Allahabad High Court
ANURAG YADAVversusSTATE OF U.P. AND 3 OTHERS
- Decided
Holding
The petition is disposed of, with the petitioner directed to file a fresh representation to the Superintendent of Police, who must decide it within one month.
Summary
The petitioner, Anurak Yadav, employed as a Helper in Meja Energy Nigam Pvt. Ltd., filed a writ petition alleging that the police had registered an NCR under Sections 115(2) and 3151(2) of the BNS against him, and that the responding authority failed to provide the verification report confirming his service. He claimed that despite multiple representations, no action was taken. The respondents argued that the petition could be disposed of without merit and suggested a direction to the Superintendent of Police to consider his grievance. The Court, without delving into the merits, dismissed the petition but allowed the petitioner to file a fresh representation, accompanied by a certified copy of the order, to the Superintendent of Police within one month, and directed the respondent to decide the matter within a month of receipt. The order thus provides a procedural remedy rather than a substantive adjudication of the grievance.
Issues considered
- What relief, if any, is available to the petitioner for the non‑issuance of the verification report by the police?
- Whether the writ petition should be entertained on its merits or disposed of with a direction to file a fresh representation?

HON'BLE SUDHANSHU CHAUHAN, J.
1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for
the State-respondents.
2. The petitioner has been appointed as Helper in Meja Energy Nigam Pvt.
Ltd. Thereafter, one NCR No.0128 of 2024, under Sections 115(2), 3151(2)
of BNS was registered against the petitioner at Police Station-
Macchalishahar, District Jaunpur. The grievance of the petitioner is that
respondent-authority is not providing the verification report from the
concerned police station regarding the service of petitioner in Meja Energy
Nigam Pvt. Ltd. despite the fact that petitioner has submitted several
representations to the respondent-authority, but till date no action has been
taken on the same.
3. Learned Standing Counsel submits that no useful purpose would be served
in keeping the writ petition pending and appropriate direction may be issued
to the respondent no.3 to consider the grievance of the petitioner.
4. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and without adverting
into the merits of the case, we dispose off the writ petition permitting the
petitioner to file a fresh representation alongwith certified copy of this order
raising all his grievances before the respondent no.3-Superintenent of Police,
Jaunpur within a period of one month from today. In case, any such
representation is filed by the petitioner, the respondent no.3 shall consider
