Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court quashed several pending cases between the parties, including a criminal case and petitions under the Domestic Violence Act, 2005, and Section 125 of the CrPC, following a mutual settlement where the petitioners agreed to pay Rs. 40 lacs to the respondent. The Court held that in light of the compromise, it was appropriate to grant a decree of divorce by mutual consent and quash the related proceedings. The decision emphasized the importance of amicable resolution in family disputes.
