Section 213 of BNSS : Section 213: Cognizance of offences by Court of Session.

Explanation using Example

Example 1:

Ravi is accused of a serious crime, such as murder, which falls under the jurisdiction of the Court of Session. The police complete their investigation and file a charge sheet. However, before the Court of Session can start the trial, the case must first be presented before a Magistrate. The Magistrate reviews the evidence and decides whether there is enough ground to commit the case to the Court of Session. Only after the Magistrate commits the case can the Court of Session take cognizance and begin the trial.

Example 2:

Priya is accused of a financial fraud involving a large sum of money. The police conduct an investigation and submit their findings to a Magistrate. The Magistrate examines the evidence and determines that the case is serious enough to be tried by the Court of Session. The Magistrate then commits the case to the Court of Session. The Court of Session can now take cognizance of the offence and proceed with the trial. If the Magistrate had not committed the case, the Court of Session would not have been able to take cognizance of it directly.
