Irregular Proceedings

The Indian criminal law, which deals with matters relating to violation of prohibited social
conduct, strives to deliver justice by punishing the guilty and providing relief to the
aggrieved parties.
The purpose of criminal law is to defend and protect the interests of society among other
things. The criminal law is applied by criminal courts through statutes, decisions, and other
means, with the expectation that the courts will achieve a final resolution without any
irregularities.

be curable irregularity or incurable irregularity.

The provisions related to irregular proceedings are contained in Chapter XXXV CrPC, 1973
