In respect of such a grievance, the petitioner has an effective, alternative, statutory remedy by way of preferring a complaint before the Jurisdictional Magistrate of the First Class under the provisions of the Code. On the aforesaid analysis, the writ petition is dismissed with liberty to the petitioner to pursue the appropriate statutory remedies.
