learned Magistrate returned the complaint again on 11.03.2024 stating
that some of the objections are not complied with. Accordingly, the

objections Nos.1 to 9. Later, it was re-presented on 11.03.2024 stating

good, but it was returned. The complaint was again re-presented on
18.03.2024 and on the very same day, it was returned stating that
objection Nos.1, 2, 4 and 5 are complied holds good. Hence, returned.
The written endorsement does not speak anything that the
complainant did not comply with the other objections or the defects
pointed out by the Court.
5) In those circumstances, the Criminal Petition is disposed of, at
the admissions stage, directing the learned Magistrate to receive the
complaint, as per law, and proceed, accordingly, forthwith.
