Kumar Krishan Agarwal Advocate (Expert) 13 November 2010
The correct compensation amount according to the due process of law is :- Rs 6,48000 with accrued interest from the date of application. The judge is no voice and he ignore the laws and pass wrong order against claimant. We the advocates who taught them to become wiser and sound in law. So let him teach through Appellate court.

Claim also with this aforesaid amount all-
