issues amicably. Parties now wish to live in peace and harmony going forward.

6.

Ms. Kiran Bairwa, learned APP confirms that the State has no objection to the subject FIR being quashed.

7.

In the circumstances, in line with the law laid down by the Supreme Court in Gian Singh vs. State of Punjab & Anr. reported as (2012) 10 SCC 303 as also in Narinder Singh & Ors. vs. State of Punjab & Anr. reported as (2014) 6 SCC 466, this court sees no reason why the subject FIR and all proceedings emanating therefrom should not be quashed. This court is of the view that in light of the settlement between the contesting parties, continuing with the subject FIR and all subsequent proceedings would be an exercise in futility and would not be conducive to peace and harmony between the parties. 8.

While allowing the petition however, this court considers it appropriate, that by way of atonement, the petitioner shall pay costs of Rs. 25,000/- to the 'Very Special Arts India', Plot No. 3 Institutional Area, Nelson Mandela Marg, Vasant Kunj, New Delhi, within 04 weeks.

9.

Subject to the aforesaid condition, case FIR No. 356/2020 dated 10.08.2020 registered under sections 365/511/354/354-D/506/509 of the IPC at P.S.: Kalkaji, South-East, Delhi is quashed. All proceedings arising therefrom also stand closed.

10.

Petitioner is directed to place on record the proof of payment of costs. 11.

The Registry is directed to re-list the matter if costs are not paid as directed.
