has been further agreed between the parties that the present case may also be quashed on account of the aforesaid settlement entered into between the parties leading to filing of compromise petition dated 09.03.2017 which is a part of the supplementary affidavit filed by the petitioners in the aforesaid two cases.

I deem it fit and expedient to quash the connected proceeding especially in view of the fact that the learned counsel for the opposite party no. 2 is also in agreement thereof, under proper instructions from the opposite party no. 2.
