Sabita Sahoo vs Capt. Khirod Kumar Sahoo-20/03/1990

it would be reasonable to assume that the Magistrate is vested with all ancillary powers necessary for the purpose of effectual and proper exercise of jurisdiction vested in him under Section 125, Cr.P.C. The power to permit the petitioner to amend the application under Section 125, Cr.P.C. is, in my view, an ancillary power of a purely procedural nature.
