1. Heard Mr. A.B. Maurya, learned counsel for the applicants, Mr. Karunanand, learned counsel for opposite party no. 2/complainant and Mr. O.P. Singh, learned AGA for the State. 2. The present application has been filed with prayer to quash further proceedings of Session Trial No.- 1267 of 2022 (State Vs. Veer Pal and others) arising out of Case Crime No.- 212 of 2019 under Sections 308, 323 I.P.C., P.S- Aliganj, District- Bareilly pending in the Court of learned Addiltional District and Sessions Judge, Court No.3, Bareilly on the basis of compromise. 3. It has been submitted by learned counsel for the applicants that the applicants and opposite party no.2 have entered into compromise and they have amicably settled all the disputes on the basis of compromise. The compromise has already been verified by learned court concerned and rejoinder affidavit has already been filed annexing the proceedings of verification of compromise. It was submitted that the complainant does not want to pursue the impugned proceedings. It was stated that in view of these facts and circumstances, no useful purpose would be served by keeping the impugned proceedings pending and thus, the impugned proceedings may be quashed on the basis of compromise arrived at between the parties. 4. Learned counsel for the opposite party no.2 has concurred with the arguments of learned counsel for the applicants and submitted that both the parties have amicably settled the dispute and compromised the matter and the complainant/ opposite party no.2 does not want to proceed with the case pending before the trial court and the impugned proceedings may be quashed. 5. Learned A.G.A. has no objection if parties compromise the matter. 6. I have considered the submissions and perused the record. 7. It is well settled that in appropriate cases criminal proceedings may be quashed on the basis of compromise. In the instant case, matter relates to civil dispute and it was submitted that both the parties have settled all the disputes and compromised the matter.
The dispute between the parties is civil in nature and it was submitted on behalf of both the parties that impugned proceedings may be quashed on the basis of compromise between the parties. If parties compromise the matter, it would not have adverse impact on society. There is nothing to indicate that parties have any criminal antecedents. The counter affidavit of opposite party no.2 is also on record, wherein it has been stated that the impugned proceedings may be quashed. Considering the law laid down in the case of State of Madhya Pradesh Vs. Laxmi Narayan and others, AIR 2019 SC 1296 and the facts of the matter, it would be in the interest of justice that the impugned proceedings be quashed. 8. In view of the aforesaid, the impugned charge- sheets/cognizance-summoning order and entire proceedings of Session Trial No.- 1267 of 2022 (State Vs. Veer Pal and others) arising out of Case Crime No.- 212 of 2019 under Sections 308, 323 I.P.C., P.S- Aliganj, District- Bareilly pending in the Court of learned Addiltional District and Sessions Judge, Court No.3, Bareilly, against applicants, namely Veer Pal, Raj Pal, Nem Chand and Ram Das are hereby quashed. 9. The application u/s 482 Cr.P.C. is allowed. Order Date :- 18.8.2025 Virendra Digitally signed by :- VIRENDRA KUMAR BHARTEEY High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
