Finality of earlier review dismissal bars reopening the same challenge for identically situated parties.

Earlier review petitions arising from the same judgment had already been dismissed on delay and on merits, and the Court declined to reopen the issue for identically situated petitioners. It held that, after such prior disposal, reconsideration of the same challenge would be improper. The present review petitions were therefore not entertained and were dismissed.

Issues: Whether the review petitions challenging the judgment dated 02.03.2021 could be entertained in view of the earlier dismissal of review petitions in the same batch.

Analysis: The order notes that an earlier set of review petitions arising from the same judgment had already been considered by another Bench and dismissed on delay as well as on merits by order dated 23.04.2024. In view of that disposal, the Court held that it would not be proper to reopen the issue and reconsider the present review petitions on merits, particularly when the present petitioners were identically situated.

Conclusion: The review petitions were not entertained and were dismissed.
