Holding

The court found no ground for review and dismissed the review application.

Summary

Manoj Kumar Sinha filed a review application before the Patna High Court challenging the order dated 5 January 2024 in Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No. 17428 of 2019, which was passed against the State of Bihar and related officials. The petitioner sought a re‑examination of the earlier judgment, alleging that there were grounds for review. The learned counsel for both sides were heard, and the court examined whether any substantive or procedural basis existed to entertain a review. Justice Anil Kumar Sinha held that the petitioner had not demonstrated any valid ground for review of the impugned order. Consequently, the review application was dismissed, leaving the original order intact.
