In my case my previous so called wife, gave complaint in three different police stations but none filed fir or CSR stating lack of truthful facts. Her lawyer is telling me that , they are going to file 498A in court. Is it possible to file 498A directly on court with fir. Is csr or complaint via registered post with acknowledgement sufficient for approaching court directly ?

She can directly handle the case under Section 498a without a police complaint.
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Advocate) 16 May 2025
if the police is not entertaining the criminal complaint she can very well file a private criminal complaint before the concerned judicial magistrate court UNDER Section 223 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) 2023.
This section mandates that the magistrate examine the complainant and witnesses under oath to determine the validity of the complaint.
After this examination, the magistrate can choose to issue a process, dismiss the complaint, or postpone the process for further inquiry.
