ORDER
04.11.2022
Heard Mr. S.K. Goswami, learned counsel for the respondent/Insurance company. None appears for the claimant on call.
This present application arises out of MAC App. 92/2015. The said MACApp. 92/2015 was decided by this Court under its order dated 28.02.2020. By the aforesaid order, the award has been enhanced to Rs. 6,21,038/-.
As the Insurance had deposited the earlier award with interest and the same was also withdrawn by the claimant, this Court has directed that an amount of Rs. 1,65,000/- shall be paid to the claimant with an interest of 8% per annum till realisation and the interest shall be effective from the date of passing of the judgment and payable till deposit. An amount of Rs. 1,00,000/- was directed to kept in fixed in the name of one injured namely Ajijul Rahman @ Ajijul Islam.
The present application is filed alleging that in spite of such order dated 28.02.2020 and having the knowledge of such order, the Insurance company has not deposited the Page No.# 3/3
enhanced amount. It is seen that there is no specific direction to deposit the amount before this Court or before the learned Tribunal below. Therefore, at this stage, it is not discernable whether the Insurance Company had deposited the amount or not.
Be that as it made, in the interest of justice, the matter stands adjourned for the day. In the meantime, Mr. Goswami shall obtain instruction in this regard.
List this matter on 07.12.2022.
