Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:86882 Court No. - 80 Case :- APPLICATION U/S 529 BNSS No. - 1297 of 2025 Applicant :- Arif Khan Opposite Party :- State Of U.P. And 3 Others Counsel for Applicant :- Ajay Vikram Singh Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Nalin Kumar Srivastava,J.
1. This application under Section 529 BNSS has been filed with a prayer to direct the court concerned to decide the S.T. No.185 of 2024 (State Vs. Shaukeen and others) arising out of Case Crime No.0033 of 2024 under Sections 302, 201 IPC and Sections 4, 25, 27 Arms Act, P.S. Khekada, District Baghpat, pending in the Court of Addl. District Judge / F.T.C.-I, Baghpat, expeditiously within a stipulated period. 2. Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned A.G.A. for the State. 3. It has been submitted by the learned counsel for the applicant that the applicant before this Court is the informant of this case. Matter relates to the year 2024 and only two witnesses have been examined so far including the applicant / informant and now the prosecution is not taking any interest to submit further evidence in this matter. Only dates are being fixed in the matter. 4. I have considered the submissions and perused the entire record. 5. A perusal of the order-sheet reflects that the trial court is making all possible endeavours to record the evidence of witnesses after summoning them. Three witnesses have already been examined. Therefore, there is no need to pass any direction to the court concerned. However, it is expected from the court concerned to dispose of the case under reference as expeditiously as possible without granting any unnecessary adjournments to either of the parties, keeping in view the work load in the said Court, if there is no other legal impediment. 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.
