Bench: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Muhammad Karim Khan Agha, Hon'ble Mr. Justice Adnan-ul-Karim Memon(Author) Order Date: 03-SEP-25
Under Article 199 of the Constitution, the High Court has a discretionary power to act in support of the law and protect constitutional rights. This power is reserved for extraordinary situations to ensure justice is served, not to allow injustice to continue. If it is determined that substantial justice has already been achieved between the parties, the Court may choose not to use this discretionary jurisdiction. 9. Since the petitioner has repeatedly challenged the decision before the various forums and the Supreme Court vide order dated 12.3.2020 in S.M.C. No.13/2016 directed him to agitate his claim before the appropriate forum and his representations / appeals have consistently been rejected by all competent authorities, there is no reason to interfere with the findings under Article 199 of the Constitution. 10. This petition lacks merit and is accordingly dismissed in limine along with pending application(s), if any.
