REENA YADAV AND ANOTHERversusSTATE OF U.P. AND 2 OTHERS

Decided

Holding

The petition was dismissed as ineffective because an FIR had already been registered.

Summary

The petitioners Reena Yadav and another filed a writ petition before the Allahabad High Court. The senior permanent advocate informed the court that an FIR under Section 87 of the B.N.S. (case No. MU‑A‑S‑417 of 2026) had already been registered on 15 September 2026 at Bilgram police station, Hardoi district. The petitioners' counsel could not refute this statement. Consequently, the court held that the petition was rendered ineffective due to the existence of the FIR. The petition was therefore dismissed as ineffective.

Issues considered
