The respondent is physically present before this Court. The appellant has filed supplementary affidavit as well as joint compromise petition. In both the petitions filed today, it has been pointed out on behalf of both the sides that the parties have compromised the matter and they are not desirous to proceed any further. On affidavit, the terms of compromise has been accepted by both sides i.e. the appellant and the respondent, according to which, certain terms and conditions have been prescribed for both the sides. In terms of compromise, two drafts one for Rs. 1,85,000/- and another of Rs. 1,95,000/- has been handed over to the respondent before this court and she has received the same. Regarding other terms of compromise, it has been submitted that some cases are pending before the Criminal Courts, and for that, 2 the parties would assist the court for quick disposal of the cases so that, both sides may take rest now. We cannot express any opinion regarding quashing of the criminal prosecution in this miscellaneous appeal, but we will desire that the parties have compromise the case so that all the disputes must settle without delay and for that purpose the parties are ready to co-operate and hence, courts will see that the parties are not harassed much and their cases are finished without any further delay. Both sides have prayed that their marriage should be dissolved from today. We are also of the considered view that the parties are on litigating terms since long and further harassment would jeopardizes their career. Accordingly, their marriage stands dissolved from today. In view of the aforesaid discussions, this miscellaneous appeal is disposed of in terms of the compromise arrived between the parties and the compromise petition will form part of this order.
