Inherent Powers Under Section 528 BNSS Cannot Circumvent Section 438(3) Revision Bar : J&K HC
The J&K High Court held that inherent powers under Section 528 BNSS cannot override the statutory bar on second revisions under Section 438(3), dismissing a petition challenging the denial of 19 defence witnesses in a Section 138 NI Act case where the defence was provable through sale deeds. The court also cited an unexplained 11-month delay in filing the revision.
