The matter has been listed on December 11, 2023 for further hearing.The petitioner challenged the order of May 12, 2023, whereby the charges have been framedagainst the present petition under Section 341 read with Section 34 Indian Penal Code (IPC) and 506(2) IPC and 3(1)r and 3(1)s of the SC-ST Act.Senior advocate R. Balasubarmanium, counsel for the petitioner submitted that the order of charge is directly in the teeth of the latest judgment ofthe Supreme Court, Ramesh Chandra Vaishya Vs. State of Utter Pradesh.An FIR under sections of the SC-ST Act was registered against Kadiyan and other persons in police Station Tilak Marg last year.Kadiyan has moved a petition through advocate Vaibhav Trivedi challenging the FIR, Charge sheet and proceedings emanating out of the FIR.He has also challenged the Charges framed against him in the matter.
