Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the claimant-respondents are entitled to withdraw the amounts deposited before the Court and the M.A.C.T., Gonda, including a statutory deposit of Rs.25,000/- made before the High Court. The Court clarified that while the claimants can access these funds, the Insurance Company retains the right to recover the deposited amount from the vehicle owner. The appeal was disposed of with these directions.
