2. Heard Mr. Pulla Rao Yellanki, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr.D.Pradeep, learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home appearing for respondent Nos.1 to 7.

3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that, as the respondent police authorities (respondent Nos. 2 to 5) failed to take any action on the petitioner’s representation dated 03.12.2018, the present writ petition has been filed seeking appropriate directions. It is further contended that the averments in the said representation pertain to the alleged high-handed acts of the police of Veeravalli Police Station, Krishna District, who are said to have entered the petitioner’s house, conducted a search, and taken away certain documents and money. It is therefore urged that the concerned police authorities ought to have registered a crime and taken appropriate action against those responsible. Accordingly, the learned counsel prays for passing of suitable orders.

4. Learned Assistant Government Pleader for Home submits that the contentions raised by the petitioner have already been examined by the concerned police authorities. He submits that, as per the information available, the police personnel from Veeravalli, Andhra Pradesh, had visited the jurisdictional limits of Paloncha Police Station to secure the presence of the petitioner’s husband, who was an accused in Crime Nos. 225 and 226 of 2018, for purposes of judicial proceedings. Upon enquiry, it was found that the report lodged by the petitioner was a counterblast to the lawful action of the Veeravalli Police and contained false and baseless allegations. Therefore, no further action was warranted. The learned Assistant Government Pleader further contends that, if the petitioner was aggrieved by the alleged non-registration of the crime, the petitioner ought to have availed the statutory remedies available under the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (“Cr.P.C.”), as settled by the Hon’ble Supreme Court. Without exhausting such remedies, a writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India seeking a direction to register a crime is not maintainable. Accordingly, he prays for dismissal of the petition.

5. I have perused the material available on record.

6. The grievance of the petitioner is that her representation dated 03.12.2018 was not acted upon by the police authorities and that no crime was registered. However, the explanation offered by the respondent police authorities clearly establishes that the representation was duly considered, and upon enquiry, the allegations were found to be false, leading to the decision not to take further action. This demonstrates that the police authorities have, in fact, exercised their jurisdictional discretion in considering and disposing of the petition
