The respondent no.2, present in Court, also accepts notice and affirms that she has settled all her disputes with the petitioners and that she is living with the petitioners at her matrimonial home. She further states that in view of her having no grievances left against the petitioners, she does not wish to pursue the proceedings initiated by her against the petitioners, and has already withdrawn all other pending litigations against the petitioners.

Vs. Babita Raguvanshi & Anr. (2013) 4 SCC 58, Gian Singh vs. State of Punjab & Anr. (2012) 10 SCC 303, this Court is of the opinion that continuation of the aforesaid FIR No.95/2024 dated 18.03.2024 will be an exercise in futility.
