Summary The Jharkhand High Court dismissed the review petition and rejected the application for condonation of 1738 days (approximately 5 years) delay. The court held that the petitioner's cause of action arose on 16th September 2015 when the original appeal was dismissed, not on 21st April 2020 when a conflicting judgment was delivered in a similar matter, and no sufficient cause was shown to justify the inordinate delay. However, the court noted that the Union of India, being party to both proceedings, should have placed the previous judgment before the later bench to avoid inconsistent orders. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
