4. At the very outset, the learned A.G.A. submits that applicant has rushed to this Court by filing present application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. without availing the statutory remedy available under Section 227 Cr.P.C. Learned A.G.A. further submits that court below can deal with the grounds raised in support of this application thread bare at the first instance as it has the advantage of original record. On the above premise, the learned A.G.A. submits that no interference is warranted by this Court in present application under Section 482 Cr.P.C.
5.
When confronted with above, the learned counsel for applicant could not overcome the same. 6. Having heard the learned counsel for applicant, the learned A.G.A. for State and upon perusal of record this court finds that no useful purpose shall be served in keeping this application pending, as the grounds raised by the learned counsel for applicant in support of this application can very well be examined by court below meticulously at the time of deciding the discharge application as court below has the advantage of having the original record. 7. Accordingly this application is disposed of finally with a
direction to the applicant to approach court below by filing a discharge application in terms of Section 227 Cr.P.C. seeking his discharge in above mentioned criminal case. In case, such a discharge application is filed by applicant within a period of two weeks from today alongwith a certified copy of this order, the court below shall proceed to decide the same by a reasoned and speaking order within a period of two months thereafter, provided there is no other legal impediment. 8. It goes without saying that till the disposal of discharge application as directed above, court below shall not proceed further with the matter.
