The petitioner in person is directed to implead the District Magistrae, Bijnor as party to the case during the course of the day. 3. This is a writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India wherein the writ petitioner has made the following prayers:- "(i) Issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus, commanding and direct the respondents authorities to decide the representations dated 27.11.2024 and 7.12.2024 moved the petitioner before the police authorities and to take necessary action against the respondent No.4 to 10. (ii) Issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus, commanding and direct the respondents authorities to protect the life of the petitioner from the Respondent No.4 to 10. (iii) Issue any other order(s) which this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper in the circumstances of the case." 4. Upon perusal of the documents, it transpires that the petitioner has made two representations dated November 27, 2024 and December 7, 2024 seeking security from the police authorities against the respondent No.4 to 10. The petitioner alleges in the writ petition that she is under threat of her life from these respondents. 5. Per contra, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the respondent No.4 submits that the facts as disclosed in the writ petition are not complete and the writ petitioner has filed several cases against several persons which have not been brought on record. He further submits that several cases have also been filed against the petitioner which is admitted by the petitioner appearing in person. 6. Upon a perusal of documents, we are of the view that we need not to go into merits of the various cases that have been filed by the petitioner and/or against the petitioner. This writ petition is simpliciter a writ seeking protection from the private respondents against whom first information report has been lodged by the petitioner and in some of which charge sheets have also been filed. 7. However, we are of the view that the representations made by the petitioner are not in accordance with law as the same should be made before the District Magistrate/District Level Committee that is incharge of looking into such aspects of providing security, if and when required. 8. In light of the same, we dispose of this writ petition directing the petitioner to file a fresh representation in correct format seeking protection, before the District Level Committee headed by the District Magistrate, Bijnor within a period of ten days from date. If such a representation is filed, the District Magistrate/District Level Committee shall look into the said issue and pass a reasoned order after granting an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner and the private respondents, within a period of four weeks, thereafter, in accordance with law. 9. We make it clear that we have not gone into merits of any of the cases filed by and/or against the petitioner. Order Date :- 18.3.2025 Dev (Kshitij Shailendra,J.) (Shekhar B. Saraf,J.)
