SHAKEEL AHMAD, J.- Shafi Ullah petitioner , through the present petition, seeks review of order dated 08.10.2018, rendered in constitutional petition No.879-D of 2017, whereby this Court dismissed the writ petition.
2. It was mainly argued by the learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner is a disabled person and he was entitled to be considered for appointment as PST against the reserved quota of disable persons.
3. We find that although the ground now agitated before us was available to the petitioner , when the petition was argued, yet as it is evident from the order under review , the learned counsel for the petitioner did not raise the said contention at the relevant point of time. Perusal of the prayer clause of the writ petition reflects that the appointment was not sought on the plea of disability . Thus, the petitioner is now precluded from urging the contention in review proceedings, which was not argued at the time of hearing the petition. In this beha lf, reliance can be placed on the judgment reported as Mian Rafique Saigal and another Vs. Bank of Credit and Commerce International (Overseas) Ltd. And another (PLD 1997 S.C. 865). Moreover , the assertion of the learned counsel did not constitute either an error apparent on the face of the record or discovery of new and important facts and evidence on record, which grounds are sine qua non for exercising review jurisdiction of this Court. In this context, reliance can well be placed on the judgment reported as Mst. Kalsoom Maliki and others Vs. Assistant Commissioner and others (1996 SCMR 710) and Daewoo Corporation Vs. Zila Council Jhang and 2 others (2004 SCMR 1213 ).
4. For what has been discussed above, this petition, being bereft of merits, is dismissed in limine.
