Mr. Dhargalkar states that the Appellant is present in the Court. Mr. Bhobe states that though intimation was given to the Respondent, she could not remain present today. Mr. Bhobe however states that he has instructions from the Respondent about compromise and he also has instructions to state that such compromise was entered into by the Respondent of her own free will and that she stands by the same. 3.

Accordingly, relying upon the compromise entered into by the parties, the decree of the First Appellate Court is hereby reversed and the decree of the trial Court is restored.

There shall be no order for costs.
