2021 (6) TMI 375 - PUNJAB AND HARYANA HIGH COURTMaintainability of petition - seeking relief from Bail conditions - prayer for withdrawal of the conditions of heavy surety and bank guarantee/FDR - GST fraud - availing Input Tax Credit on the strength of fake invoices - HELD THAT:- It may be mentioned here that admittedly the petitioner had filed a revision petition before the Court of Sessions challenging such conditions. However, it was withdrawn abruptly. The petitioner had taken recourse to proper legal remedy but for the reason best known to him, did not opt to pursue the revision and withdrew it. As far as his approaching this Court under Section 482 Cr.P.C., it needs to be mentioned here that Section 482 Cr.P.C. which saves inherent powers of the High Court, is not a panacea for all the ills. The litigant should adopt a proper mechanism provided under the law for redressal of his grievances, instead of not doing so and rushing to this Court asking it to interfere in the matter, exercising the power under Section 482 Cr.P.C. If such practice is allowed, then the litigants would rush to this court moving petitions under Section 482 Cr.P.C., in a hope to get early decision, instead of availing of the remedy provided under the law - there are no reason to use the power under Section 482 Cr.P.C. since the conditions imposed cannot be terms to be onerous, arbitrary or stringent. There are no reason to use the power under Section 482 Cr.P.C. since the conditions imposed cannot be terms to be onerous, arbitrary or stringent.
