"(1) Subject to what is stated in (2) below, we hold that the decision of the Allahabad Bench dated 20-2-1985 in the cases of Parmanand Lal and Brij Mohan [ Writ Neutral Citation Number: 2023:DHC:5497-DB Petition Nos. 2739 and 2652 of 1991, decided on 20-2-

1985] and the judgments of the Tribunal following the said decision lay down good law and constitute good precedents to be allowed in similar cases. We reject the contentions of the interveners to the contrary and further hold that having urged before the Supreme Court their various contentions and their SLP having been dismissed by the Supreme Court, they cannot reagitate the matter before us. We, therefore, dismiss MP Nos. 3396, 3397, 3493 and 3494 of 1991 in OA No. 2407 of 1988 as being devoid of any merit.

Union of India [1993 Supp (4) SCC Neutral Citation Number: 2023:DHC:5497-DB 693 : 1994 SCC (L&S) 366 : (1994) 26 ATC 367 : cited at pp. 90-116 of the paper book of C.A. Nos. 1813-13-A of 1993] and this Court (J.S. Verma and Anand, JJ.) in an elaborate judgment took the same view as that of the Allahabad High Court noticed by the Principal Bench of the Tribunal in the aforesaid case of Parmanand Lal and Brij Mohan [ Writ Petition Nos. 2739 and 2652 of 1991, decided on 20-2-1985] which has become final and has been upheld by this Court on merits. It is thus not necessary to dwell on the first question decided by the Principal Bench any further.
