yes civil court even has jurisdiction in that event subject to condition that the statutory authorities as not acted in conifrmity with procedure and guidelines it is the plenary power of the civil court to determine its own jurisdiction when the procedure adopted and order passed by not adopting correct procedure guidelines rules or it is against the principle of natural justice a S.C o this point

As "expressly barred by a legislation". Then so question of jurisdiction arise.

Raghav Sir is absolutely right. The Supreme Court Judgment is five Judges Bench Judgment reported in AIR 1969 Supreme Court 78.

 

Please post latest Judgments of Supreme Court on this point.

I appreciate the response of Dr. Tripathi. Thankful to him for valuable guidance and for posting the article. He is correct that simple answer to simple query is no but there are certain situations where a civil court can try a civil suit despite express bar of its jurisdiction. I intended to highlight this aspect only. Thanks again.
