Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court dismissed the review petitions under Article 137 of the Constitution of India, emphasizing that a judgment from the final Court is conclusive and review is only permissible in cases of grave errors or established grounds. The Court noted that unfounded petitions following a defeat should be avoided, and while it softened certain strong observations made in the earlier judgment, it maintained that these remarks were not integral to the decision. The outcome was a dismissal of the review petitions, reinforcing the finality of Supreme Court judgments.
