JMIC, Jagadhari in case CIS No. NIA Act No. 2242/2018 under Section 138 of Negotiable Instruments Act titled as Jasbir Singh Vs Rinku Saini pending in the court of ld. JMIC, Jagadhari whereby the petitioner has been declared as proclaimed person.
2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was declared a proclaimed person vide order dated 24.11.2025 on account of his non-appearance before the learned trial Court. He further submits that the petitioner's previous counsel had informed him that the complaint had been dismissed in default and, therefore, there was no necessity for him to appear before the Court. Believing the said statement of his previous counsel to be correct, the petitioner did not appear before the learned trial Court, which ultimately resulted in him being declared a proclaimed person. Learned counsel further submits that the petitioner is now ready and willing to surrender before the learned trial Court and undertake to appear on each and every date of hearing RENU RAWAT 2026.07.17 17.10 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document Chandigarh and participate in the trial proceedings regularly.

5. I have heard the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner and gone through the case file.
6. In view of the limited prayer made by the learned counsel for the petitioner, this Court deems it appropriate to decide this case without issuing notice to the respondent. This Court Court does not find any legitimate ground to interfere in the impugned order dated 24.11.2025 passed by ld. JMIC, Jagadhari. However, in case the petitioner surrenders before the trial Court within 07 days from today at 10:00 A.M and move an application for grant of regular bail, on his doing so, the trial Court shall consider and decide the same on the same day.
