Learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that the petitioner
No.1 Anil got married with the respondent No.2 Smt. Kanchan Lata on 30.05.2010 as per Hindu rites and customs. Counsel further submits that after the marriage, a misunderstanding had arisen between the parties, which resulted into registration of the aforesaid FIR against the petitioners. Counsel further submits that after the registration of the FIR, the near relatives and the friends intervened and the matter has been amicably settled between the parties and the same has been reduced into writing vide settlement deed dated 23.04.2017 and in terms of the said settlement, the respondent No.2 has joined her matrimonial home and now she is living together with her husband happily and peacefully. Counsel further submits that since the matter has been amicably settled between the parties and the respondent No.
2 has joined her matrimonial home and living together with her husband happily and nothing further remains to be adjudicated between the parties, however, the present FIR is coming as hurdle in the peaceful life of the parties, and prays that the FIR and all proceedings arising therefrom may be quashed.
The respondent No.2/complainant Smt. Kanchan Lata is present in Court in person and has been identified by the Investigating Officer SI Jitender Kumar, P.S.

The respondent No.2 present in person admits the factum of amicable settlement with the petitioners and submits that in terms of the said settlement she is now living together with her husband at her matrimonial home happily and peacefully and she is left with no grievance against the petitioners, as her husband Anil (petitioner No.1) is keeping her well and looking after her well till date and further submits that she has no objection if the FIR in question is quashed.
Looking into the aforesaid facts and circumstances, since the matter has been amicably settled between the parties and the respondent No.2 has joined her matrimonial home and living together with her husband happily and nothing further remains to be adjudicated between the parties, to have peace in the life of the parties and to meet the ends of justice, I deem it appropriate to quash the FIR and all subsequent proceedings arising from the same.
