This Court has no jurisdiction under article 226 of the Constitution of India to pass directions unto the civil/criminal courts for expediting the hearing of a civil/criminal case pending before a given Court, as the only available jurisdiction in this context is traceable to article 227 of the Constitution of India vesting supervisory jurisdiction in this Court vis-à-vis the Courts and Tribunals. 02.
