This application u/s 528 Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (hereinafter referred to as BNSS) has been filed with the prayer to quash the entire proceedings, including charge-sheet dated 15.02.2023 and 10.08.2023 as well as cognizance orders dated 17.02.2023 and order dated 10.01.2024, of Case No. 3729/2023 arising out of Case Crime No. 210/2020, U/s 147, 148, 149, 506, 504, 120-B I.P.C., Police Station- Kasna, District- Gautam Budh Nagar, (State v. Satveer Bansal and others), pending before Civil Judge (Junior Division) FTC-2, Gautam Budh Nagar, on the basis of compromise arrived at between the parties. 3. It has been argued by the learned counsel for the applicants that the alleged dispute between the parties has taken place due to misconception and that now both the parties have amicably settled the dispute and compromised the case. The informant of the case does not want to pursue the impugned proceedings. In pursuance to order dated 11.04.2025, passed by this Court in Application u/s 482 No. 29572 of 2024, both the parties have filed compromise before the trial Court, which has duly been verified vide order dated 29.04.2025, the certified copy of the same is available on record. It was submitted that in view of aforesaid facts and circumstances, no useful purpose would be served by keeping the
impugned proceedings pending and thus, the impugned proceedings may be quashed on the basis of compromise arrived at between the parties. 4. Learned A.G.A. has no objection if parties compromise the matter. 5. I have considered the submissions and perused the record. 6. It is well settled that in appropriate cases criminal proceedings may be quashed on the basis of compromise by invoking inherent powers enshrined under Section 528 BNSS. In the instant case, the matter relates to private dispute between the parties. If parties compromise the matter, it would not have adverse impact on society. The informant of the case does not want to pursue the impugned proceedings. There is nothing to indicate that parties have any criminal antecedents.
The compromise filed by the parties before the trial court, has already been verified by the court concerned. Considering facts of the matter, it would be in the interest of justice that the impugned proceedings be quashed. 7. In view of the aforesaid, the entire impugned proceedings, including charge-sheet & cognizance / summoning order, of the aforesaid case, against applicants, namely, Sunil Bansal, Satveer Bansal, Manoj Kumar, Nitin Kumar, Pankaj, Arun and MP @ Arvind are hereby quashed. 8. The application u/s 528 BNSS is allowed. Order Date :- 9.7.2025 Rama Kant Digitally signed by :- RAMA KANT High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
