MoEA notification that even during the pendency of criminal case, passport could be issued/renewed; Allahabad High Court reiterates
The reports of non-cognizable cases in which the Magistrate had not even ordered for investigation were being considered for rejection of passport, thus, the Allahabad High Court directed the DG of Police to instruct his officers to give a report regarding the pendency of reports in non-cognizable cases after proper application of mind.
