Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC-LKO:42160 Court No. - 15 Case :- APPLICATION U/S 482 No. - 5829 of 2025 Applicant :- Ramu And 2 Others Opposite Party :- State Of U.P. Thru. Secy. Home U.P. Lko. And Another Counsel for Applicant :- Mohd.Mateen Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Subhash Vidyarthi,J. 1. Heard Sri Mohd. Mateen, the learned counsel for the applicants, Sri Abhay Kumar Singh, the learned A.G.A. for the State and Sri Shamsher Yadav Jagrana, the learned counsel for opposite party No.2 and perused the record. Short counter affidavit filed by the learned counsel for opposite party No.2 is taken on record. 2. By means of the instant application filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C., the applicants have sought quashing of the entire proceedings of Criminal Case No.31859 of 2023 arising out of the Case Crime No.323, 504, 506 IPC relating to Police Station- Mohanlalganj, Lucknow. 3. Learned counsels for the parties submit that they have settled their dispute amicably outside the Court and they have arrived at the compromise. Compromise entered into between the parties have been placed on record as Annexure-4 to the petition. The parties have confirmed the terms of the compromise. 4. Opposite party No.2 does not have any objection, if the impugned proceedings are quashed against the applicants. 5. I have considered the submissions of learned counsel for the parties. 6. Considering the fact that the dispute between the parties is personal in nature and 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 criminal proceedings would be an exercise in futility. 7. 7. 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 proceedings of Criminal Case No.31859 of 2023 arising out of the Case Crime No.323, 504, 506 IPC relating to Police Station- Mohanlalganj, Lucknow are quashed. .
