Smt. Salama Khatoon Washi Ahemad Khan ... vs United India Insurance Co. Ltd on 20 February, 2024
This judgment is dated 13 December 2017. But, the Order of
Hon'ble Supreme Court in Rajkumar Agrawal's case (supra) is dated
19 January 2023. Therefore in view of the fact that this aspect of bar
u/s 53 of the ESI Act to proceedings under MV Act is referred by

Hon'ble Supreme Court to a Bench of appropriate strength for
authoritative pronouncement, I find it appropriate to refrain from
passing an order on application by Applicant Nos.1 to 4, for the time
being and it is left open to be decided by this Court at appropriate
time. I say so because even partial withdrawal of amount has a
hurdle of bar u/s. 53 of ESI Act as it goes to the maintainability of
the claim itself.
