TO JUDGE Rp ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 30884 OF 2011 ===================== Dated this the 19th day of November, 2011 J U D G M E N T Petitioner is a local fisherman of Neendakara Fishing Harbour. He was also a beneficiary of group insurance scheme sponsored by the 1st respondent with the 4th respondent Insurance Company. Following an accident, petitioner has lodged a claim and by Ext.P5, a compensation of `80,000 was paid. On receipt of the compensation, petitioner submitted Ext.P6 to the 1st respondent requesting for enhancing the compensation. The request is not considered and that led the petitioner to file this writ petition. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and also the learned standing counsel appearing for respondents 1 to 3, I am inclined to dispose of this writ petition itself directing the 1st respondent, before whom Ext.P6 is pending, to consider the same and take appropriate action in the matter. This the 1st respondent shall do at any rate within 4 weeks of production of a copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ petition. Sd/- ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp //True Copy// PA to Judge
