    Case Summary: The Gauhati High Court dismissed the writ petition filed by Shri Parash Kumar Bhattacharjee seeking directions to initiate criminal proceedings against a former Executive Engineer (Respondent No. 10) under the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023, for alleged irregularities in tender processes and misuse of delegated financial powers. Justice Manish Choudhury held that the petitioner's approach was misconceived as he failed to exhaust statutory remedies available under the BNSS (such as filing a police complaint) before directly invoking the Court's writ jurisdiction, contrary to settled legal principles requiring exhaustion of statutory remedies before approaching constitutional courts. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
