Vinit Agarwal Alias Vineet Agarwal vs Union Of India Through The National ... on 18 January, 2022

In Bhushan Kumar and Another v. State (NCT of Delhi) and Another (Supra) the provision of Section 204 of the Code of Criminal Procedure has been considered which mandates for issuance of summons for calling upon any person before a Magistrate. Section 204 of the Code does not mandate the Magistrate to explicitly state the reasons for issuance of summons. It clearly states that if in the opinion of a Magistrate taking cognizance of an offence, there is sufficient ground for proceeding, then the summons may be issued. This section mandates the Magistrate to form an opinion as to whether there exists a sufficient ground for summons to be issued but it is nowhere mentioned in the section that the explicit narration of the same is mandatory, meaning thereby that it is not a prerequisite for deciding the validity of the summons issued.
