"Present file had been received from the court of Ms. Manika, Ld. ASJ (FTC), South-West in terms of order dated 13.02.2024 observing therein that her court has no jurisdiction to try this case as the FIR was registered at PS Delhi Cantt., which falls under New Delhi District.
I have perused the order dated 13.02.2024 passed by the Ld. ASJ (FTC), South-West.
It is pertinent to mention that vide order No.06/DHC/Gaz./G-3/VI.E.2(a) 2013 as well as order no.05/DHC/Gaz./G-l/VI.E.2(a) 2013 both dated 19.02.2013 of the Hon'ble High Court of Delhi, the cases pertaining to PS Delhi Cantt., were ordered to be transferred to New Delhi District and consequently, all the cases pertaining to PS Delhi Cantt., were transferred accordingly. However, due to oversight, the present case could not be transferred at that time and during the pendency of the matter, it was learnt by the trial court that it ought to be sent to New Delhi District and, therefore file has been forwarded to, this court for passing further orders.

Sh. Robin Kamra, Ld. CLADC for accused Gabbar Singh and Ahmad @ Ravi, present in the court also submits that matter is liable to be transferred to the New Delhi District.'
However, since a considerable period of time has elapsed since the year 2013, therefore, file cannot be now sent directly to the New Delhi District. Thus, in view of the fact that this court has no power to transfer cases to other district, reference is drawn and the matter may be accordingly sent to Hon'ble High Court of Delhi so that the reference is registered as Transfer Petition and is placed before the concerned Hon'ble Bench for necessary directions in the matter."
