Heard Mr. Niraj Kishore, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr.

Bhola Nath Ojha, learned counsel for the State.

This petition has been filed for direction upon the respondent no.

According to learned counsel for the petitioner it was incumbent

upon the concerned police station to lodge F.I.R. in view of judgment in the case

of " Lalita Kumari Vs. Govt. of U.P., reported in (2014) 2 SCC 1.

Learned counsel for the State submits that as the petitioner is

having alternative remedy, this writ petition is not maintainable. He further

submits that investigation has taken place and a proceeding under section 107

Cr.P.C. has been initiated against the concerned persons.

In view of above facts and considering that the proceeding under

section 107 Cr.P.C. has been initiated, nothing survives in this petition. If the

petitioner is still aggrieved with, he will take steps in terms of Cr.P.C. for redressal

of his grievance.

With the above observations, this writ petition stands disposed of.
