section 151 CPC is regarding the inherent powers of the court. whenver an application is filed, as per convenience, section 151 is also mentioned so that the application is decided considering inherent powers also, of the court.

section 151 CPC speaks about the inherent powers of the court. It gives wide discretionary powers to the court and includes virtually anything which is not covered under the Code of Civil Procedure.

Section 151 CPC is inherent powers of the court which means if you missed out on anything in your application ,the court would grant you without mentioning the specific section for the same.
