1. This application under Section 529 B.N.S.S. has been filed with a prayer to direct the Court of Addl. Chief Judicial Magistrate, Court No.6, Varanasi to decide the Complaint Case No.4256 of 2024, (Arti Singh Vs. Arun Kumar Gautam and others) under Section 12 of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, Police Station Lohta, District Varanasi pending before it, expeditiously within a stipulated period. 2. Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned A.G.A. for the State. 3. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the applicant that the present case has been filed under the Domestic Violence Act in the year 2024 and the applicant is the wife / complainant and she wants speedy trial of case that is pending since long. Therefore, it is urged that the court concerned may be directed for expeditious disposal of the aforesaid case. 4. I have considered the submissions and perused the record. 5. From the perusal of the order-sheet appended with the affidavit accompanying the present application it is not clear whether D.P.O. Report is available before the court concerned or not. However, since there is a mandatory provision to dispose of the matter under the Domestic Violence Act within a period of 60 days, keeping in view the hardship suffered by the applicant / aggrieved wife and also considering the object of the Domestic Violence Act, the Court concerned is directed to comply with the aforesaid mandate of the Domestic Violence Act itself and to decide the aforesaid case within two months from the date of production of certified copy of this order before it, if there is no legal impediment. It is further directed that no unnecessary adjournment will be sought/granted in the matter by/to either of
the parties. 6. It is also made clear that the Court / Presiding Officer is not the only stake holder in the trial and disposal of a case, hence, besides the P.O. concerned, all the stake holders i.e. police and executive authorities, counsels, parties to the case, staff etc.
are also made bound by this order and it will be their responsibility also to assist the Court in every manner for the expeditious disposal of this case. 7. With the above observations, the application stands disposed of. Order Date :- 7.3.2025 ss Digitally signed by :- SANDEEP SHARMA High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
