WP No.10516/16
ORAL JUDGMENT :
1) Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith. By consent,
heard both the sides for final disposal.
2) Present proceeding is filed to challenge the orde
made in Claims Petition No. 628/2011 by the Claims Tribunal,
Parbhani. When the application was moved for releasing the
entire amount of compensation awarded in favour of petitioners,
the Tribunal allowed the claimants to withdraw the amount of Rs.
1,94,645/- from respective fixed deposits which appears to be
interest amount. The submissions made show that the Insurance
Company has not challenged the decision of the Tribunal and the
decision has become final.
3) The submissions was made that Renuka, petitioner
No. 4 needs the amount for her marriage and petitioner No. 2
and 3 need amount as they can do some profitable business to
earn their livelihood. However, the reason given in respect of
petitioner No. 1 is not found sufficient. She is widow of the
deceased. There is every possibility that out of love and
affection, she may give entire amount to sons in future and sons
may not provide protection to her. In view of this possibility, the
amount cannot be released in favour of Kokila, petitioner No. 1.
WP No.10516/16
However, she is entitled to receive quarterly interest on that
amount.
4) In the result, the petition is allowed. The amounts
kept in the names of petitioner Nos. 2 to 4 are to be released in
their favour. But the amount of Kokila, petitioner No. 1 is not to
be released and she is entitled to receive quarterly interest on
this amount. The order already made in favour of Kokila in
respect of her entitlement to withdraw the amount of Rs.
1,94,645/- is kept intact and she is entitled to get that amount.
So, the order made of rejection against petitioner Nos. 2 to 4 by
the Tribunal is set aside.
Rule is made absolute in aforesaid terms.
