The instant petition was filed to seeking to raise a grievance with regard to issuance of a \u2018Letter of Intent\u2019 and Addendum to LOI whereunder it was proposed to offer the respondent 6 a retail outlet dealership of Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited pursuant to an advertisement issued for the purpose.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Question as to whether a competitor in business could seek to prevent a rival party from exercising its right to carry on business came up for consideration in <em>Nagar Rice and Flour Mills v.
