(Order of the Court was made by C.KUMARAPPAN, J.) The present Review Application has been filed against the order of this Court dated 24.08.2018, wherein, the respondents' request for employment under the "land looser" category was rejected. Page No.:2/5

2. Now, the review petitioner would submit that the writ appellate Court did not consider the rehabilitation Scheme, which was provided by the Authorities for job assistance.

3. The very submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioner comes within the category of re-hearing the appeal, which cannot be done by this Court under the review jurisdiction. Only the error apparent alone can be considered.

4. This, in our view, is not an error apparent . Hence, the present Review Application stands dismissed. No costs. (S.M.S., J.) (C.K., J.) 19.02.2026 dsa Internet :Yes/No Index :Yes/No :Yes/No Page No.:3/5
