High Court Has Ample Power Under Article 226 To Issue Directions Not Specifically Sought Before Tribunal: Kerala HC

The Kerala High Court addressed a challenge under Article 226 regarding the jurisdiction of tribunals, asserting that directives from the Tribunal cannot be executed unless they fall within the boundaries of their jurisdiction. The Court ruled that the tribunal’s powers must be explicitly defined by the statute, and any action outside this scope would be unlawful. This judgment emphasized the need to uphold statutory limits on tribunals' authority, ensuring that their actions remain within the framework of the law and do not overstep the boundaries of their designated powers.
