Allahabad High Court

JAGESHVARversusUP STATE BRIDGE CORPORATION LTD AND 4 OTHERS

Decided: 19 April 2026
Bench: SAURABH SHYAM SHAMSHERY

Holding

The writ petition is disposed, with the court directing the respondent to consider any fresh representation by the petitioner and provide reasons or cure any defect expeditiously.

Summary

The petitioner, Jageshvar, filed a writ petition challenging the alleged lesser payment of his retiral dues by Up State Bridge Corporation Ltd and others. The petitioner sought relief from the High Court of Allahabad. The court, after hearing counsel for both sides, did not grant immediate relief but disposed of the writ petition. It directed that if the petitioner files a fresh representation raising his grievance, the respondents must provide reasons for their decision or cure any defect, if present, expeditiously. The order effectively puts the matter back with the respondent for reconsideration upon a fresh application, without ordering any immediate payment or other relief.
