In this behalf a joint affidavit of opposite party no.2 and applicant no.1 has been filed today in which it is stated that both parties have settled all their disputes and differences amicably and they are now living together happily with their ten years old daughter. In Para 5 of the supplementary affidavit it is stated that on the basis of compromise between the parties one case under the Domestic Violence Act has been quashed by this Court vide order dated 19.9.2019 in Criminal Misc. Application (U/s 482 Cr.P.C.) No.34169 of 2019, whose copy has been annexed as Annexure- SA-1 to the supplementary affidavit. Therefore, in terms of the compromise, the parties have agreed to withdraw all the cases against each other so that they may live amicably and peacefully.
