Western Railway to pay 8.86 lakh compensation for its negligence

Noteworthy Judgement was given by consumer court: Western Railway to pay Rs 8,86,000 compensation to a family who lost their family member due to their negligence.

In the year 2013, Mahanarayan Pandey took Firozpur Janta express. After the train started he got the chest pain, the co-passengers took out the mobile from his pocket and called his son in law to inform about his condition.

He then asked them to request the railway official to stop the train at Vishwamitri. However, the railway official informed the Karjan railway station about the incident and told them for medical treatment. The train reached Karjan and Mahanarayan Pandey was shifted to Karjan government hospital where doctors declared him dead.

The family reached out to P.V. Moorjhani Managing Trustee of Jagrut Nagrik Grahak Mandal about the incident and they registered a case in Vadodara Consumer Forum in 2015. After all these years of fight finally the family gets the compensation for their loss due to the negligence of the railway official.
