Hello, I want to know whether police can file FIR against the government agencies such as state electricity board (for illegal disruption of electricity, etc.) , municipal corporation (not acting against encroachments, etc.) and BSNL (for erecting an illegal mobile phone tower on building without the permission of the residents) on the complaint of general public. I have filed complaints against these agencies in the past, but the police have failed to act arguing that these are government agencies and we cannot do anything against them. They actually advise me on almost every occasion that I should go to courts instead.
So I want to know if police stance is correct, or they can act against these entities if they want to or they are forbidden by law to act against such agencies.
Your valuable feedback will be of great help.
Thank you in advance.
