Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Nov-05-1999

Reported in: AIR2000Kant101; ILR2000KAR114

ORDERTirath S. Thakur, J. 1. Judicial review of Executive, Administrative and quasi-judicial orders, acknowledged as one of the most profound developments in the post Constitution era, is nevertheless subject to certain inherent limitations. Broadly speaking, the Courts have recognised that judicial review does not imply sitting in appeal over the decision under challenge. Lack of expertise with the Courts to correct decisions involving complex question requiring specialised knowledge of a given subject is yet another limitation which may defy a solution at the hands of the Court within judicially manageable dimensions.

(b) Committed an error of law. (c) Committed a breach of the principles of natural justice or (d) Arrived at a decision which no reasonable person ...
