Though Smt.Rekha C.Nair, the learned Government Pleader and Sri.N.B.Sunilnath, the learned standing counsel for the Railway have addressed very strenuous submissions before us, having gone through the impugned judgment and having made a re-appraisal of the evidence, we are of the view that the enhancement granted by the learned subordinate judge is by no means excessive. We do not find any warrant for interference. The appeal stands dismissed, but without any order as to cost. PIUS C.KURIAKOSE, JUDGE K.SURENDRA MOHAN, JUDGE css/
