6.
Since the parties have arrived at a settlement and no disputes are pending, I am convinced that quashing of such proceedings on account of compromise would bring peace and would secure ends of justice. The Court does not see any fruitful purpose if criminal proceedings are permitted to be prosecuted any further.
7.
In this view of the matter, there is no reason to continue the proceedings.
8.
In view of the settlement arrived at between the parties, the FIR No.751/2018 dated 26.12.2018 registered at PS Rajouri Garden under Sections 498A/406/34 of IPC and all consequential proceedings emanating therefrom are hereby quashed.
9.
The petition is disposed of in the aforesaid terms.
