Power of attorney - revocation

(Querist) 02 June 2012 This query is : Resolved 
"A" executed power of attorney in favour of "B" authorising him to do several acts and deeds one of them was to sale the land belonging to "A" and authorising "B" to recover the debt due to B from the sale consideration.

My question is :

1) Whether this Power of attorney can be revoked or not.
2) Whether the above POA can be revoked if there is an express condition that it can be revoked.
3) Whether paper publication is required to be given in all case of revocation of power of attorney. Whether paper publication is compulsory under any legislation in case of revocation of poa.
4)Whether any legal notice is required to be given to attorney holder or agent in respect of cancellation of poa.
4) Are there any cases that are pertaining to revocation of poa, that can be referred.

This is a agency coupled with interest.
This type of POA can not be revoked at the sweet will of the principal until the interest of the agent/constituted attorney is satisfied.
Adv.R.P.Chugh (Expert) 02 June 2012
I endorse Ld.Burman Ji it is indeed an agency coupled with interest as per S.202 of the Indian Contract Act and hence irrevocable, this is for the reason that the agent has a pre-existing interest in the form of debt already given - if this agency is allowed to be revoked it amounts to fraud and breach of trust.
