Learned counsel for the petitioners contended that the Tribunal acted contrary to law in giving this concession to the respondent whose record was not clean. We are not concerned with that. All that we have to see is whether the order of the Tribunal is in accordance with law or there is any question of public importance to be determined. There is no such thing in the impugned order. Hence the petition is dismissed. M.BA./G‑175/S Petition dismissed.
