JUDGEMENT

- (1.) 1. "And an appellate power interferes not when the order appealed is not right but only when it is clearly wrong. The difference is real, though fine".
(2.) Applying the litmus test set out by V.R. Krishna Iyer, J. more than two decades ago while speaking for the majority view in Gujarat Steel Tubes Ltd. Etc. v.

State of West Bengal and Ors W.P. 13489 (W) of 2010 on 29.6.2010 in this intra Court appeal.
(3.) In contemplation of our exercise thereof we must not lose sight of the fact that afterall we are performing nothing else but the extended power of Judicial Review already undergone before the first stage.
