If the Station House Officer refuses to register an FIR, the informant has multiple remedies: (1) send the complaint in writing to the Superintendent of Police under S.154(3), (2) approach the Magistrate under S.156(3) to direct investigation, (3) file a private complaint under S.200. The most effective remedy is approaching the Magistrate under S.156(3).
