has been filed only against the petitioners. I have enquired from the complainant whether the matter has been settled with the petitioner amicably without fear and pressure. She has informed that all the disputes have been settled without any fear or pressure and she has no objection to the quashing of the FIR.

(3) The petition is supported by the affidavits of the parties.

In the interest of justice and to put an end to the litigation, FIR No. 166/14 under Sections 354/509/34 IPC registered at Police Station Mandir Marg, New Delhi and all the proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

(5) The petitioners are, however, burdened with cost of `25,000/- to be deposited with Prime Minister National Relief Fund within two weeks. The Registry shall ensure the compliance of the order. (6) The petition and all pending application (s) stand disposed of accordingly.
