Heard Sri Suneel Kumar, the learned counsel for the applicants, Sri Ashok Srivastava, the learned AGA for the State, as well Ms. Kausar Jahan, Advocate, the learned counsel for the opposite party no. 2, and perused the record. 2. The instant application under Section 482 CrPC/528 BNSS has been filed, seeking quashing of the entire criminal proceeding of Case No.76520 of 2024 (State Vs. Pranav Singh and others), arising out of Case Crime No.0201 of 2023, under Sections 498-A, 323 and 504 IPC read with Section 3/4 D.P. Act lodged at Police Station Jankipuram, District Lucknow, pending in the Court of learned Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate-VI, Lucknow, including the charge-sheet no.01 dated 10.02.2024 filed in the aforesaid case, on the ground that the parties have entered into a compromise. 3. Copy of the compromise has been brought on record by means of supplementary affidavit filed on behalf of the applicants on 04.07.2025 wherein it is stated that the parties have amicably resolved their disputes and have agreed to severe their relations by dissolution of marriage. The learned counsel for the opposite party no. 2 accepts the factum of compromise and supports the prayer of quashing of the impugned proceedings. 4. I have considered the submissions of learned counsel for the parties. 5. Considering the ratio laid down by the Supreme Court in the cases of B. S. Joshi and others versus State of Haryana and another :(2003) 4 SCC 675, Nikhil Merchant versus C.B.I. and another : (2008) 9 SCC 677, Manoj Sharma versus State and others : (2008) 16 SCC 1, Gian Singh versus Station of Punjab: (2010) 15 SCC 118 and Narinder Singh and others versus State of Punjab and another: (2014) 6 SCC 466, it would be appropriate in the facts and circumstances of the case to quash the criminal proceedings as continuance of the proceedings in pursuance of the criminal proceedings would be an exercise in futility. 6. 6. In view of the fact that the parties have settled their dispute outside the Court by way of compromise arrived at between the parties and law laid down by the Supreme Court of India, the present application is allowed and the entire criminal proceeding of Case No.76520 of 2024 (State Vs.
