Punjab and Haryana HC Lok Adalat Awards Additional Rs 42 Lakh to Captain Parmila's Parents
Nearly 19 years after Indian Army officer Captain Parmila died in a 2007 road accident, the Punjab and Haryana High Court's Daily Lok Adalat approved a settlement awarding her parents an additional Rs 42 lakh beyond the earlier Rs 5.77 lakh compensation granted by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal. The appeal, filed by her parents challenging the initial award, was resolved amicably with the insurance company agreeing to the enhanced payment, which will be shared equally between the appellants.
