    Territorial divisions under the code

    The entire territory of India consists of states and Section 7 of the Code states
    that “the basic territorial divisions of the State are the districts and the Sessions
    Divisions”. Considering the special needs of big cities like Bombay, Calcutta,
    Madras, etc. the Code has recognised them as metropolitan areas and each
    such area shall be considered as a separate sessions division and district.
    According to this territorial demarcation, the criminal courts of India include the
    Supreme Court of India, High Courts, Court of Session in every Session Division
    and Courts of Judicial Magistrates in every district.

    Classes of criminal courts


    Section 6 of the Cr.P.C provides for the classes of criminal courts in every State
    apart from the High Courts and the Supreme Court, namely –

    1.  Court of Session

    2. Judicial Magistrates of the first class and, Metropolitan  Magistrates in


    any metropolitan areas

    3.  Judicial Magistrates of the second class; and

    4.  Executive Magistrates

    Hierarchy of Criminal Courts


    The hierarchy of the Criminal Courts in India can be understood through the
    following chart:

    court of India was established under Article 124 of the Constitution of India.
