% 12.03.2019 Notice.

Learned APP accepts notice for respondent no. 1.

Respondent no.2 Ms. Soniya Jaiswal is present in Court along with her counsel and accepts notice. She has been identified by SI Amit Kumar of police station Kalyan Puri.

Petitioner no.1 (husband) and respondent no. 2 (wife) state that they have started living together after resolving their differences; therefore, FIR No. 250/2015 under Sections 498-A/406/34 IPC registered at Police Station Kalyan Puri on the complaint of respondent no. 2 may be quashed. Respondent no. 2 submits that she has settled the matter with petitioner no. 1

of her own free will and without any undue force, pressure or coercion. Respondent no. 2 further submits that presently she has no grievance against the petitioners and has no objection in case aforesaid FIR and consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed against the petitioner no.1 and his relatives, that is, petitioner nos. 2 to 4. Affidavit of respondent no. 2 to this effect is on record.

Keeping in mind that husband and wife have started living together after resolving their differences, in my view, no fruitful purpose would be served to keep the criminal proceedings pending. Accordingly, in the interest of justice, aforesaid FIR and consequent proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

Petition is disposed of in the above terms. Miscellaneous applications are disposed of as infructuous. Dasti.
