In Oriental Insurance Co. Ltd. v. Meenakshi
Khosla 2012 (130) DRJ 319, it has been held that if the legal notice was
duly sent on the correct address of the defendant, the same is deemed to
CS No. 923/19 Pawan Kumar v. Neeraj Conductor Page No. 7 of 10
be due service. The legal demand notice bears the address of the
defendant.
20. All the above judgments go to show that strict adherence of the policy
document is the norm. A serious doubt exists as to whether or not the notice
was given and whether the claim was submitted. Evidence of the Plaintiff‟s
witness does not inspire confidence. No independent evidence has been led
even to prove the occurrence of the accident. No surveyor was deputed by
the Insurance Company and the follow up, if any, also lacks urgency to say
the least. Learned counsel for Respondent relies upon Oriental Insurance
Co. Ltd. v. Meenakshi Khosla 2012 (130) DRJ 319 to submit that a legal
notice was served and despite serious assertions made in the same, reply to
the notice did not deal with the averments in the notice.
