Life Insurance Corporation Of India & ... vs Smt.Asha Goel & Anr

The Supreme Court upheld the Bombay High Court's decision allowing the Life Insurance Corporation of India to present evidence regarding the alleged misrepresentation in an insurance policy claim. The Court clarified that the maintainability of a writ petition under Article 226 is valid for enforcement of contractual rights, rejecting the Corporation's argument that such matters should be resolved through civil suits. The judgment emphasized the importance of allowing both parties to present their evidence before a final decision is made on the claim.
