Article 137 of CoI : Article 137: Review of judgments or orders by the Supreme Court.

Explanation using Example

Example 1:

Rajesh was convicted of a serious crime by the Supreme Court of India, and a judgment was pronounced against him. After the judgment, new evidence came to light that could potentially prove Rajesh's innocence. Rajesh's lawyer filed a petition for a review of the judgment under Article 137 of the Constitution of India. The Supreme Court, considering the new evidence and the provisions of any law made by Parliament or rules under Article 145, decided to review the judgment. Upon review, the Supreme Court found the new evidence credible and acquitted Rajesh.

Example 2:

Meera was involved in a civil dispute over property ownership, and the Supreme Court passed an order in favor of the opposing party. Meera believed that there was a significant error in the interpretation of the law in the Supreme Court's order. She filed a review petition under Article 137, arguing that the error had led to an unjust decision. The Supreme Court, adhering to the provisions of any law made by Parliament or rules under Article 145, agreed to review the order. After re-evaluating the legal arguments, the Supreme Court acknowledged the error and modified its original order, thereby granting relief to Meera.
