It has been a consistent view of Constitutional Courts that when alternate efficacious remedy is available, the inherent jurisdiction of the Court cannot be invoked.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Supreme Court in <em>Shalini Shyam Shetty v.

Its exercise must be restricted to grave dereliction of duty and flagrant abuse of fundamental principle of law and justice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This Court in <em>Jatinder Nath Bakshi v. State of J&amp;K<\/em>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/k5x0h0bX\">2009 SCC OnLine J&amp;K 90<\/a>, had held that the power under Section 561-A J&amp;K Cr.PC has to be exercise sparingly and in the rarest of rare cases.
