Judgment :- 1. This is an appeal against the judgment of Vaidialingam, J., dismissing O. P. No. 412 of 1961. The O. P. was directed against Ext. P2 dated 29-11-1960 which reversed Ext. P1 dated 28-11-1959. 2. In Ext. P1 the Principal Munsiff of Ernakulam held that the order in R.C.P. No. 212 of 1955 and the statement of compromise filed on 3-1-1956 cannot be read together and construed as an order capable of execution. In Ext. P2 the Rent Control Revisional Authority, Ernakulam came to the conclusion that Ext. P1 cannot be supported, that the order in R.C.P. No. 212 of 1951 and the statement of compromise above-mentioned should be read together, and that when so read, there is an order capable of execution as contended by the respondent before us. 3. The only article of the Constitution invoked in the petition is Art.227. The contents of the petition also indicate that the petition is one under that article. 4. It is settled law that the jurisdiction under Art.227 unlike the jurisdiction under Art.226 is not an "original" but a "revisional" jurisdiction, a power which can conveniently be compared to the revisional power conferred by S.115 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (See 1961 Supreme Court Notes, Page 144), In AIR. 1955 Madras 287 Satyanarayana Rao, J. said: "The jurisdiction that was invoked whether it rightly falls under S.115, Civil P. C. or under Art.227 of the Constitution in our opinion, is the revisional jurisdiction and not the extra-ordinary original jurisdiction like the jurisdiction of this Court under Art.226 of the Constitution." To the same effect are AIR. 1953 Cal. 636 and AIR. 1957 All. 414 (FB.). In the latter case Beg, J., said: "The power exercised under Art.226 is original. On the other hand, the power exercised under Art.227 is not original. 5. S.5 of the Kerala High Court Act, 1958, provides: "An appeal shall lie to a Bench of two judges from a judgment or order of a Single Judge in the exercise of original jurisdiction. An appeal shall lie to a Bench of two judges from a judgment of a Single Judge in the exercise of appellate jurisdiction in respect of a decree or order made in the exercise of appellate jurisdiction by a subordinate court, where the judge who passed the judgment declares that the case is a fit one for appeal". An appeal shall lie to a Bench of two judges from a judgment of a Single Judge in the exercise of appellate jurisdiction in respect of a decree or order made in the exercise of appellate jurisdiction by a subordinate court, where the judge who passed the judgment declares that the case is a fit one for appeal". It must follow that in cases where a single judge exercises his jurisdiction under Art.227 of the Constitution - a jurisdiction which can in no sense be considered as "original"- no appeal will lie from his judgment or order, and that this appeal which is from a judgment under Art.227 of the Constitution should be dismissed. 6. In the result of what is stated above no other question arises for consideration and the appeal is hereby dismissed. No costs. 7. Before parting with this case we place on record our appreciation of the assistance we derived from Mr. V. Rama Shenoi, who addressed us as an amicus curiae.
