JUDGEMENT

(1.) DENIAL of compensation to the claimants, they being the mother, widow and children of Kashmira Singh deceased, who is said to have been killed in an accident when he was run over by the truck PBO-931, clearly warrant no interference in appeal.

This accident was, however, denied by the respondents.
