THIS REVIEW PETITION IS FILED UNDER ORDER XLVII RULE 1 R/W SEC. 114 OF CPC, 1908, PRAYING TO., REVIEW THE JUDGMENT DATED 11.01.2023 IN RSA NO.1026/2014 (DEC-INJ) FILED BEFORE THIS HONBLE COURT.

CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SACHIN SHANKAR MAGADUM

Board .vs. N. Raju Reddiar1, the present counsel has no locus to file this review petition.
2. Be that as it may, on examining the grounds urged in the review petition, this Court is of the view that the petitioner under the garb of review is insisting re- hearing, which is not permissible under Order XLVII Rule 1 of CPC.
3. On examination of the grounds urged in the review petition, this Court is of the view that no error apparent is made out. It is a trite law that the Court cannot under the cover of review arrogate to itself the power to decide the case afresh. Parties who have suffered a decree cannot persuade to reassess the evidence. The Apex Court in the case of Ramu Sahu(Dead) Through LRs and others .vs. Vinod Kumar Rawat and Others2 has clearly held that review proceedings has to be strictly confined to the ambit of
Order XLVII Rule 1 of CPC. In the present review petition,

the review petitioners have failed to point out mistake apparent on the face of the record. An error which is not self-evident and has to be detected by a process of
reasoning, can hardly be said to be an error apparent on the face of the record warranting interference by invoking the power of Order XLVII of CPC.
4. For the foregoing reasons, the review petition is devoid of merits and accordingly, stands dismissed.
