In which of the following cases Supreme Court of India laid down the principle that Article 136 is not a regular form of appeal at all ?
Keshav Prasad Sharma v. Indian Oil Corporation, (2011) 2 SCALE 2
The Supreme Court has repeatedly held that Article 136 is not a regular avenue of appeal but a residuary, discretionary and extraordinary jurisdiction to be invoked only in cases involving grave injustice or substantial questions of law of public importance. This principle was emphatically restated in Keshav Prasad Sharma v. Indian Oil Corporation (2011) 2 SCALE 2, where the Court underlined that special leave under Article 136 is exceptional and not a matter of right. Earlier decisions like Pritam Singh v. State (1950) and Kunhayammed v. State of Kerala (2000) had already laid this down. Hence, Article 136 remains a discretionary power sparingly exercised.
