Territorial writ jurisdiction depends on where the dominant, essential and integral facts of the lis arose, not merely on the location of the respondent authority or the place from which the impugned order was issued. Applying the doctrine of forum conveniens and the principle in Kusum Ingots, the HC found that the petitioner's applications and underlying dispute were routed through the Haryana unit, so the foundational cause of action lay outside Delhi.
