JUDGMENT : Mansoor Ahmad Mir, J. Mr. M.A. Khan, the learned Additional Advocate General has filed affidavit in the open Court, made part of the file. Mr.Khan stated at the Bar that Mr. Gurdial Singh owner-cum-driver has passed away on the unfortunate day, i.e., the date of accident. 2. It appears that the claimant/appellant has remedy available in terms of the provisions of Workmen's Compensation Act and, that too, in the capacity of widow of the deceased and not as daughter of Bhagwan Dass. At this stage, the learned counsel for the appellant/claimant prayed that he may be permitted to withdraw the present appeal along with the claim petition with liberty to seek appropriate remedy. His statement is taken on record. 3. The Motor Vehicles Act has gone through the sea change. In terms of the Amendment Act 53 of 1994, Section 166 (3) stands deleted which contained the time frame for filing the claim petitions. Thus, the time frame cannot be a ground for dismissing the claim petitions. 4. In this backdrop, I deem it proper to grant liberty to the claimant/appellant to withdraw the appeal as well as the claim petition to seek appropriate remedy. It is provided that the period spent for prosecuting the claim petition as well as this appeal shall not come in the way of the claimant/appellant for seeking appropriate remedy. 5. In the given circumstances, the appeal as well as the claim petition is dismissed as withdrawn with liberty as prayed for.
