Akhilesh Yadav vs Vishwanath Chaturvedi & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the limited scope of review petitions under Order 47 of the Code of Civil Procedure, emphasizing that a review is permissible only for errors apparent on the face of the record. The Court upheld its previous direction to the CBI to investigate allegations of disproportionate assets against certain respondents under the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988, despite challenges regarding jurisdiction under Section 6 of the Delhi Special Police Establishment Act, 1946. The Court concluded that the review petitions did not demonstrate any material irregularity warranting a change in the original order.
