Section 156(3) provides for a check by the Magistrate on the police performing its duties under Chapter XII Cr.P.C. In cases where the Magistrate finds that the police has not done its duty of investigating the case at all, or has not done it satisfactorily, he can issue a direction to the police to do the investigation properly, and can monitor the same. 25. We have elaborated on the above matter because we often find that when someone has a grievance that his FIR has not been registered at the police station and/or a proper investigation is not being done by the police, he rushes to the High Court to file a writ petition or a petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. We are of the opinion that the High Court should not encourage this practice and should ordinarily refuse to interfere in such matters, and relegate the petitioner to his alternating remedy, firstly under Section 154(3) and Section 36 Cr.P.C. before the concerned police officers, and if that is of no avail, by approaching the concerned Magistrate under Section 156(3)." mijksDr fof/kd O;oLFkk vkfn dks ns[krs gq, ;kph&ifjoknh dks ;g funsZ'k fn;k tkrk gS fd og lacaf/kr eftLVªsV@U;k;ky; ds le{k viuk i{k j[kus gsrq vkosnu is'k dj ldrk gSA blh fVIi.kh ds lkFk ;g ;kfpdk fuLrkfjr dh tkrh gSA (UMA SHANKER VYAS),J Mittal /78
