Respondents. ----------- 02 24.03.2009 The petitioner is aggrieved by repudiation of his claim under an insurance policy with the National Insurance Company of India in respect of death of his nephew. In my view, it would only appropriate that the petitioner should resort to the remedy as provided under the Redressal of Public Grievances Rules, 1998 made with reference to Section 114 of the Insurance Act, 1938 before the Ombudsman so appointed, in view of specific statutory alternative remedy available. Learned counsel for the petitioner seeks permission to withdraw this writ application to move an application accordingly before the Ombudsman, who shall entertain and decide the same on merits and in accordance with law. The permission is granted. The writ application is dismissed as withdrawn. Trivedi/ (Navaniti Prasad Singh, J.)
