It has been stated that a minor skirmish took place on account of which FIR and cross case came to be lodged. The parties are residents of the same area and want to live in peace and harmony. In pursuance of the said goal, all the disputes have been settled and therefore, the FIR and the cross case be quashed. I have considered the contention of learned counsel for the parties. Compromise between the parties is placed on record as Annexure P-2 alongwith CRM No.M-22192 of 2011. Since the parties are present in Court and endorse the factum of compromise, it would be in the interest of peace and harmony, to quash the proceedings.
