The Complaint Case No.21790 of 2022; Tarawati Yadav Versus Pradeep Yadav and others, under Sections 498-A, 323, 504, 506 IPC and Section 3/4 of Dowry Prohibition Act was filed by the respondent no.2 against the applicants, which is pending in the court of Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate-IV, Court No.28, Lucknow and the applicants were summoned by means of the order dated 17.03.2023 to face the trial. The applicants had earlier approached this Court by means of Application under Section 482 No.2779 of 2025; Pradeep Yadav alias Deepu and 2 others Versus State of U.P.and another for quashing of the summoning order as well as the proceedings on the ground that the parties have amicably compromised their dispute. Considering the same, this Court, by means of the order dated 02.04.2025, had directed the parties to file compromise before the concerned court with a direction to the concerned court to verify the compromise in presence of the parties and it was made open to the parties to approach this Court again for quashing of the proceedings alongwith certified copy of the report as well as compromise. In pursuance thereof, the compromise dated 19.03.2025 was filed before the concerned court, which has been verified by the concerned court on 15.07.2025. The certified copy of the said compromise alongwith verification order has been placed on record of the application as Annexure No.4 and 5. 9. In view of above, it is apparent that the parties have entered into compromise and have settled their dispute amicably. Thus in the light of the view taken by the Hon'ble Supreme Court, in the cases of Manoj Sharma Vs. State(supra), Narinder Singh Vs. State of Punjab (supra) and Yogendra Yadav Vs. State of Jharkhand(supra), this Court in exercise of it's inherent power under Section 482 Cr.P.C. can quash the proceedings as the dispute has been amicably settled between the parties. 10. In the light of the fact that the settlement has been arrived at between the applicants and the private respondent and it does not affect the public at large, and would only amount to private dispute between the parties, no useful purpose will be served by allowing the applicants to be prosecuted in the said trial, therefore, the proceedings of the aforesaid case are quashed. 11. Accordingly, the application under Section 482 Cr.P.C. is allowed. . ............................................(Rajnish Kumar,J.)
