If you are not able to appear on the specific date you can apply for adjournment ab explaining the inability to appear in the court on given date the court may reschedule your appearance. And the time to appear on the court is written on the summon

Generally there is no specific timeline in this type of cases but even after repeated opportunities if the victim is not appearing usually on 3 dates you should file an application before the court for closing his evidence so that victim statement is not taken on record

if the summons are issued then you can take the assistance of the police official for its execution and in POCSO case the culprit should have been arrested by now. Anyways you can take the help of the police official for the execution of the summons
