SURINDER GUPTA, J.(Oral) The petitioners have filed this petition under Section 482 Code of Criminal Procedure (for short, 'Cr.P.C.') seeking quashing of FIR No. 26 dated 24.01.2017 (Annexure P-1) alongwith all consequential proceedings arising therefrom, registered for offences punishable under Sections 323 and 324 read with Section 34 of Indian Penal Code (for short 'IPC') at Police Station City Narwana, District Jind, on the basis of the compromise dated 16.03.2017 (Annexure P-2).

Reply by way of affidavit of Deputy Superintendent of Police, Narwana filed by learned State counsel is taken on record. FIR was registered on the complaint of respondent no. 2-Rahul Kumar, wherein he stated that petitioner caused him injuries by giving fist and knife blows.

CRM-M-10350 of 2017 -2as Annexure P-2.

Learned counsel for respondent No.2-complainant has endorsed the submission of learned counsel for the petitioners and has no objection if the impugned FIR (Annexure P-1) is quashed.

Learned State counsel has also not disputed compromise dated 16.03.2017 (Annexure P-2).

Keeping in view the fact that the matter has since been amicably settled, I am of the considered opinion that it is a fit case in which the impugned FIR should be quashed. Keeping the case pending will not serve the ends of justice. The quashing of the FIR will provide the parties to this petition an opportunity to live in an amicable, peaceful and harmonious atmosphere which is not only in the interest of the parties but also for their families and ultimately the society at large. For the reasons as discussed above, the instant petition is allowed and the impugned FIR no. 26 dated 24.01.2017, Police Station City Narwana, District Jind (Annexure P-1) along with all consequential proceedings arising therefrom, qua petitioners, is quashed.
