Ramachandra Narayan Nayak vs Karnataka Neeravari Nigam Ltd. & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals against the High Court's judgment in RFA nos. 593-600/2000, which set aside the Civil Judge's decrees in O.S. no. 35/97 to 42/97. The Court held that the plaintiff, a contractor, was entitled to terminate the contract due to the defendants' failure to supply essential materials as per the agreement, violating the terms stipulated in the contract. The Court emphasized the binding nature of the Chief Engineer's decisions as per clause 30 of the tender agreement, ultimately restoring the lower court's decrees in favor of the plaintiff.
