditional apology stating that the submissions made by the counsel before this Court on 23.01.2025 were without the awareness of the aforesaid error. 6. Learned counsel for the applicant/appellant prays to withdraw the present petition and to file a fresh writ petition limiting itself to the grounds of challenging the disqualification on the basis of experience criteria. 7. This is a serious issue which the parties cannot be permitted to take lightly. This Court, upon hearing the learned senior counsel and assertions made before this Court on 23.01.2025, passed an interim protection to the applicant/petitioner. Apparently, the assertions were not true and correct. This is a digitally signed order.
