Holding

Summary

The court examined the procedural deficiency and concluded that the review could not be entertained in its present form. Consequently, the court disposed of the review application, granting the applicants permission to file a fresh application with complete documentation. The court also imposed a cost of Rs.1000 to be deposited with the District Legal Services Authority within one week.
