Quick Summary: On December 15, 2025, the Madras High Court decided in favor of R. Prakasam, allowing him to get the necessary certificates to join an online bidding process for the National Highways Department in Salem. This decision came after Prakasam asked the court for these documents.

Prakasam's Request for Certificates

R. Prakasam asked the Madras High Court on December 4, 2025, to help him get a Site Inspection Certificate and a certificate showing that the equipment and plans were in working condition. These documents were important for him to take part in an online bidding process announced by the National Highways Department on December 2, 2025.

The Court Meeting in Madras

The case was looked at by Judge N. Sathish Kumar on December 15, 2025. Both sides shared their points of view, and the court decided to handle the matter quickly. Prakasam's request was to get the Divisional Engineer in Salem to give him the needed certificates.

"Listened to both sides and looked at the information provided."

Agreement from the Other Side

During the meeting, Mr. V. Jeevagiridharan, the lawyer for the other side, agreed that the certificates would be given to Prakasam on the same day. This agreement was important to solve the issue quickly.

Court's Final Decision

The court noted the agreement from the other side's lawyer and closed the case without any charges. The court ordered that the certificates be given as promised.

"Noting the agreement... this case is closed. No charges."

What This Means for Prakasam

With the court's decision, Prakasam can now take part in the online bidding process. This ruling is a big step for him in trying to get opportunities with the National Highways Department in Salem.
