Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC-LKO:6116 Court No. - 30 Case :- APPLICATION U/S 482 No. - 1857 of 2023 Applicant :- Vishwajeet Tiwari Opposite Party :- State Of U.P. Thru. Prin. Secy. Home U.P. Civil Secrett. Lko. And Others Counsel for Applicant :- Firoz Ahmad Khan Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A.,Chhote Lal Yadav Hon'ble Om Prakash Shukla,J. Heard learned counsel for applicant, learned Additional Government Advocate for State and learned counsel appearing for the opposite party no. 2. The present application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been filed to quash/set aside the impugned order dated 31.8.2021 passed by learned 9th Civil Judge, Junior Division/Judicial Magistrate, Faizabad in Criminal Misc. Case No. 49/2021 (Vishwajeet Tiwari vs. Ram Sanwarey & others) as well as impugned judgement and order dated 14.3.2022 passed by learned Additional District & Sessions Judge-9th, Faizabad in Criminal Revision No. 141 of 2021 (Vishwajeet Tiwari vs. State of U.P. and others). It is further prayed that the court concerned may be directed to dispose of the application under Section 156(3) CrPC filed by the applicant afresh. Submission of the learned counsel for the applicant is that the impugned order is apparently illegal and arbitrary and is without application of mind. He has further submitted that learned Magistrate ought to look into the matter whether prima facie cognizable offence is made out or not and after perusing the material evidence, he ought to direct to register an FIR. On the contrary, learned counsel appearing for the opposite party no. 2 has stated that this is a revenue dispute between the parties and the applicant is trying to give criminal colour to this dispute. I have perused the application under Section 156(3) CrPC as well as the impugned order. It is apparent that the dispute is pertaining to revenue and there is no material to show that any criminal offence is made out on the plain reading. In view of the above, this Court finds that the instant application under Section 482 CrPC lacks merit and consequently, the same is hereby dismissed. Interim order, if any, stands vacated. Consigned to records. Order Date :- 29.1.2025 Shravan Digitally signed by :- SHRAVAN KUMAR High Court of Judicature at Allahabad, Lucknow Bench
