Blacklisting of contractors must adhere to principles of natural justice, including providing adequate notice and opportunity to respond to allegations.
A party cannot be blacklisted without a clear and adequate show cause notice, violating principles of natural justice, leading to severe consequences.
Natural justice requires that prior notice be given before penalties such as blacklisting; however, if adequate opportunity and communication are established, decisions can stand.
The Petitioner's suppression of a material fact and approach to the Court with unclean hands led to the dismissal of the Petition.
