This query is : Resolved
notice for tender was invited on 08 june 2012 from manufacturer / authorized dealer for electrical goods. The due date for opening the tender was 16 june 2012. On due date few tenderer, other than manufacturer / authorized dealer, made objection that they should also be given equal opportunity to participate in the game,though in tender document it was clearly mentioned that only manufacturer / authorized dealer can take part.
Now instead of opening the tender on due date a correction notice was published in newspapers on 18 June 2012 to accommodate those persons and new date for opening the Tender is fixed on 22 June 2012.
Now my query is that whether the above action taken by the purchasing authority is in accordance with law.
