% 17.03.2017 The petitioner No.1 is present in person. However, his counsel is not present on account of demise in his family.

In terms of the last order, the Fixed Deposit of Rs. 3 Lakhs has been modified. Under the modified arrangement, the Fixed Deposit Receipt for Rs.3 Lakhs shall mature in the year 2027. However, the interest accruing on the said FDR shall be credited to the account of respondent No.2/ guardian of the minor child, maintained with the same bank, i.e. Andhra Bank, Malviya Nagar Branch, New Delhi. The respondent No.2 shall utilise the interest accrued on the said amount on quarterly basis into her account for the maintenance of the minor child.

The parties have also executed a Talaqnama. A photocopy whereof has been tendered in Court by the petitioner and taken on record. It has also been provided to respondent No.2, who is present in Court. She states that the said Talaqnama has been executed on 16.03.2017. An amount of Rs.20,000/- in cash towards Mehr has been tendered to respondent No.2 in Court today and accepted by her. Respondent No.2, therefore, joins the prayer made by the petitioners for quashing of the FIR in question since she has received the entire settlement amount as agreed between the parties. All the disputes and claims stand settled. Accordingly, no useful purpose would be served in proceeding further with the FIR in question and the proceedings emanating therefrom. The same are hereby quashed.
