Hon'ble Ramesh Sinha,J. Hon'ble Vivek Varma,J.
Heard Sri Ajay Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner, Sri G.P. Singh, learned A.G.A. for the State and perused the impugned F.I.R. as well as material brought on record.
This petition has been filed by the petitioner with a prayer to quash the F.I.R. dated 25.2.2019registered as case crime no. 192 of 2019 under sections 272, 273 I.P.C. and Section 60 of Uttar Pradesh Utpad-Shulk/Abkari Adhiniyam, police station Tajganj, District Agra.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is innocent and the present FIR has been lodged with a malafide intention for the purposes of harassment, hence the same is liable to be quashed.
Learned AGA opposed the prayer for quashing of the FIR which discloses cognizable offence.
After having examined the submissions advanced by learned counsel for the parties and perused the impugned FIR, we are of the opinion that the impugned FIR discloses cognizable offence against the petitioner, hence, no interference is called for by this Court in its extraordinary power under Article 226 of the Constitution of India for quashing of the FIR or for grant of any interim relief to the petitioner.
The petition lacks merit and is, accordingly, dismissed.
