The core legal question involves the sustainability of the lower court's decision in light of the grounds urged by the petitioners. The court held that the petition lacks merit and accordingly dismissed it. The key principle governing the matter is that a petition failing to disclose sufficient grounds for interference by the apex court must be dismissed.
