As per the settlement, petitioner no.1 and respondent no.2, have resolved their disputes and are now living together as a married couple along with their children, in peace and harmony.

Considering the above settlement between the parties and the chances of conviction of the petitioners being remote and bleak, there is no use continuing with proceedings of the present FIR as it would be a misuse of the process of the Court and an unnecessary burden on the State exchequer. Accordingly, the petition is allowed. Consequently, the FIR No.201/2019 under Sections 406/498A/34 IPC PS Rajouri Garden, and proceedings emanating therefrom are quashed.

6.

Parties shall abide by the terms of settlement. 7.

Accordingly, the petition is disposed of along with the pending application.
