UNION OF INDIA Vs. BHALLE RAM AND OTHERS

JUDGEMENT

(1.) The revision petition is against the order passed by the Executing Court allowing for interest on the solatium for a period even before the decision in Sunder Vs. Union of India, 2001 2 LJR 856. The contention is that the decision in Gurpreet Singh Vs. Union of India, 2006 8 SCC 457 case has not been properly followed.

(2.) The decision in Gurpreet Singh's case sets out these propositions:-

(3.) I asked the counsel whether there had been any specific claim made for interest by the claimant and that it had been impliedly or expressly declined. The counsel for the Union is not able to point out anything that such a claim is made and rejected by the court below.
