The central inquiry seeks to answer the contemporaneous question of whether Article 142 can be invoked to make an order or pass a decree which is inconsistent or in express conflict with the substantive provisions of a statute. To aid this inquiry, cases where the apex court has granted a decree of divorce by mutual consent in exercise of Article 142(1) have been examined extensively. Thus the note also examines the efficacy and indispensible nature of this power in nebulous cases where the provisions of a statute are insufficient for solving contemporary problems or doing complete justice. INTRODUCTION An exemplary provision, Article 142(1) of the Constitution of India envisages that the Supreme Court in the exercise of its jurisdiction may pass such enforceable decree or order as is necessary for doing ‘complete justice’ in any cause or matter pending before it. While the jurisprudence surrounding other provisions of the Constitution has developed manifold, rendering them more concrete and stable interpretations, Article 142(1) is far from tracing this trend. The nature and scope of power contemplated in Article 142(1) has continued to be mooted imaginatively.

    IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) e-ISSN: 2278-1684, p-ISSN: 2320-334X. PP 07-12 www.iosrjournals.org Analysis of causal factors of Accidents on Highways in Haryana Analysis of Causal Factors of Accidents on Highways in Haryana Gyanendra Singh1, S. N. Sachdeva2, Mahesh Pal3, 1(Department of Civil engineering DCRUST, Murthal, Sonepat, India) 2,3(Department of Civil engineering, NIT, Kurukshetra, India) Abstract : Haryana is one of the states experiencing a fast growth of road network through NHDP and PMGSY. This has resulted in a rapid growth of various types of traffic modes on the highways. In absence of proper safety measures and design of crossings Traffic from nearby villages merges with the through traffic in a very dangerous manner resulting a large number of traffic accidents and fatalities. For this study traffic and accident data on NH-1, SH-11 and SH-20 was collected and the trends were analyzed. The results indicate the presence of mixed traffic on various roads but the share of non motorized traffic was found very low on NHs. The trends of fatalities indicate heavy involvement of trucks and cars in accidents, and VRUs as major victims. Keywords–Highway Safety Mixed Traffic, Road Accidents, Traffic Volume, Vulnerable Road Users (VRU). I. Introduction Indian road network of more than 48.65 lakh kms,[1] is one of the largest in the world and experiencing a fast and unprecedented growth through NHDP and PMGSY.
