K. KARUNAKARAN vs T. V. EACHARA WARRIER

The Supreme Court held that under Article 136 of the Constitution, it can intervene to prevent gross injustice, emphasizing that interference is warranted only when a High Court's order is manifestly perverse or palpably unjust. The Court upheld the High Court's decision to initiate perjury proceedings against the appellant under Section 193 IPC, finding that a prima facie case was established. The appeal was dismissed as the Court found no justification to overturn the High Court's order.
