Case No.1235/2024, arising out of Case Crime No.0011/2024, Under Section 447, 352, 427 504 I.P.C., & 3(2)(va) SC/ST Act Police Station- Aasiwan, District Unnao "State Verses Jagdish and other" pending in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Unnao, in respect of the applicants, on the basis of compromise between the parties concerned, in the light of several law laid down by this Hon'ble Court as well as Hon'ble the Apex Court. 4. Learned counsel for the applicants submitted that parties do not want to pursue the case any further and they have entered into compromise. He further submits that vide order dated 24.09.2025 a direction was given to the trial court to verify the factum of compromise executed by the parties. In pursuance of the aforesaid order, learned trial court had verified the contents of compromise vide its order dated 19.11.2025. 5. Sri Udai Pratap Singh, Advocate, appearing for the opposite party No. Versus Counsel for Applicant(s) : Harendra Pratap Singh Counsel for Opposite Party(s) : G.A. Jagdish Yadav And 3 Others .....Applicant(s) State Of U.P. Thru. Secy. Deptt. Of Home Civil Sectt. Lko. And Another .....Opposite Party(s) 2, agrees to the contentions made by the learned counsel for the applicants, and he does not have any objection to the aforesaid proceedings being quashed. 6. Learned A.G.A. has fairly conceded that compromise has been effected between the parties and the same has duly been verified by the trial court. 7. Hon'ble Apex Court in catena of decisions has held that inherent power can be used to do real and substantial justice as has been held in Gian Singh Vs State of Punjab, 2012 AIR SCW 5333, B.S. Joshi and others Vs State of Haryana, (2003) 3 SCC 675 and Narinder Singh Vs State of Punjab, (2014) 6 SCC 466. Hence, inherent power can be exercised to speed up the process of ending the criminal proceedings where the settlement is arrived at between the parties. 8. In view of the aforesaid and the fact that parties do not want to pursue the case any further, the matter is purely of personal nature, which has been mutually settled between the parties by way of the compromise, therefore, no useful purpose would be served in proceeding with the matter further. 9. For the discussions made above, the present application is allowed. The entire proceedings of case bearing case no. Case No.1235/2024, arising out of Case Crime No.0011/2024, Under Section 447, 352, 427 504 I.P.C., & 3(2)(va) SC/ST Act Police Station- Aasiwan, District Unnao "State Verses Jagdish and other" pending in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Unnao, in respect of the applicants, are hereby quashed.
