She has stated that she had married with the petitioner on her own accord and according to her own free will. The marriage was solemnized in the year 2008 and she is living happily in her matrimonial home and has been blessed with two sons.

Considering the fact that the petitioner and his wife belong to lower strata of the society, they have solemnized marriage and they are blessed with two sons, this Court is of the view that their ordeal should come to an end instantaneously, and as the investigating officer has submitted that the cancellation report shall be filed, this Court should relieve the petitioner and respondent No.4 from the burden of forthcoming litigation. Hence, this petition is accepted and the impugned FIR Annexure P-3 is quashed. [Kanwaljit Singh Ahluwalia] January 27, 2011. Judge kadyan
