Chander Bhan Gosain vs State Of Orissa & Ors on 5 April, 1963
If however a party has already availed of the alternative remedy while
invoking the jurisdiction under Article 226 it would not be appropriate for
the Court to entertain the writ petition. The Rule is based on public policy
but the motivating factor is the existence of a parallel jurisdiction in
another Court. But this Court has also held in Chandra Bhan Gosain Bhan V.
State of Orissa that even when an alternative remedy has been availed of by
a party but not pursued that the party could prosecute proceedings under
Article 226 for the same relief. This Court has also held that that when a
party has already moved the High Court under Article 226 and failed to obtain
relief and then moved an application under Article 32 before this Court for
the same relief, normally the Court will not entertain the application under
Article 32. But where in the parallel jurisdiction, the order is not a
speaking one or the matter has been disposed of on some other ground, this
Court has, in a suitable case, entertained the application under Article 32.
Instead of dismissing the writ petition on the ground that the alternative
remedy had been availed of, the Court may call upon the party to elect
whether it will proceed with the alternative remedy or with the application
under Article 226 Therefore the fact that a suit had already been filed by
the appellant was not such a fact the suppression of which could have
affected the final disposal of the writ petition on merits.?
