"acjm court found my uncle guilty under crpc 340 and lodged case in cjm under ipc for giving fake affidavit." This is a misconception. It is for the CJM to hold trial decide the guilt. Any how, acjm court would have served a notice to show cause. What is the reply furnished and/or stand taken?

Under Section 199, whoever, in any declaration made or subscribed by him, which declaration any court of justice is authorised to receive as evidence of any fact, makes any statement which is false, and which he either knows or believes to be false, shall be punished in the same manner as if he gave false evidence.

Under Section 340 of the Criminal Procedure Code, the Complainant must be the Court, so it was.
But the Court erred.
The Affidavit was executed outside the Court and was then filed in the Court.
Such an Affidavit is not covered by Section 195 of the Criminal Procedure Code.
Section 195 says, " ....... document produced in the Couert ...... " but not " document going to be produced".
In other words, offence was committed in regard to a document that was going to be produced in the Court cannot be taken cognizance of by the Court under Section 340 but in regard to a document already produced in the Court.
Here the offence was committed in regard to a document which was going to be produced in the Court.
So the Court has no jurisdiction to prosecute the uncle of the Questioner because the offence was not committed when the document was under the custody of the Court.

It is not a question of our belief or thinking. The accused need to defend the matter on merits. It is seldom that that a Court charges anyone for offences under Chapter XI (Of False Evidence and Offence Against Public Jusstice) of the IPC and resorts to process and procedure under Section 340 of CrPC and there is hardly any case of anyone being punished.
This state of affairs is not because the offences are uncommon, but it is so common! Another reason could be that the Judicial Officer, who makes the complaint, is required to appears as witness and lead evidence.
As such, there could be some extraordinary circumstances that the ACJM has sent the complaint for trial before the CJM.
It is impossble to make any definite suggestion as you are posting picemeal, that to, in a disjointed fashion.

1st we will know what is section 199 as i mentioned in the earlier statement
False statement made in declaration which is by law receivable as evidence.—Whoever, in any declaration made or subscribed by him, which declaration any Court of Justice, or any public servant or other person, is bound or authorised by law to receive as evidence of any fact, makes any statement which is false, and which he either knows or believes to be false or does not believe to be true, touching any point material to the object for which the declaration is made or used As per the statement where Making any statement which is false and which he either knows or believes to be false or does not believe to be true
So in your uncle's case he did not get any information from police about his case so he believed that the police did not applie sec 170 So for him the statement mad in the court is true For applications of sec 199 of ipc the statement must not only be false but also he should know or believe that the statement is false
