J&K HC: Magistrate Can Revoke Orders or Drop Proceedings if No Case is Made Out - (14 Jul 2025)

ADMINISTRATIVE

J&K HC has observed that since the proceedings under Section 12 of DV Act 2005 are not, in strict sense, criminal in nature, a Magistrate, after obtaining response from the other side, is well within his jurisdiction to revoke his order of issuing summons to them or he can even drop the proceedings.
