Article 140 of CoI : Article 140: Ancillary Powers Of The Supreme Court

Explanation using Example

Imagine a situation where the Supreme Court of India is facing difficulties in managing the increasing number of cases related to environmental issues. To address this, Parliament decides to pass a law that grants the Supreme Court additional powers to establish a special Environmental Bench. This Bench would have the authority to handle all environmental cases, thus streamlining the process and allowing the Court to exercise its jurisdiction more effectively.

This law would be passed under the authority provided by Article 140 of the Constitution of India, as it confers supplemental powers to the Supreme Court without being inconsistent with the Constitution.
