CW 3327/10 //1// In the High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan Jaipur Bench ** Civil Writ Petition No.3327/2010 Laxman Singh Versus State & Ors Date of Order ::: 15/03/10 Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ajay Rastogi Mr. Saransh Saini, for petitioner FIR-8/2000 dt.17/01/2000 was registered against petitioner while serving Lower Division Clerk in Department of Forest, for offences U/Ss 13(1)(c), (d) & 13(2) of Prevention of Corruption Act and U/Ss 409, 467, 468, 471, 477A & 120-B, IPC. After investigation being made by investigating officer, it appears that matter was sent to the competent authority for sanction of prosecution U/s 197 CrPC & 19 of PC Act, which was accorded and communicated to investigating officer vide order dt.21/01/2010. Counsel submits that relevantmaterial has not been taken note of; as such order of sanction for prosecution is without due application of mind and that apart, the authority competent has granted sanction for prosecution without the procedure prescribed by law being followed; and in such circumstances, the order granting sanction for prosecution is bad in law and deserves to be set aside. In support, Counsel placed reliance upon decision of Apex Court in State of Karanataka Vs. Ameerjan (2007(11) SCC 273). CW 3327/10 //2// In the opinion of this Court, as regards what has been urged by Counsel, suffice it to say that once sanction for prosecution has been accorded by the competent authority, obviously the petitioner would have an opportunity to raise objection with regard to sanction for prosecution at the appropriate stage while framing of charge against him during trial; and it would not appropriate for this Court to interfere in the order granting sanction for prosecution impugned at this stage, particularly when remedy is available to raise objection under law before competent court of jurisdiction at the stage of framing of the charges against him. In view whereof, the judgment relied upon by Counsel is of no assistance in the facts of instant case. Consequently, writ petition fails and is hereby dismissed. (Ajay Rastogi), J.
