If you send the summons to the known correct address by Registered post acknowledgement due with proper postage prepaid, even if the cover is returned as refused or not claimed it is sufficient a proof of service as per general clauses act.

Rightly advised by Mr. Anantha Krishna, if the Postal Cover containing Court Summons issued by the Magistrate of the Court and the same is Returned as Refused or Un-Claimed by the Respondent/Complainant then it will be considered as sufficient proof of service of summons on him.

Mr Jitendra,
Your question is not clear, whether you have prefered the revision against impunged order or final order? Secondly would you like to examine the complainant as witness on your behalf or to whom you want to examine? Plese let me know.
