Reshma ji,
Such questions are very difficult to answer. Not because the question is difficult but because it has innumerable answers.
I suggest you reframe your question to get a focused answer.
But a generic answer is: a criminal petition, as the name suggests is filed in a criminal case for some relief. While Indian Penal Code is a Code which deals with general offences and the punishments, Criminal Procedure Code lays down procedure to try a criminal case.
The statute which deal with criminal ofences is not IPC alone. The list is ever growing, the latest and widely known Act being Domestic Violence Act.
This may not be construed as a reply to your query but is only an introduction to your query. Be specific in your question.
