Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC-LKO:42982 Court No. - 15 Case :- APPLICATION U/S 482 No. - 6023 of 2025 Applicant :- Vinod Yadav And 3 Others Opposite Party :- State Of U.P. Thru. Prin. Secy. Deptt. Of Home Lko. And Another Counsel for Applicant :- Pankaj Singh Chauhan Counsel for Opposite Party :- G.A. Hon'ble Subhash Vidyarthi,J. 1. Heard Sri Pankaj Singh Chauhan, the learned counsel for the applicants, Sri Amit Dwivedi, the learned A.G.A. for the State and Sri Jai Pratap Singh, Advocate who has put in appearance on behalf of opposite party no.2 and files his vakalatnama, which is taken on 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./Section 528 B.N.S.S., the applicants have sought quashing of the entire proceedings of Criminal Case No.26134 of 2021: State Vs. Vinod Yadav and others, arising out of Case Crime No.1173 of 2018, under Sections 147, 323, 504, 506 I.P.C. Police Station P.G.I. District Lucknow, pending in the Court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Lucknow on the ground that the parties have arrived at a compromise on dated 30.06.2025. 3. Learned counsel for the parties submit that the parties have settled their dispute amicably outside the Court and they have arrived at a compromise. A copy of compromise deed has been placed on record as Annexure No.3 to the application. The parties have confirmed the terms of 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 proceedings of Criminal Case No.26134 of 2021: State Vs. Vinod Yadav and others, arising out of Case Crime No.1173 of 2018, under Sections 147, 323, 504, 506 I.P.C. Police Station P.G.I. District Lucknow, pending in the Court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Lucknow are hereby quashed. . [Subhash Vidyarthi, J.] Order Date :- 25.7.2025 Ram.
