(3.) Thereafter, respondent filed review application being No. 602/2003 seeking modification of the order dated 30.1.2003. It was alleged that there was an error apparent on the face of that order inasmuch as while assessing the said amount, the State Commission did not take into consideration some of the valuable articles in sports shops, the total value whereof was Rs. 1,36,450/-. Application was contested by the petitioner. However, the State Commission while partly allowing application directed the petitioner to further pay sum of Rs. 50,000/- by modifying the said order dated 31.1.2003. The State Commission was of the view that it has got the powers to review its own order.
