By means of the order impugned, the court below has rejected the aforementioned application. 6. Perusal of the application dated 06.07.2024 would go to show that the questions proposed to be put to the witness i.e. PW-1 have not been detailed in the application. As such no pleadings have been made in the application with regard to the relevancy of the same. 7. Apex Court in the case of Raja Ram Prasad Yadav Vs.
State of Bihar and Another (2013) 14 SCC 461 has clearly laid down the parameters which are required to be applied for judging the bonafide of an applicant filing an application under Section 311 Cr.P.C. When the application dated 06.07.2024 is examined in the light of aforesaid, this Court finds that no bonafide on the part of the applicant is reflected in filing the application dated 06.07.2024 under Section 311 Cr.P.C.
8. As such, no illegality can be said to have been committed by Court below in passing the order impugned. 9. In view of above, the present application fails and is liable to be dismissed. 10. It is, accordingly, dismissed. Order Date :- 19.3.2025 Jaswant Digitally signed by :- JASWANT KUMAR High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
