¶25

Though, injuries received by the above said two injured persons i.e. Geeta Devi and Anwar were found to be simple in nature, keeping in mind the manner in which the those were given, the cases got registered for commission of offences under Sections 110/3(5) BNS.

¶34

They claim that they have entered into settlement with the intervention of wellwishers, voluntarily and without any pressure or coercion. The affidavits of respondents in both the cases, giving their ‘ no objection’ to the quashing of respective FIRs have also been placed on record and reliance is placed on Gian Singh v. State of Punjab & Anr. (2012) 10 SCC 303.

¶35

In view of the settlement arrived at between the parties, continuing with criminal proceedings would serve no useful purpose. Even otherwise, the injuries sustained are not serious and are simple in nature. Reference be made to Narinder Singh & Ors. vs. State of Punjab & Anr., (2014) 6 SCC 466 , Antonnette Promilla Fernanadez v. State NCT of Delhi and Another 2026 SCC OnLine Del 809 and Mohd. Rashid & Ors. V. The State (Govt. Of Nct Of Delhi) & Anr. (in CRL.M.C.8182/2025; DoD 18.11.2025).

¶36

Keeping in mind the aforesaid and in order to f acilitate both the sides in maintaining and restoring cordiality, the proceedings deserve to be quashed. 13. Accordingly, exercising inherent powers vested in this Court under Section 528 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 , it is deemed appropriate to quash both the FIR. 14. Consequently, to secure the ends of justice, FIR No.58/2025 and FIR No.59/2025 dated 23.01.2025, registered at P.S. Burari, for commission of offences under Sections 110/3(5) BNS, along with all consequential proceedings arising therefrom, quashed. Original Compromise Deed and original affidavits of parties, copies of which have been filed with the present petition, shall be submitted to concerned SHO/IO within four weeks from today.
