7. At the outset, in response to the plea taken by the applicant it is stated by the learned APP that there is no bar for the Judicial Magistrate to consider the cancellation of Non-Bailable Warrant under Section 72(2) BNSS. Therefore, in view of this fact, which is put forth by the learned counsel for the Applicant as well. The petition, it is submitted can be disposed of with the observation that the applicant shall move the learned Magistrate with the relevant application in this context. In this regard, it is pertinent to note that Section 72(2) of the BNSS, 2023 expressly provides that a warrant shall remain in force until it is cancelled by the Court “which issued it” or until it is executed. In view of the submissions made by the learned APP that the learned Magistrate is competent to consider an application seeking cancellation of Non-Bailable Warrant („NBWs‟). This Court considers it appropriate to relegate the petitioner to avail the remedy available before the learned Magistrate.
8. The petition together with pending application(s), if any, stands disposed of.
