1. All these writ petitions are connected together by a common thread of the same texture. The subject matter relates to the tender floated by the Respondent - Bilaspur Smart City Limited. The challenge raised is against cancellation of the Second tender (after cancelling the First tender) and in respect of the subsequent / Third tender proceedings, besides the instance of blacklisting the parties concerned and other incidental aspects.

2. The main points that arise for consideration are:
(a) Whether the repeated cancellation of the tender floated by the Respondent - Bilaspur Smart City Limited is with intent to extend undue favours to anybody of choice of the Respondents?
(b) Whether the blacklisting of the Tenderer ordered by the Respondent - Bilaspur Smart City Limited without issuing any show - cause notice is correct or sustainable in law?
(c) Whether the disqualification of the Petitioner - Company in WPC No. 2390/2020 and WPC No. 2396/2020 (M/s. Raipur Construction Pvt. Ltd.) in the Second round of tender is correct or justified?
(d) Whether the disqualification of the Petitioner in WPC No. 2860/2020 and WPC No. 2872/2020 (M/s. Prakash Asphaltings and Toll Highways (India) Ltd.)
