    Question

    The Supreme Court of India has evolved a curative petition under:

    A.

    Article 136 of the Constitution

    B.

    Article 143 of the Constitution

    C.

    Article 32 of the Constitution

    D.

    Article 142 of the Constitution

    Correct option is D


    Article 142 empowers the Supreme Court to pass any order necessary to do complete justice in any cause or matter pending before it. The Curative petition was developed under this Article to correct gross miscarriages of justice even after a review petition has been dismissed.

    Curative petitions allow the Supreme Court to rectify gross miscarriage of justice under its extraordinary powers given by Article 142.
    Additional Information:
    · Option (a): Article 136 provides for special leave to appeal, not curative petitions.
    · Option (b): Article 143 deals with the President's power to seek advisory opinions from the Supreme Court.
    · Option (c): Article 32 deals with the right to Constitutional remedies for Fundamental Rights violations, not curative petitions.
