I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the record. CRM No.M-14174 of 2010 It has been stated by learned counsel for the parties that both the parties belong to same village and the dispute has since been settled due to intervention of respectable persons and relatives. Respondent No.2 – complainant also appeared in person with his counsel and filed reply by way of affidavit admitting the factum of compromise and stating that he is having no objection if the FIR and consequential proceedings are quashed. In appropriate cases FIR can be quashed on the basis of compromise by exercising power under Section 482 Cr.P.C., even if the offences are not compoundable. It was so held by Full Bench of this Court in the case of Kulwinder Singh v. State of Punjab, 2007(3) RCR (Crl.) 1052. Since the parties have amicably settled the matter and compromise has been effected between them due to intervention of the respectable persons and relatives, in the interest of harmonious relations between the parties, who are residents of same village, the present petition is allowed and the impugned FIR No. 25, dated 28.02.2010 under Sections 323/324/452/34 IPC, registered at P.S.
