Case Summary: Rita Kumari v. Bhagwan Das (Crl.A. No. 896-897/2001) The Supreme Court allowed Rita Kumari's appeal against the High Court's order quashing criminal charges under sections 494 and 498-A IPC. The Court found that the High Court exceeded its jurisdiction under section 482 CrPC by quashing the charges, holding that such power should be exercised sparingly and only when proceedings constitute an abuse of process. The Court set aside the High Court's order and directed the Magistrate to proceed with the criminal proceedings in accordance with law.
