HC tells petitioner to implead successful bidder over Radial Road-II tender

The Telangana High Court has instructed a construction firm to bring in the successful bidder for the Radial Road-II tender into the legal proceedings. Justice B. Vijaysen Reddy, presiding over a batch of three writ petitions, emphasized that adjudication cannot proceed without hearing the successful bidder, as the technical and financial bids had already been submitted.

Sushee Infra and Mining Limited, one of the petitioning companies, had sought a direction to halt the tender process, arguing that its disqualification was illegal and arbitrary. The firm contended that its experience certificate, submitted with the application, did not meet the tender conditions and was not signed by the superintendent engineer.

The court directed the parties to file counter affidavits after the Dasara vacation, instructing both sides to consider the successful bidder's perspective in the matter.
