Though powers of a High Court under Articles 226 and 227 are very wide and extensive over all courts and tribunals throughout the territories in relation to which it exercises jurisdiction, such powers must be exercised within the limits of law. The power is supervisory in nature. The High Court does not act as a court of appeal or a court of error. It can neither review nor reappreciate, nor reweigh the evidence upon which determination of a subordinate court or inferior tribunal purports to be based or to correct errors of fact or even of law and to substitute its own decision for that of the inferior court or tribunal. The powers are required to be exercised most sparingly and only in appropriate cases in order to keep the subordinate courts and inferior tribunals within the limits of law."

Chander Kanta Bansal vs Rajinder Singh Anand on 11 March, 2008

17. The learned counsel for defendants relying on a decision of the Supreme Court, reported in (2008) 5 SCC 117 (in the case of Chander Kanta Bansal Vs. Rajinder Singh Anand), would submit that averments of affidavit would establish that defendants had exercised due diligence as expected of a prudent man and they could not plead these facts in the original written statement, due to lapse on the part of their previous counsel. Therefore, trial court has rightly accepted the application for amendment of written statement. This court in exercise of jurisdiction under article 27 227 of the Constitution of India cannot interfere with the findings recorded by trial court.
