The inherent powers under Section 482 CrPC cannot be invoked against an interlocutory order when the appeal is barred by Section 397(2) CrPC.
Orders under Section 311 Cr.P.C. are interlocutory and revisions against such orders are not maintainable, affirming the court's power to allow subsequent applications to ensure justice.
