                         HON'BLE SMT. JUSTICE JUVVADI SRIDEVI

                              CRIMINAL PETITION No.2181 of 2025

       ORDER:

This Criminal Petition is filed by the petitioners/respondent Nos.1 to

11 to quash the proceedings against them in D.V.C.No.24 of 2024

pending on the file of the learned Judicial First Class Magistrate at

Manuguru.

2. Heard Sri Ramu Nallamothu, learned counsel for the

petitioners and Sri Jithender Rao Veeramalla, learned Additional Public

Prosecutor for respondent - State. Perused the record.

3. In the light of the judgment in Gaddameedi Nagamani v. State

of Telangana 1, a petition to quash the proceedings in Domestic

Violence Case is not maintainable, as Section 29 of the Protection of

Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 affords an efficacious

remedy by way of an appeal against the act of the Court below in taking

cognizance and numbering the D.V.C.

4. In view of the above, the petitioners are at liberty to avail the

said remedy.

2015 (2) ALD (CRL.) 764

5. However, in view of the request made by the learned counsel

for the petitioners, the appearance of the petitioners/respondent Nos.1

to 11 in D.V.C.No.24 of 2024 pending on the file of the learned Judicial

First Class Magistrate at Manuguru, is dispensed with, except on the

dates whenever their presence is required by the trial Court, and they

shall be represented by their counsel on every date of hearing and in

case of default, this order gets vacated automatically.

6. Accordingly, this Criminal Petition is disposed of.

Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed.
