Sir I have filed a PIL in Madras HC in 2017 regarding sub standard works are carried out in panchayat by contractors. Contractors submitted bogus bills for 25 lakhs n received panchayat money. Commercial tax department certified that those are bogus bills. Collector in counter affidavit nowhere defend or object about the bogus bills charges. Case not listed for 3 yrs. More such type of allegations are on record all these yrs. Same contractors are awarded further works. Can can I file stay petition additionally praying stay the contractors until PIL is finalised?

Quick Summary

A Public Interest Litigation (PIL) was filed in the Madras High Court in 2017 concerning substandard work and fraudulent billing by contractors in a panchayat. Despite evidence of bogus bills and the case being stalled for three years, the same contractors are being awarded new projects. The question is whether an additional petition can be filed to request a stay on these contractors until the PIL is resolved. The advice given is yes, an additional stay petition can be filed now, and a complaint to the state government is also recommended.
