Usually, when a crime occurs, an FIR is registered only at the police station having jurisdiction over the area where the incident took place. However, under ‘Zero FIR’, the victim can register their complaint at any police station, even if the crime did not occur within that police station’s jurisdiction. Later, this FIR is transferred to the concerned police station for investigation.
