K. Pallavi, Advocate for the 1st respondent and of the Public Prosecutor, on behalf of the 2nd Respondent. The Court made the following: ORDER: The petitioners and the 1st respondent are present in person before the Court and they are identified by Sri T. Pradyumna Kumar Reddy, learned counsel for the petitioners and Smt. K. Pallavi, learned counsel for the 1st respondent. They stated before the Court that they compounded and compromised all their differences and disputes and they requested that the criminal proceedings against the petitioners may be quashed. Sri T. Pradyumna Kumar Reddy, learned counsel for the petitioners also brought to notice from the material papers on record that in so far as the offence under Section 3 (1) (x) of the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 is concerned, there were no allegations in the first information report against the petitioners, who are not even referred to by their names in the said earliest version. At any rate, the record discloses that the disputes are purely personal in nature not involving any public policy and in view of the compromise, any continuance of the criminal proceedings against the petitioners will be futile. It is better to put an end to the vexing litigation by taking a pragmatic view as advised by the Apex Court and exercise the inherent jurisdiction to quash the proceedings. Accordingly, the further proceedings in Crime No.162 of 2009 of Moinabad police station, Ranga Reddy District against the petitioners are quashed and the criminal petition is allowed accordingly. The parties are informed. _______________________ G.
