We have gone through the pleadings and also the Memorandum of Understanding. We are convinced that for securing the ends of justice, the cases between the parties are to be put to an end. Therefore, the proceedings in the following cases are quashed: (I) Petition under Section 125 Cr.P.C. for seeking maintenance registered as Case No.133 of 2016 titled as Mohini v. Nitesh Gandhi pending before the District & Sessions Judge, Gurgaon (Haryana). (II) Petition under Section 12 of Domestic Violence Act registered as Case No.75 of 2016 titled as Mohini v.

As a part of the settlement, the appellant-husband has also handed over an amount of Rs. 5 lakhs to the respondent-wife and the remaining amount of Rs. 22.5 lakhs has been deposited with the Registry of this Court. The Registry is directed to hand over the said amount to the respondent-wife along with the accrued interest. 6. We have also perused the application for decree for divorce by mutual consent. Having regard to the background of the prolonged litigations between the parties, the settlement arrived through the intervention of the parents of both the appellant and the respondent and having interacted with the appellant and respondent who are present before us, we are of the view that this is a fit case for invocation of Article 142 of the Constitution of India for doing complete justice between the parties. Accordingly, the application is allowed and the marriage between the appellant and respondent is dissolved by a decree of divorce by mutual consent. The appeal is disposed of accordingly.
