CR No.963 of 2010 (O&M) 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CR No.963 of 2010 (O&M) Decided on : 28-10-2010 Priti and others ....Petitioners VERSUS Bala Devi and another ....Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE MAHESH GROVER Present:- Mr. Sandeep Kotla, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. Vivek Singla, Advocate for the respondent no.2. MAHESH GROVER, J In this revision petition grandfather of the petitioners has made a grievance that he is the grandfather of the children whose father has died in a vehicular accident. The compensation awarded to the minor children has been directed to be kept in Fixed Deposit Receipt. The mother of the children has re-married and it is the grandfather who is looking after the minor children. Learned counsel for the petitioners states that petitioners' grandfather is an old person and requires some amount to maintain and to pay for the expenses of the children who are in his care. After hearing learned counsel for the petitioners, I am of the considered opinion that the prayer made herein is seemingly justified. Accordingly, the petitioners' grandfather would be entitled to withdraw the interest accrued upon the principal amount to maintain the children CR No.963 of 2010 (O&M) 2 and to pay for their expenses. The principal amount shall however be retained in the Fixed Deposit Receipt as directed by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal and be made available to the minor children on attaining majority.
