This post will give links to various websites of State police departments in India, where one can find FIR and download a copy. Note: these are NOT about filing an FIR (First Information Report), but only to find and download electronic copy of an already existing FIR which has been uploaded by respective state’s police. The direction to upload copy of FIRs came about due to this judgment by Supreme Court in 2016, the main intention being to protect rights of the accused who by law (CrPC) could not get copy of FIR until filing of charge-sheet by police in court. Now, by having access to online FIR, the accused can easily get the FIR copy (without paying bribes etc), and start preparing for investigation, or defence before impending trial. How to use the … [Read more...] about How to search, find, and download electronic copy of FIR uploaded by Police?

How to complain against judges of trial courts, High Courts, and Supreme Court?
This post is about how to complain against any judge be it trial courts, high courts, or supreme court in India. Right now it is being written with information collected from various places and based on personal experiences of people, and over time will have authoritative information. This post however does not cover about bad or unbecoming conduct of a judge outside of a court or trial scenario. Complain against judge cannot solely be because of a ‘bad’ judgment or order which has gone against you. Remember that in every interim order/final judgment one of the two opposing parties may not like the order. But that by itself doesn't become of a case of complaint against judge, because judge may have followed the law and appreciated the evidence and no bias or misconduct may be proven … [Read more...] about How to complain against judges of trial courts, High Courts, and Supreme Court?
Template/Format for newspaper apology by wife for filing false complaint or cases
Friends, many a husbands have gone through the un-envious situation of having to deal with a wife who has dragged them to CAW cell/mahila thana, to police, or filed cases like DV/CrPC 125; and if that was not enough, later she proclaims that she wants to come back, or even files an RCR (restitution of conjugal rights) petition on husband in family court. I have already outlined in this post in some detail on how to handle such now-I-hate-you-now-I-want-you type of wife. But I have realized that the “thanks but no thanks” approach is not working out for many husbands, who want to give one more chance to wife (or to marriage) to come back and make their life into the promised heaven that it was supposed to be when they got married. For such husbands, these are the brilliant or … [Read more...] about Template/Format for newspaper apology by wife for filing false complaint or cases
How to safeguard from false cases by wife–Part 1
“How should I safeguard myself and my parents from false cases?” – is one of the most common question raised by men -- after having given a brief or not so brief write-up of their story of abuse/threats/false allegations/insults/humiliation at the hands of wife. In many of these instances, the husband and family are already facing multiple cases filed against them, so the question about how-to-safeguard seems to be after the fact. Maybe many people are scared and expecting the skies to fall down as the cases progress forward, so whatever may be the individual feelings, the question about how-to-safeguard still remains there, waiting to be asked, and probably any answer will not be able to satisfy them fully. The intention behind their question is not merely to find out about how to … [Read more...] about How to safeguard from false cases by wife–Part 1
How to handle jewellery bills shown by wife in 406, 498A, stridhan
As per the Dowry Prohibition (DP) Act, a list of gifts given to either bride or bridegroom by either side has to be maintained in a list of articles. So there are supposed to be 2 lists really. That’s the theory, but for all practical purposes no one at time of marriage is trying to follow the DP Act to it’s letter, so this law is followed mostly in breach and it’s a useless law for all practical purposes. Here are the various possibilities about the jewellery bills shown by wife/in-laws to CAW, court etc: 1. The bills are real, and all the jewellery corresponding to those bills was actually given to wife at time of marriage. In that case, all those will be her stridhan. Very rare though since most people filing 406/498A etc are doing it not to get back anything, … [Read more...] about How to handle jewellery bills shown by wife in 406, 498A, stridhan
How to handle situation when wife files RCR or wants to come back?
Question: Guys how to handle situation when wife files an RCR ? To rejoin or not to rejoin, that is the question Yesterday in family court I saw a ‘play’ being enacted, husband and his lawyer on one side, and on the other side was the wife talking by herself. The wife was saying that she wants to come back -- the word being used was ‘rejoin’. The judge was trying to impress upon husband the necessity to explore all the possibilities including rejoining. Rejoin sounds like a very nice word, but if someone’s coming back can lead to rejoining with misery and life of daily frustrations, then that’s not a rejoining we would like to go for, isn’t it? To give a background of above case which can be similar to many people’s situations, the husband was first to file divorce, then brought … [Read more...] about How to handle situation when wife files RCR or wants to come back?
