JUDGMENT 1. - Claim petition of the petitioner was rejected by the Tribunal in default. Even restoration application has also been dismissed mainly on the ground of reasons in the medical certificate not sufficient and further, on the ground of delay. 2. After having carefully gone through the material on record as also in the interest of justice, in such matters of accident claim, the Tribunal should have taken a lenient view. 3. Accordingly, the writ petition is allowed. The impugned orders passed by the Tribunal are set aside. The matter is remanded back to the Tribunal to decide the claim petition of the petitioner afresh on merits after giving proper opportunity of hearing to all the parties concerned. Since the petitioner-claimant and the Insurance Company are duly represented through their counsel, they may appear before the Tribunal on 30.4.2007 to take a date for further proceedings in the matter.Writ Petition Allowed. *******
