Thammu Panduranga Rao & Anr vs State Of A.P

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of accused Nos. 1 and 2 under Section 304(2) IPC, modifying the High Court's decision which had reduced their conviction from Section 304 IPC. The Court found that the evidence established that the accused acted in a sudden quarrel without premeditation, justifying the lesser charge. The sentence was further reduced from ten years to three years for both accused, affirming the High Court's modification of the original sentence under Section 325 IPC for accused No. 2.
