CR No. 1530 of 2007 (1) IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CR No. 1530 of 2007 Date of Decision: 20.3.2007 Smt. Rama Rani Mahajan and others ...Petitioners Versus Union of India and others ....Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Hemant Gupta. Present: Shri Anupam Bhardwaj, Advocate, for the petitioners. HEMANT GUPTA, J. Challenge in the present revision petition is to the order passed by the learned Motor Accident Claims Tribunal on 5.3.2007, whereby evidence of the petitioners was closed. Learned counsel for the petitioners has pointed out that the witness is from Anantnag (Kashmir). The petitioners had taken Dasti summons but a communication was received from the Block Medical Officer with a request that the summons may kindly be re-issued and such summons be sent officially through the Office of Director Health Services, Kashmir Division, Shrinagar. Thus, it cannot be said that the petitioners were negligent in prosecuting the claim petition before the learned Tribunal. In view of the fact that the petitioners have taken sufficient steps for securing the presence of the witness but the witness could not appear for one or the other reason, I deem it appropriate to grant opportunity to the petitioners to examine their witness. Ordered accordingly. CR No. 1530 of 2007 (2) The learned Tribunal shall provide assistance to the petitioners to secure the presence of the witness on the date that may be fixed by the learned Tribunal. Civil Revision stands allowed in the above terms. 20-03-2007 (HEMANT GUPTA) ds JUDGE
