P.C. :
1] Heard the learned counsel for the applicants
and the learned counsel for the respondent no.1.
2] The learned counsel for the applicants submits
that respondent no.1 has challenged the judgment and
award passed by the Tribunal and has deposited the entire
award amount before this Court. The applicants are the
legal heirs of the deceased. They need amount for daily
expenses. They are facing starvation due to financial crisis,
hence, requested to allow the present application.
3] It is the contention of the learned counsel for
respondent no.1 that though in the claim petition the
income of the deceased was shown as Rs.11,000/- per

month, the Tribunal has considered more than Rs.13,000/-
per month income of the deceased; it is exorbitant. No
documentary evidence is produced on record to show the
income of the deceased on which basis the calculations are
done and this fact is challenged by respondent no.1 before
this Court by way of this appeal, hence, requested to dismiss
the application.
4] I have heard both learned counsel. The
applicants needed the amount for daily expenses. The issue
raised in the appeal is only regarding income of the
deceased considered by the Tribunal on higher side.
5] In view of this, I pass the following order:-
ORDER
i] The application is allowed.
ii] The applicants are permitted to withdraw 50% amount along with accrued interest thereon, out of deposited amount, on furnishing undertaking.
iii] Civil Application is disposed of accordingly.
