Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court reiterated that under Article 141, its judgments are binding on all courts, emphasizing that the High Court's interim order violated its prior rulings, particularly in the case of K.S. Varghese. The Court held that the High Court has no authority to alter its binding decisions, and all pending matters must be resolved in accordance with the established judgment. The Court affirmed the principle that a representative suit under Section 92 CPC binds all interested parties, reinforcing the doctrine of res judicata as per Section 11 CPC.
