G.L. VIJAIN vs K. SHANKAR

The Supreme Court examined the extent of the High Court's revisional jurisdiction under Section 25 of the Tamil Nadu Buildings (Lease and Rent Control) Act, 1960. It held that the High Court possesses plenary jurisdiction and can impose conditions while admitting a revision petition, as its powers are implied and not limited by express provisions. The Court affirmed that the revisional power under Section 25 is broader than that under Section 115 of the Code of Civil Procedure, allowing for greater flexibility in procedural matters.
