P.P. CORAM: THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE CHITTARANJAN DASH Order No. ORDER 26.11.2025 01. 1. Heard learned counsel for the Parties. 2. By means of this application, the Petitioner seeks the intervention of this Court for a direction to the Opposite Parties to take appropriate action and cause proper investigation in connection with Fategarh P.S. Case No.287 of 2025. 3. Mr. Palit, the learned senior Advocate appearing for the Petitioner, inter alia, submitted that despite the FIR being registered on 08.09.2025 in the offence under Sections 126(2)/296/115(2)/117(2)/74/351(2)/3(5) of BNS, the investigation in the matter has not progressed. 4. Keeping in view the aforesaid submissions of Mr. Palit, and the nature of the offences alleged in the FIR, it is expected that the investigating agency ought to have proceeded with utmost sincerity in conducting the investigation with fairness and diligence. However, the grievance of the learned counsel being also on the aspect that it should proceed with expeditiousness, the Opposite Party No.2 i.e. the Superintendent of Police, Nayagarh, is directed to examine the matter and pass appropriate instructions to Opposite Party No.3 and/or the I.O. concerned to ensure a fair and diligent investigation, and to reach a logical conclusion by submission of the Final Form, if any, in accordance with law, if there be no other legal impediment, within a period of one month hence. 5. Accordingly, the CRLMP stands disposed of. (Chittaranjan Dash) Judge Bijay
