Constitution of Pakistan, 1973-- ----Art. 199s were employees of Peshawar Public School--Entitlement for employees for free of cost education for their children--Beneficial facility--Non-statutory rules--Maintainability--Principle of res-judicata--Constitutional jurisdiction fiscal matter--Some of present petitioners had earlier filed writ petitions with same grievance and request, have already been decided rather dismissed by this Court hence, this petition is hit by principle of res judicata.
