HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE R.K.GAUBA

O R D E R

% 17.08.2018 The petition at hand invokes the extraordinary jurisdiction of this court under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (Cr.P.C.) bringing a challenge to the order of the Metropolitan Magistrate framing charge against the petitioner in the criminal case arising out of case FIR No.147/2012 of Police Station Hari Nagar.

The remedy of revision was available and there is no reason why byepassing such remedy, the inherent jurisdiction should have been invoked. This question was raised at the very outset but, thereafter, never addressed. The petition is dismissed.

The interim orders stand vacated.

The petitioner, however, will have the liberty to pursue the revisional remedy against the impugned order in accordance with law. Pending application also stands disposed of.

R.K.GAUBA, J.
