In Brief
The appellant challenged a High Court order in a compensation matter concerning the Public Works Department. The Court noted that the case was governed by a prior Supreme Court judgment (Fula Bhoru Ughade) that had enhanced one-time compensation from Rs. 40,000 to Rs. 1,00,000 for similarly situated parties. The Court directed the appellant to file a representation before the respondent within one month. If the appellant qualifies under the prior judgment, the respondent must grant the enhanced compensation of Rs. 1,00,000 within a further month. The appeal was disposed of accordingly.
