JUDGMENT : A.S. Naidu, J. - Heard Learned Counsel for the Petitioners, Learned Counsel for the informant and the Learned Counsel for the State. 2. The Criminal Misc. Case has been filed invoking inherent jurisdiction of this Court u/s 482 Code of Criminal Procedure for quashing the order dated 15-4-2003 passed by the S.D.J.M., Bhawanipatna in G.R. Case No. 119 of 2002. By the impugned order the Court below has taken cognizance of offences u/s 498-A/34 Indian Penal Code and u/s 4 of the Dowry Prohibition Act alleged against the accused persons. 3. The informant has appeared through advocate and filed an affidavit inter alia stating that the dispute among her and the accused persons has been amicably settled and both the husband and wife are now leading a blissful married life. It is further submitted that continuance of the G.R. Case against the accused persons would course a dent in their peaceful married life. Considering the submissions made and also in the light of the decision in the case of B.S. Joshi v. State of Haryana, reported in (2003) 25 OCR (SC) 99, and either decisions of this Court feel that continuance of the G.R. Case at this juncture of time would not be beneficial to either party. In view of the fact that the G.R. Case arises out of a matrimonial dispute and both the husband and wife have ironed their differences and are leading a blissful conjugal life, continuance of the criminal proceeding would be an abuse of the process of law, I therefore quash the proceedings of G.R. Case No. 116 of 2002 pending before the S.D.J.M. Bhawanipatna. 4. The Criminal Misc. Case is disposed of.
