The £ind£ng is unexcey‘aionable and there is no scoee for taking any other view on ihe basis of documems, xamination of witnesses and other atiending circumstances. However, direction to the respondeni No. 2 to recover a sum of Rs. 50,000/— from the appellants is erroneous as the paynent of Rs. 50,000l- itself is under no fault liability. Even if he was at fault: still the appellants/claimants are entitlecl to the said amount. Therefore, the direction to the extent of recovery of Rs. 50:0061-5 from the appeilants/claiinants is not proper. Accordingly, the direction to the saitl extent is quashed. The appeal is allowed partly to the extent indicated ztbove. No order asto h costs. / / g” i Scu- 7 Saush K. Sd/v N. K. AgarwaL.-e-,, _ Agnihom qudge, 1 ‘ Judge Amit
