2020 (9) TMI 16 - HC - Companies LawDisqualification of petitioners to act as Director - Territorial Jurisdiction - Section 164(2)(a) of the Companies Act, 2013 - HELD THAT:- In the present case the counsel for the petitioners has been unable to show as to what part of the cause of action arose within the territorial jurisdiction of this Court. There is also no averment in the present writ petition as to how any part of the cause of action had arisen within the territorial jurisdiction of this Court. The present writ petition seems to have been filed only to gain benefit of the interim order (Annexure P-7) passed by this Court in GURDEEP SINGH AND OTHERS VERSUS THE UNION OF INDIA AND ANOTHER [2017 (11) TMI 1910 - PUNJAB AND HARYANA HIGH COURT] and other similar cases though the initiation of the writ proceedings before this High Court was clearly unsustainable and an abuse of jurisdiction. The filing of the present writ petition before this High Court was not bonafide. The writ petition deserves to be dismissed with exemplary costs. Dismissed with costs of ₹ 1,00,000/- to be deposited by the petitioners with the PM-CARES Fund.
