Mannaram (1) and the subsequent judgment of this court in Supyar Kanwar v Ramesh Chand (2), the liability of the Insurance Company in cases of comprehensive Insurance, the liability is unlimited. It is argued that the lower court has committed serious error in limiting the liability to the extent of Rs. 50,000/ only.

(3.) IN view of the judgment in Chand Kanwar's case (supra), and the subsequent judgment of Supyar's case (supra), the position of law is very clear that in cases of comprehensive insurance, the INsurance Co. is liable to the full extent.
