To answer your questions, they cannot file a caveat to know of any such case being filed. However, the court may give notice to the effected party and may also direct to Police officials to ask the other party to join investigation and to also appear if need be. The Opposite party can surely fight against an order of registration of FIR in revision before the Sessions Court. Please get in touch for filing a petition for registration of an FIR.

Dear Sir, you can file a complaint case u/s 156(3) of Cr. P. C in a Magistrate Court and can get a direction for police to lodge FIR. After getting instructions from the Court, the police will lodge the FIR and investigate in your matter.

If concerned police officials r not taking any action on ur complaint then u have the option to file a petition under Sec 156(3) in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate n the court will direct the concerned police station to make an enquiry in the case n register the FIR. The best part of this legal procedure is that the opposite party does not get a chance to raise their objections before the court

When you approach the Magistrate under Section 156 (3) of the CrPC for lodging the FIR, the Magistrate shall take the cognizance of the matter and can direct the police authorities to register the FIR and investigate the matter.

1.Section 200 to 203 of the Code of Criminal Procedure lays down the procedure regulating complaints made by private persons. If a Magistrate takes cognizance of an offence on a complaint, he must first of all examine the complainant and witnesses, if any, on oath, and must then reduce the substance of such examination into writing. This must also be signed by the complainant, the witnesses, and also by the Magistrate.
2. no caveat can be filed in criminal cases
