Bokaro Steel City, District Bokaro. … … Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Jharkhand. 2. The Deputy Commissioner, Bokaro, having office at Chas, P.O. & P.S. Chas, District Bokaro. 3. The Senior Superintendent of Police, Bokaro Steel City, P.O. & P.S. Bokaro Steel City, District Bokaro. 4. The Superintendent of Police, Bokaro Steel City, P.O. & P.S. Bokaro Steel City, District Bokaro. 5. The Officer In-Charge, Chas Police Station, P.O. & P.S. Chas, District Bokaro. … … Respondents ------ CORAM : SRI ANANDA SEN, J. ------ For the Petitioner(s) : Mr. Faiyaj Alam, Advocate For the Respondent(s) : Mr. Divyam, AC to SC-IV ----- 03/ 17.04.2025 By filing this Criminal Writ Petition, the petitioner has approached this Court for direction upon the respondents to register an F.I.R., as according to him in spite of informing the Officer Incharge, Chas Police Station, about the incident which is a cognizable offence, the F.I.R. has not been registered. 2. Heard. 3. It is well settled that once information of a cognizable offence is made, the F.I.R. has to be registered. If the F.I.R. is not registered, there are other alternative efficacious remedies available as per the Cr.P.C. and also as per the BNSS. 4. Admittedly, the petitioner has not availed the said remedies. Thus, I am not inclined to entertain this writ petition. 5. Accordingly, this Criminal Writ Petition is dismissed. 6. The petitioner may avail the alternative efficacious remedies available to him as per the Statute. (ANANDA SEN, J.) Prashant. Cp-3
