The petitioners, Parvez Alam and his family members, challenged the order of the learned JMFC, Tinsukia, which issued notice to them in a domestic violence case filed by Parvez Alam's wife, Shaista Naz. The court considered whether it could invoke its inherent powers to quash the proceedings under the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005. The court noted that while it has the power to quash such proceedings, it should exercise caution and only interfere in cases of gross illegality or injustice. The petitioners argued that the allegations against them were baseless and that the wife had filed the case as a counter-blast to an FIR lodged by them. The court considered the allegations and the provisions of the DV Act, including the right to appeal under Section 29.
