Uttar Pradesh Police provides an online facility to search and view FIR information. The official UP Police website currently displays a "Search and View your FIR" option and its CCTNS section separately lists VIEW FIR.
Official UP Police FIR Status Links
The UP Police Citizen Services page also links to the District Police CCTNS portal for services such as verifications, permissions, complaints and other public services.
How to Check UP Police FIR Status Online
Information You May Need to Search an FIR
The exact fields can change, but keep the following information ready where available:
- FIR number and year;
- district and police station;
- complainant or case-related information, if requested;
- registered mobile number or login credentials, where authentication is required; and
- verification code/captcha shown by the live portal.
Can You Download or Print a UP Police FIR?
The official service is intended to let users search and view FIR information. Depending on the current portal functionality, authentication requirements and the particular record, you may also be able to print or save the available FIR details from the browser.
Do not assume that every FIR will necessarily be publicly downloadable. Access can depend on the nature of the case, the information made available through the police system and the permissions of the live portal.
Current Legal Position Under the BNSS

Section 173 BNSS is titled "Information in cognizable cases." The provision deals with giving information relating to cognizable offences to the officer in charge of a police station and recognises electronic communication subject to its statutory requirements.
