IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.13562 of 2006 MOSTT.MANKIYA DEVI Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 5/ 26/9/2008. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the respondent Board. The husband of the petitioner, a line man was electrocuted on duty. Learned counsel for the petitioner does not dispute the correctness of the submission made on behalf of the petitioners that the petitioner is getting family pension and her son has been appointed on compassionate grounds. The issue now only centres around payment of compensation to the petitioner for the death of the deceased on duty. The Board has elaborately laid down its policy more recently on 28.3.1997. No further orders are required at this stage except to direct that the legitimate compensation amount in accordance with the policy of the Board shall necessarily be paid to the petitioner within a maximum period of six months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. The application stands disposed. KC ( Navin Sinha,J )
