If an FIR under Section 498(a) and the Dowry Act has been pending for two years without charges, you may be able to quash it. Presenting substantial evidence to prove your case to the High Court, potentially under Section 482 of the CrPC with a local advocate, is a common route. The FIR cannot be quashed solely based on the delay; you must demonstrate that no valid case is made out against you and that you've been falsely accused. If the FIR doesn't constitute a cognisable offence, police investigation requires a magistrate's order.
