M/S Garib Nawaz Corporation vs State Of Maharashtra & Ors

The Bombay High Court quashed the extension of a toll collection contract awarded to M/s Garib Nawaz Corporation, finding the extension and waiver of a critical contract condition arbitrary and an abuse of power by the Minister for Dairy Development. The Court held that such actions violated principles of public accountability and directed the State to invite fresh tenders for toll collection. Additionally, the Court mandated the formation of a Committee to assess the financial loss to the State due to the waiver and extension of the contract.
