SL. No. Date Office Notes, reports, orders or proceedings or directions and Registrar’s order with Signatures COURT’S OR JUDGE’S ORDERS WPCRL No. 730 of 2026 With Compounding Appl. No. 1 of 2026 Hon'ble Rakesh Thapliyal, J. 1. Mr. Yogesh Upadhyay, learned counsel for the petitioner. 2. Ms. Rangoli Purohit, learned Brief Holder for the State. 3. Mr. Kaushal Sah Jagati, learned counsel for the complainant. 4. The instant petition has been moved by the petitioners Vijendra Singh, Sarvesh Kumar, Satyandra Kumar, Manoj, Rajiv Kumar for quashing of the FIR dated 14.04.2026, bearing FIR No. 102 of 2026, registered at P.S. Kunda, District U.S. Nagar wherein they have been implicated for the offences punishable under Sections 115, 191(1), 191(2), 191(3), 303(2) and 352 BNS 2023. 5. The petition is supported with the compounding application (IA No. 1 of 2026) with the affidavits of the petitioners and respondent no. 3 and 4. The parties are present in Court and are identified by their counsel. 6. It is argued that petitioners and respondent no. 3 and 4 belongs to the same village and due to some minor issue there were hot talks in between them, however, they resolve their dispute amicably and their relations are now cordial. 7. Complainants/victims are present in Court and submit that since they have resolved their dispute amicably they do not want to pursue with the impugned FIR. 8. On the other side, Ms. Rangoli Purohit, learned Brief Holder for the State submits that all the offences are compoundable except offence punishable under Section 191(1) of BNS but with the leave of the Court this offence can be compounded. Apart from this she submits that since complainant/victim does not want to proceed with the impugned FIR, there is no useful purpose to continue with the investigation. 9. After hearing arguments of learned counsel for the parties and taking into consideration that all the offences are compoundable except one which can be compounded with the leave of the Court, as such, this Court is of the view that there is no useful purpose to go with the further investigation and the compounding application deserves to be allowed. 10. Accordingly, the compounding application as well as the writ petition are allowed. The impugned FIR is hereby quashed. (Rakesh Thapliyal, J.) 24.04.2026 Parul
