Surekha Babasaheb Mane And Another vs Ramrao Waman Mane And Others on 7 April, 2026

In support of their contention, reliance is placed on the judgment of the High Court of Madras in Saroja Vs. Parvathy & Ors., reported in 2021 SCC OnLine Mad 17410 , to contend that dependency is a relevant criterion for awarding compensation and mere legal status Tauseef 3 of 4 113-WP.1605.2019 is not sufficient to sustain a claim. It is submitted that the Petitioners were neither residing with nor dependent upon the deceased Babasaheb and, therefore, were not impleaded as parties to the claim petition. It is further submitted that though the claim petition was filed in the year 2014 and the compromise was recorded and award passed on 28.09.2015, the Petitioners initiated proceedings for heirship certificate only thereafter. The heirship certificate was ultimately issued on 20.03.2020 by the Civil Judge, Junior Division, Georai under the Bombay Regulation Act, 1827. Hence, it is contended that the Petitioners were not dependents and the compromise cannot be faulted.
