Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court emphasized that the Tribunal is bound by the decisions of the High Court, specifically referencing the case of Kunja Behari Rath v. State of Orissa. The Court clarified that it is incorrect for the Tribunal to disregard High Court judgments. However, upon reviewing the merits, the Court found no grounds for interference with the Tribunal's order and dismissed the special leave petition.
