9.The learned Counsel relying on a decision of the Apex Court reported in (1997) 1 SUPREME COURT CASES 568 (U.P. STATE SUGAR CORPORATION V. SUMAC INTERNATIONAL LTD), would submit that in order to revoke a bank guarantee which is unconditional, the party who seeks to revoke the same, should show the fraud in connection with such bank guarantee either, or if the encashment of the unconditional bank guarantee is allowed, it would result in an irretrievable harm and injustice to one of the parties concerned; that if either of the grounds is not available, then an unconditional bank guarantee what is one in question cannot be allowed to be revoked; that under the circumstances, the first defendant/appellant should be allowed to invoke the same; that the contentions put forth by the plaintiffs/respondents 1 and 2 should have been rejected by the learned Single Judge, and therefore, the appeals have got to be ordered.
