Police not filing charge sheet

[Dr. Ashok Dhamija]

You can meet and request the senior police officers for expediting the investigation, telling them how the local police station officers were siding with the accused persons. Usually, the senior police officers take stock of all long pending cases and direct the investigating officers to complete investigation within limited time-frames.

Second option is, of course, to file a petition before the high court under Section 482 of the Criminal Procedure Code seeking direction to complete the investigation expeditiously or transfer the case to some other agency (or officer) if it is a serious case.
