UGAM SINGH Vs. STATE OF RAJASTHAN

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THIS is an application in revision, filed by Ugam-Singh petitioner, against the order of the learned District Magistrate, Bikaner dated January 31, 1983, by which the petitioner was directed to remove himself out side the District of Bikaner for a period of six months commencing from 1-2-1983 under sub-section (3), clause (s) of Section 3 of the Rajasthan Control of Goondas Act, 1975 (hereinafter referred to as 'the Act') and to desist from entering the district of Bikaner until the expiry of the said period.

(2.) THE relevant facts giving rise to this revision petition may briefly be stated as follows:

(3.) MR. N. S. Acharya on the other hand, urged that the revisional jurisdiction can be exercised by the High Court suo-moto on the basis of its own knowledge gathered from any source whatsoever or on the application of the aggrieved person or of any other person and that such powers are not affected by the fact that the aggrieved person could not file an appeal against the order of the subordinate court, which is on the face of the record illegal, improper and unreasonable. In support of his contention, MR. Acharya, learned counsel for the petitioner relied upon Ramesh Chandra J. Thakur v. A. P. Jhavari (1) and Pratap v. State of U. P. (2 ).
