Law and context
BNSS section 482 addresses directions by the High Court or Court of Session and permits conditions. The provision includes exclusions, and special enactments can add restrictions. A police notice or dispute alone does not establish entitlement.
Practical next step
Preserve the FIR if available, notice, factual chronology and earlier applications. Explain the basis of apprehension honestly and identify the proper court through counsel.
