Petitioners seek quashing of case FIR No. 285/2023 of PS Baba Haridas Nagar Dwarka, New Delhi for offence under Section 498A/34 IPC on the ground that the complainant de facto (respondent no.2) has settled the dispute with the petitioners.

Respondent no. 2 present in Court and identified by IO/ASI Suman Lata accepts notice. Learned APP accepts notice and submits that there is no serious objection to this petition.

Petitioner no. 1 and respondent no. 2 also have a daughter, currently aged about 6 years.
