Mandamus is one of the writ issued by the high court or supreme court,which is in the form of a command to state to
compel them to perform their public duty .A writ of mandamus can be filled under Article 226 or article 32 of the
constitution of India, directing the police officials to perform their duty an register an FIR
Haryana vs .bhajan lal : The supreme court of India, in this case opined that credibility and reliability of the
information is no ground for the refusal to register an FIR . It is manifestly clear that if any information disclosing a
cognizable offence is laid down before an officer –in-charge of a police station satisfying the requirement of section
154(1)of the code, the said police officer has no other option expect to enter the substance thereof in the prescribe form,
that is to say to register a case on the basis of such information.
