    Summary The Additional Sessions Judge allowed the criminal revision application, setting aside the lower court's rejection of a complaint against Sarpanch Rekha Sachin Patil for alleged forgery in relation to an unheald Gramsabha. The court found that the lower magistrate failed to comply with mandatory procedural requirements under BNSS Sections 173(4), 175(3), and 175(4), including the requirement for a sworn affidavit and consideration of police officer submissions, rendering the rejection order illegal and contrary to Supreme Court precedent.
