Revision by District Munsif of village court's proceedings

The District Munsif may, on a petition being presented within sixty days from the date of any decree or order of a village court by any party deeming himself aggrieved by such decree or order, set aside such decree or order on the ground—

of corruption, gross partiality or misconduct of the village court; or

of its having exercised a jurisdiction not vested in it by law, or otherwise acted illegally or with material irregularity; or

that the decree or order is clearly unjust

and may pass such other decree or order as he thinks fit; provided that no decree or order of a village court shall be set aside without notice to the opposite party. Pending disposal of any such petition, the District Munsif may stay execution of the decree or order.

A petition under this section may be entertained after sixty days by the District Munsif if he is satisfied with the cause shown for the delay.
