Shivdeo Singh & Ors vs State Of Punjab & Ors on 8 February, 1961

36. Article 226 or the Writ Proceedings Rules, 1977 made by the High Court of Andhra Pradesh made by the Andhra Pradesh High Court by virtue of Article 225 of the Constitution of India, do not specifically provide for a review of the orders passed under Article 226. But, being a Court of superior jurisdiction and a constitutional Court, the power of review and recall its own orders inhere in the High Court. This principle was first reiterated by the Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court in Shivdeo Singh v. State of Punjab, AIR 1963 SC 1909 and their Lordships observed that "it is sufficient to say that there is nothing in Article 226 of the Constitution of India to preclude a High Court from exercising the power of review which inheres in every Court of plenary jurisdiction to prevent miscarriage of justice or to correct grave and palpable errors committed by it." Therefore, if there are circumstances (i) of miscarriage of justice and/or (ii) to correct grave and palpable errors committed by it, the High Court can exercise power under Article 226 of the Constitution itself. Indeed, every Court exercising judicial power must be presumed to have inherent power to recall the orders, which are vitiated by fraud and misrepresentation.

34. The lucid and succinct narration of facts by My Lord the Chief Justice holds good and there is no necessity to repeat the same. By reason of the authority of the Full Bench judgment of this Court in A. Srinath v. A.P. State Transport Corporation, , there is no necessity to focus judicial process on the settled question of law that the provisions of Order 47 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (for brevity 'the Code') have no application to the proceedings under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.
