Breaking News: Second Review Petition Dismissed, Now Curative Petition is Last Ray of Hope

Dear Friends,
           It is the sad and bad news for us that our second review petition is also not accepted. Now the Curative Petition is the last ray of hope. Let us see what do we mean by Curative Petition? 
          As laid down by the Supreme Court in the case of Rupa Ashok Hurrah vs. Ashok Hurrah 2002 (4) SCC 388, even after dismissal of a review petition
under Article 137 of the Constitution, Supreme Court, may entertain a curative petition and reconsider its judgment/order, in exercise of its inherent powers in order to prevent abuse of its process, to cure gross miscarriage of justice and such a petition can be filed only if a Senior Advocate certifies that it meets the requirements of this case. Such a petition is to be first circulated, in chambers, before a Bench comprising of three senior most judges and such serving judges who were members of the Bench which passed the judgment/order, subject matter of the petition.
