*** AJAY TEWARI, J (Oral) Prayer in the present petition, filed under Section 482 of the Cr.P.C, is for quashing of FIR No.9, dated 11.1.2012, registered under Sections 323, 324, 342, 452 of the IPC, at Police Station Bhargo Camp, Jalandhar, on the basis of a compromise, arrived at between the parties.

Pursuant to the order of this Court dated 6.3.2013, report dated 30.4.2013 from the Judicial Magistrate Ist Class, Jalandhar has been received attesting to the fact that the matter has been compromised between the parties.

Counsel for the parties have also stated that the matter has been CRM-M No.7554 of 2013 ::2:: settled amicably between the parties.

Counsel for the State of Punjab informs the Court that there is no other case pending against the parties.

In view of the facts, noticed herein above, it is apparent that both the parties have arrived at a bona fide settlement and have compromised the matter amicably.

I am of the opinion that it would be in the interest of justice, as also in the interest of parties, if the present FIR and all subsequent proceedings, emanating therefrom are quashed.

It is a fit case where this Court should exercise jurisdiction, under Section 482 of the Cr.P.C to put an end to these futile criminal proceedings.

Even otherwise, a Full Bench of this Court has issued broad guidelines in Kulwinder Singh and others vs State of Punjab and another, 2007(3) RCR (Crl) 1052, for quashing of the FIR where parties enter into compromise.

Consequently, the present petition is allowed and FIR No.9, dated 11.1.2012, registered under Sections 323, 324, 342, 452 of the IPC, at Police Station Bhargo Camp, Jalandhar, and all subsequent proceedings, emanating therefrom, are quashed.
