Hon'ble Apex Court in catena of decisions has held that inherent power can be used to do real and substantial justice as has been held in Gian Singh Vs State of Punjab, 2012 AIR SCW 5333, B.S. Joshi and others Vs State of Haryana, (2003) 3 SCC 675 and Narinder Singh Vs State of Punjab, (2014) 6 SCC 466. Hence, inherent power can be exercised to speed up the process of ending the criminal proceedings where the settlement is arrived at between the parties. 9. In view of the aforesaid facts and considering that the parties do not wish to pursue the case any further, the dispute is essentially of a private nature and has no wider social impact. Since it has been mutually settled between the parties by way of a compromise, no useful purpose would be served by proceeding with the matter further. 10. For the discussions made above, the present application is allowed and the entire proceeding of Criminal Case No. 478 of 2013 (State Vs. Ram Babu Gupta and Others) arising out of Case Crime No.1049 of 2012, under Sections 323, 427, 504 and 506 I.P.C., and Section 3(1)(X) of SC/ST Act, Police Station- Dakore, District- Jalaun, are hereby quashed.
