P.C.: P.C.: P.C.: 1. Heard Mr. Ronghe the learned counsel for the applicant - original claimant. In First Appeal No. 1418 of 2008, which has been admitted by us today at the instance of the Insurer, the said Insurer has deposited an amount of Rs. 5,23,004/- with the Claims Tribunal at Pune as per the direction of this court. The applicant prays for directions to allow her to withdraw the entire deposited amount. 2. We have noted that the applicant is about 42 years of age and is running a beauity parlour. We deem it appropriate that she should be allowed to :2: withdraw an amount of Rs.2,50,000/- unconditionally, which amount she claims to have spent on her medical treatment and the remaining amount should be deposited with a nationalised bank. 3. Hence, the application is partly allowed and the applicant is permitted to withdraw an amount of Rs.2,50,000/- unconditionally from the Claims Tribunal at Pune. We further direct that the balance amount of Rs.2,73,004/- be invested in a fixed deposit with a nationalised bank at Pune by the Claims Tribunal initially for a period of one year. 4. The Claims Tribunal must ensure that the amount allowed to be withdrawn is remitted by way of a crossed cheque drawn in favour of the applicant. (D.B. Bhosale, J.) (D.B. Bhosale, J.) (D.B.
