HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION (PIL) No. - 2190 of 2026 Chief Justice's Court HON'BLE ARUN BHANSALI, CHIEF JUSTICE HON'BLE KSHITIJ SHAILENDRA, J. 1. This petition, purportedly in public interest, has been filed by the petitioner seeking a direction to respondent no. 2 to decide the representation dated 18.08.2026 moved by him. 2. In the petition, initially a complaint was made on 03.08.2026 (Annexure-1) regarding issuance of two work orders pertaining to the same work with different amounts essentially seeking to defalcate the amount. It was indicated that qua work of repair and interlocking from the house of Zainul Abedin to house of Master Hameedullah two work orders for Rs.5.83 Lakh and Rs.9.92 Lakh were issued on the same day i.e. 19.03.2026. Whereafter, another representation dated 11.08.2026 has been made making several general complaints regarding the working of the Nagar Palika Parishad and on 18.08.2026 a reminder in this regard was sent. 3. When the matter came up before this Court, noticing the allegations pertaining to issuance of two work orders for the same work with different amounts, the respondents were directed to obtain instructions in the matter. 4. Detailed instructions have been produced on behalf of the respondent/Nagar Palika Parishad inter-alia pointing out that due to mistake instead of indicating a different work, the same work was indicated as the contract was given to the same contractor who was L-1 in Versus Counsel for Petitioner(s) : Afreen Shahab, Shahabuddin, Ram Kumar Pandey Counsel for Respondent(s) : C.S.C., Sujan Singh Mohammad Najir .....Petitioner(s) State of U.P. and 4 others .....Respondent(s) both the contracts and a rectification was done on 24.03.2026 whereby the order dated 19.03.2026 was cancelled and a new work order was issued. Documents, in support of the said contention, have been placed on record. 5. In view of the above fact situation, apparently there is no substance in the allegations made in the petition qua the issuance of two work orders for the same work. 6. So far as the representation dated 11.08.2026 is concerned, the same pertains to allegations, for which apparently no material is available on record for directing any enquiry by this Court. 7. Allegations totally general in nature regarding working of the Nagar Palika Parishad have been made, which apparently cannot be investigated. 8. In view of the above fact situation, no case for any further action in the present Public Interest Litigation is made out. The same is, accordingly, disposed of.
