2 For Petitioner : Mr. Vineet Kumar Pandey, Advocate For Respondent No.1 : Mr. Amit Buxy, Dy. Govt. Advocate For Respondents No.2 to 4 : Ms. Natasha Khan, Advocate on behalf of Ms. Saumya Sharma, Advocate (Single Bench) Hon'ble Shri Justice Sanjay K. Agrawal
Order on Board 05.08.2026
1. This petition is directed against the impugned order dated 31.07.2020 issued by the respondent No.4, by which the canteen allotted to the petitioner as per agreement of right to run canteen has been revoked.
2. Mr. Vineet Kumar Pandey, learned counsel for the petitioner, submits that the impugned order is unsustainable and bad in law, therefore, it deserves to be set aside.
3. Mr. Amit Buxy, learned State counsel, would support the impugned
order.
4. Ms. Natasha Khan, learned counsel appearing for the respondents No.2 to 4, would submit that as per clause 4 of the agreement, the rent of more than three months was not paid and number of irregularities have been found, therefore, it has been revoked as per the proposal No.1 dated 30.07.2020.
3
5. Heard learned counsel for the parties, considered their rival
submissions, and perused the record minutely.
6. A careful perusal of the impugned order dated 31.07.2020 would show that the petitioner failed to pay the rent for more than three months and despite an opportunity of hearing being granted to the petitioner, he failed to comply with the terms and conditions of the agreement; therefore, his agreement to run the canteen is revoked as per clause 4 of the agreement. In that view of the matter, the revocation of right to run canteen as per proposal No.1 dated 30.07.2020 is in accordance with law. As such, I do not find any merit in this petition, it deserves to be and accordingly is dismissed. The petitioner is directed to handover the canteen to the respondents No.2 to 4, if not already handed order. However, the security amount, if any, after deducting the rent shall be refunded to the petitioner.
7. In view of the above, the writ petition stands disposed of.
