Petition u/a 226 against fir.

Kavindra (Querist) 16 November 2015 This query is : Resolved
This is the case of Mr Anil Kumar, an acquaintance of mine, who cannot operate computer and ask a query. The accused have filed a writ petition u/a 226 against an FIR filed by Anil in the HC which has issued him a notice. Since he cannot afford to hire a lawyer and is too ill to be present himself, can he present his plea and submit the response to the charges made under it sending it by post seeking exemption?

There is no time to Apply for legal aid as notice received very late. Yes, is it compulsory to file response on affidavit?
