Senior Divisional Commercial Manager ... vs S.C.R Caterers,Dry Fruits,F.J.S.W ...

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision affirming the entitlement of the South Central Railway Caterers to renew their licenses under the Catering Policy, 2010, as per the provisions outlined in the policy. The Court emphasized that the policy mandates renewal for existing licensees based on satisfactory performance and payment of dues, rejecting the argument that inviting fresh bids was justified. The Court held that the action of the railway authorities was discriminatory and contrary to the Catering Policy, thereby ensuring the rights of the existing license holders were protected.
