Petitioner states that it is a duly empanelled outsourcing agency, having been empanelled by the Respondents themselves after due scrutiny of its eligibility, experience, financial capacity and statutory compliances. Petitioner's empanelment was effected through proceedings dated 22.02.2025 issued by the competent authority and the said empanelment has neither been cancelled nor suspended and continues to remain valid as on date.
