Case at a glance
Provisions considered
Judgment
1.2. Some of the instant appellants had challenged the CAR 2007, wherein it had been submitted that AIC 28/ 92 was based on better scientific studies. The same remained in operation for more than 17 years and no one had ever raised any grievance in respect of its contents G or application. However, it appears that during the pendency of the said writ petition, grievance of those petitioners stood redressed and, thus, they withdrew the writ petition. They did not even ask the court to reserve H 1022 SUPREME COURT REPORTS [2011] 5 S.C.R. A their right to file a fresh petition challenging the same, in case the need arose, as required in the principle enshrined in Order XXlll of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908. Such a conduct of those appellants in blowing hot and cold in the same breath is not worth approval. [Para B 15] [1035-F-H]
