Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Madhya Pradesh High Court violated the principles of natural justice by allowing a Civil Revision under Section 115 of the CPC without issuing notice to the appellant. The Court emphasized that natural justice is fundamental to fair adjudication and must be adhered to unless explicitly stated otherwise in the statute. Consequently, the orders of the High Court were set aside, and the matter was remitted for fresh consideration after due notice to the appellant, thereby allowing the appeal.
