The accused will get chance to give his evidence u/s313 cr.p.c. At that time he can produce all of his evidences as per his likes . But not before that .

Hon'ble Mr. Justice R. Basant
H.D.F.C. v. Anilesh
Crl. M.C. Nos.2683 and 2697 of 2007
Decided on 29th October, 2007
Negotiable Instruments Act 1881, Ss.138 & 145 -- Criminal P.C. 1973, Ss. 2(d) & 200 -- It is not necessary to insist on personal appearance of complainant invariably in all cases when complaint is presented.
A complaint can either be oral or in writing. Cognizance can be taken by a criminal court in one of the 3 modes permitted under S.190 Cr.P.C. It can be on receiving a complaint of facts; it can be upon a police report of such facts or it can be upon information received from any person other than a police officer or upon knowledge of the Magistrate. What is significant according to me is that S.190 Cr.P.C does not anywhere expressly or by necessary implication suggest or insist that such a complaint can be presented only personally by a complainant by appearing in court. The requirement of recording sworn statement of the complainant under S.200 Cr.P.C is there in a complaint under S.138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act also. But S.145 of the Negotiable Instruments Act clearly shows that evidence of a complainant can be given on affidavit. Presence of the complainant becomes not necessary for recording the sworn statement under S.200 Cr.P.C. Of course, if the case falls under the just exceptions under S.145 Negotiable Instruments Act, the Magistrate undoubtedly has jurisdictional competence to insist on personal appearance of the complainant. But otherwise it does not appear to me to be necessary to insist on personal appearance of the complainant invariably in all cases when complaint is presented. In a prosecution under S.138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, if the case comes within the just exception under S.145 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, the learned Magistrate can direct the complainant to appear on a later date. But at any rate, the insistence that the complainant must appear in person to present the complaint invariably in all cases does not appear to be justified. (Paras.3, 4, 6, 7 & 9)

I have filed number of 138 cases with affidavit prior to this ruling. When the provision is clear and unambigious, SC or HC need not intrepret it . I fail to understand why Magistrates courts in other parts of India are reluctant to accept affidavits!!!!!!
