¶20

This Review Petition is filed seeking to review the judgment dated 13.10.2014 in W.A.No.1205 of 2014. It is pointed out by learned counsel for the review petitioner that the only review sought for is to modify the judgment to the extent that liability to pay interest at 10% on the balance amount Uhas been deleted. The Writ Appeal was filed against the judgment of the learned Single Judge. It was the contention of the learned Government Pleader that the direction issued by the learned Single Judge directing payment of the amount with interest was unreasonable.

¶21

¶22

RP.400/15 IN WA.1205/14

¶23

Having gone through the entire factual circumstances, we had deleted the liability to pay interest at 10% on the balance amount. It was found that non payment was on account of a genuine dispute between the parties and there was no reason to direct payment of interest on the balance amount payable.

¶24

Having regard to the fact that we had considered the matter on merits and taken a decision, no ground is made out as far as the direction to delete the interest portion is concerned. Accordingly, we do not find any reason to review the judgment. The Review Petition is dismissed.
