CR No. 8320 of 2010 -1- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CR No. 8320 of 2010 (O&M) Date of decision:- 20.12.2010 Smt. Kiran and ors ......petitioners vs. Motor Accident Claims Tribunal and ors ......respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE HEMANT GUPTA Present: - Mr. Sanjeev Patiyal, Advocate for the petitioners HEMANT GUPTA, J (ORAL) Petitioners are claiming the interest on fixed deposits for the purpose of education of the minor children of claimant-petitioner No. 1. Learned counsel for the petitioners contends that an application to claim such benefits was dismissed by learned trial Court for the reasons that an amount of Rs. 2,91,000/- has been released in favour of claimant No. 1 to meet her immediate needs. Therefore, there is no need to release the amount of interest accruing on fixed deposits of the minor claimants No. 2 to 4. Learned counsel for the petitioners contends that the petitioners have purchased the land out of the amount disbursed to claimant No. 1 and therefore, she needs interest amount for the education of the children. It is admitted by learned counsel for the petitioners that the factum of purchase of land is not mentioned in an application filed before learned trial Court nor such facts have been mentioned in the grounds of revision of the present petition. In view of the said fact, I do not find that the factum of CR No. 8320 of 2010 -2- purchase of land can be taken notice of in the present revision petition at the stage of arguments. However, it shall be open to the petitioners to move an appropriate application before the learned trial Court with the relevant documents to show purchase of land. If the petitioner No. 1 has purchased the land out of amount of compensation, learned trial Court shall pass an appropriate order in respect of disbursement of interest amount to the petitioners for the purpose of the education of the minor claimants. Disposed of with liberty aforesaid. (HEMANT GUPTA) JUDGE 20.12.2010 preeti
