(h) In exercise of its power of superintendence High Court
cannot interfere to correct mere errors of law or fact or just

jurisdiction has to be very sparingly exercised.
(i) High Court's power of superintendence under Article 227
cannot be curtailed by any statute. It has been declared a part
of the basic structure of the Constitution by the Constitution

India & others, reported in (1997) 3 SCC 261 and therefore
abridgement by a Constitutional amendment is also very
doubtful.
