Judgment & Decree
IFTIKHAR MUHAMMAD CHAUDHRY, J.
In listed petitions grievance of the petitioners is that their cases are not to be governed by the policy of 11th March, 1996 i.e. "the Rules and Regulations for appearance of old candidates in Divisional Accounts .Officer's. Examination" but the record reveals that they themselves have accepted the new arrangement and in pursuance thereof availed three chances as they appeared in examinations but could not qualify the same, therefore, in such view of the matter the learned Single Bench of the High Court as well as Federal Service Tribunal declined to interfere in the policy of the Government. In our opinion once the petitioners themselves accepted the new system of examination they cannot be allowed to argue that their cases will not be governed by new policy. Besides it no point of public importance is involved in the petitions. For the foregoing reasons the petitions are dismissed and leave declined. H.B.T./I- 109/SC???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Petition dismissed.
