Authorities Under Rent Act To Only Ascertain If Premises Are Bonafidely Required By Landlord, Can't Embark On Roving Enquiry: Punjab & Haryana HC Case Title: Munshi Ram versus Vidya Devi and Another Citation : 2022 LiveLaw (PH) 121 The Punjab and Haryana High Court while dealing with a revision petition under Article 227 of the Constitution of India against the order of the Rent Controller whereby the application for directing the respondents-landlord to produce relevant documents in their possession was dismissed, has held that the present petition is nothing but an endeavour to embark on an endeavour not relevant to the matter in dispute. A Court would not embark on a roving and fishing enquiry in order to assist a party to collect evidence. 2. Persons Ineligible To Participate In Tender Process Can't Overcome Disqualification By Entering Into Joint Venture: Punjab & Haryana High Court Case Title: Sharma Constructions Joint Venture Versus Punjab Agro Industries Corporation Ltd. and another Citation: 2022 LiveLaw (PH) 122 Punjab and Haryana High Court has upheld an order vide which Sharma Constructions Joint Venture was declared technically non-compliant for e-tender floated by Punjab Agro Industries for the supply of gypsum for agriculture use, on the ground of being ineligible. The Court noted that the expert committee of the authorities had examined the issue detail and found the petitioner to be ineligible. The bench observed that a perusal of the Joint Venture Agreement would indicate that there is no clause indicating as to who would be managing the Joint Venture. On the contrary, the document indicates that in spite of constituting the so called Joint Venture, the constituents/ proprietors would continue to manage their own separate firms. 3.
