Learned counsel for petitioner on 23.07.2020 submitted that he is ready to settle the dispute with the complainant and the complainant agreed to settle the present petition on receipt of Rs.23 lacs lumpsum amount. 3.

Learned counsel for complainant on instruction submits that if the petitioner is ready to pay the said amount, he is ready to get quashed the FIR against the petitioner. It is agreed between the parties before this Court that petitioner shall pay an amount of Rs.5 lacs on or before 30.11.2020 in favour of respondent no.2/complainant through cheque. Thereafter, he shall continue to pay an amount of Rs.1 lac on the last date of every calendar month from BAIL APPLN. 1856/2020

December, 2020 continuously for 18 months. Petitioner is directed to issue 18 cheques for rupees one lac each in favour of respondent no.2 within one week.
