Mr. Gaganeshwar Walia, Addl. Advocate General, Punjab. **** 



 

 The grievance of the petitioner, who happens to be a complainant, is essentially of nonregistration of offences by the concerned police authorities despite the said authorities having been informed of commission of cognizable offences.

2.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner wants action to be taken against respondents Nol. 4 to 8 with regard to the commission of alleged offences in accordance with law. 3.

The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) 2023 provides for ample remedy to the petitionercomplainant arising out of the cause of nonregistration of case as well as nonconduction of investigation in a free, fair and expeditious manner. The provision of Section 156(3) of the Code of Criminal Procedure (Section 175 of BNSS) and Section 200 of Code of Criminal Procedure (Section 223 of BNSS) can very well be invoked by the complainant by filing an application before the Magistrate of the area concerned.
