FOOD CORPORATION OF INDIA vs HARMESH CHAND

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in exercising its writ jurisdiction to quash the cancellation of a contract and direct the continuation of work, as the matter involved seriously disputed questions of fact. The Court emphasized that such disputes should be adjudicated by a civil court rather than through writ proceedings. The appeal was allowed, and the interim order was dissolved, with directions for future disputes to be resolved based on evidence without influence from the High Court's observations.
