In Brief
This case concerns a Review Petition filed under Article 136 of the Indian Constitution by the Principal of Kannur Medical College challenging an earlier order. The Supreme Court examined the Review Petition and the underlying Special Leave Petition proceedings. Finding no error apparent in the original order that warranted its reconsideration, the Court dismissed the Review Petition. The judgment affirms the principle that review petitions are maintainable only where a clear error is discernible on the face of the order.
