Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the jurisdiction under Article 136 of the Constitution, emphasizing that it is an extraordinary jurisdiction that should be exercised with caution and care. The Court held that there is no vested right for a party to approach the Supreme Court under Article 136, and such discretion should only be exercised to prevent injustice. The Court also referenced the necessity of adhering to binding precedents while exercising this power, highlighting the importance of judicial discipline in maintaining the integrity of the legal process.
