- Inherent powers can be restored to if there is no specific provision on the statute book dealing with a situation — If the contention that despite the specific provision for redressal of grievance on the statute book, inherent powers can be invoked, is accepted, it would tantamount to render the whole law on the statute book as redundant because in that eventuality every litigant can advance the argument that he could not prove his case legally but in the interest of justice he is to be given relief by invoking the inherent powers.
