A broad approach to drafting of any Application / Petition /
Complaint may be undertaken in three chronological “Heads” –
1.
Reliefs prayed for /
claimed;
2.
Grounds for Reliefs
prayed for / claimed; (both factual and legal);
3.
Narration of facts
substantiating the said grounds.
Further, there may be narration of
such facts in the beginning of the draft, which would lay
foundation for “material facts of the case”.
Grounds for Reliefs prayed for / claimed implies (a) the
essence / conclusion of material facts; and (b) other legal provisions which
supports the reliefs prayed for / claimed.

_______________________ …..Complainant
Versus
________________________ …….Accused
MISCELLANEOUS APPLICATION U/S 297 OF
CrPC, 1973
MAY IT PLEASE YOUR HONOUR
The Accused beg
to state as under –
The Complainant
hereinabove has filed a Complaint u/s 200 of CrPC.
It is submitted
that section 297(2)of CrPC, 1973 expressly mandates that Affidavits shall state
separately, such facts as the deponent is able to prove from his own knowledge
and such facts as he has reasonable ground to believe to be true; and in the
latter case, the deponent shall clearly state the grounds of such belief.
The verification
clause in the Complaint is produced in verbatim below –
In the present
complaint, after perusal of the Verification clause in the Complaint, it can
safely be said that the above Complaint does not comply with aforesaid mandate
of section 297(2) of CrPC, 1973.
The Punjab &
Haryana High Court in a case (Harjeet Singh versus State of Haryana) before it,
observed to say that –
The verification of the affidavit is required to be
either on knowledge or on Information and it should show specifically which
part of the affidavit is verified on dependents knowledge and which part is
verified all deponents information. The whole of the affidavit in this case has
been verified on the basis of knowledge and information. Such affidavit cannot
be taken into consideration.
Therefore, it is
prayed that –
a)
The
Complaint be dismissed for want of proper verification; or
b)
The
Complainant be directed to cure this defect in his Complaint.
FOR THIS ACT OF
KINDNESS THE APPLICANT AS IN DUTY BOUND SHALL EVER PRAY.
