Md. Aziz Alam And Ors. vs Union Of India (Uoi) And Ors. on 19 July, 2000
(c) In addition to the bar contained in Order 47 Rule 1
of CPC, the Hon'ble Supreme Court has taken the
view that once a matter gets settled between the
parties before the judicial forum, the same cannot
be reopened merely on the ground that in some
other matter filed at the instance of some other
party who is similarly situated, that Tribunal or the
court had provided some relief. Therefore, the
decision taken by the Central Commission is as well
against the dictum laid down by the Hon'ble
Supreme Court in 2001 (10) SCC 93 Mohd. Azim
Alam vs. Union of India.
