have amicably settled the dispute. Respondent No. 2 has filed her affidavit, stating therein that she has no objection if the complaint filed by her is quashed on account of amicable settlement between the parties. The judgment of the Apex Court in the case of - B. S. Joshi vs. State of Haryana [AIR 2003 SC 1386] is squarely applicable to the facts of the case, since both the parties are young and quashing of the complaint will be in the interest of Respondent No. 2 wife and there is no issue out of the marriage. We have, therefore, no hesitation in quashing the complaint by consent of parties. Criminal application is, therefore, allowed in terms of prayer clause (a) and is accordingly disposed of.
