The threshold of satisfaction here is notably higher than that required during charge framing under Section 228 CrPC.<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"1433\" data-end=\"1436\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"1438\" data-end=\"1480\">\ud83e\uddd1\u200d\u2696\ufe0f Key Takeaways from the Judgment:<\/h3>\n<ul data-start=\"1482\" data-end=\"2322\">\n<li data-start=\"1482\" data-end=\"1706\">\n<p data-start=\"1484\" data-end=\"1706\"><strong data-start=\"1484\" data-end=\"1513\">No Right of Prior Hearing<\/strong>: The Court categorically held that there is no statutory or constitutional requirement to give the person summoned under Section 319 an opportunity of being heard before issuance of summons.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1707\" data-end=\"1991\">\n<p data-start=\"1709\" data-end=\"1991\"><strong data-start=\"1709\" data-end=\"1734\">No Power to Discharge<\/strong>: Once added, such a person <strong data-start=\"1762\" data-end=\"1806\">cannot file an application for discharge<\/strong> before the trial court.

The provision is a <em data-start=\"2831\" data-end=\"2865\">weapon in the hands of the court<\/em> to ensure no guilty person escapes the clutches of the law, even if initially omitted from the charge sheet.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2976\" data-end=\"3159\">The CrPC does <strong data-start=\"2990\" data-end=\"3031\">not mandate any pre-summoning hearing<\/strong>, and such a requirement would only serve to delay proceedings and weaken the court\u2019s ability to administer justice effectively.<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"3161\" data-end=\"3164\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"3166\" data-end=\"3218\">\ud83d\udee1\ufe0f What About Remedies for the Summoned Person?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"3220\" data-end=\"3385\">It is essential to clarify that being summoned under Section 319 CrPC does <strong data-start=\"3295\" data-end=\"3302\">not<\/strong> leave the individual without recourse. The following remedies are still available:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"3387\" data-end=\"3736\">\n<li data-start=\"3387\" data-end=\"3519\">\n<p data-start=\"3389\" data-end=\"3519\"><strong data-start=\"3389\" data-end=\"3424\">Challenging the summoning order<\/strong> under Article 227 of the Constitution before the High Court, or under Section 482 CrPC\/528 BNSS.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr data-start=\"3738\" data-end=\"3741\" \/>\n<h3 data-start=\"3743\" data-end=\"3760\">\ud83d\udd1a Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"3762\" data-end=\"4055\">The recent judgment of the Supreme Court provides much-needed clarity on the scope and procedure under Section 319 CrPC.
