Judicial Service Exam Prep: Can a Judicial Magistrate Quash a Non-Mineral Order?

admin judiciary beginner poll_style

Yaar, I'm stuck on this question and need your help. A Judicial Magistrate can either revise a non-ministerial order under Section 5 of the Limitation Act or quash it under Article 226 of the Constitution. Now, one option says that a Judicial Magistrate can only revise the order, not quash it, because it's a non-ministerial order and can't be reviewed under Article 227. The other option says that a Judicial Magistrate has the power to quash the order under Article 226, even if it's a non-ministerial order, because the power to review is vested in the High Court, not the Magistrate. So, which one is correct and why?
