Can the Supreme Court bypass existing laws in the name of “Complete Justice”?
Article 142 of the Indian Constitution gives the Supreme Court extraordinary powers to ensure “complete justice.” But what happens when this extraordinary power appears to bypass statutory procedures?
In this video, we decode the Article 142 debate through the recent Supreme Court order involving the quashing of multiple FIRs related to nationwide examination protests.
Why is Article 142 controversial?
• Can the Supreme Court override or bypass statutory procedures?
• What exactly does “complete justice” mean?
• Does Article 142 encourage judicial activism or judicial overreach?
• Can different benches interpret this power differently?
• Does excessive use affect the separation of powers?
• Who checks the Supreme Court when its self-imposed limits are crossed?
