Case Summary: Bhagwati Bai v. Eshwar Singh Outcome: The Supreme Court partially allowed the appeal on May 2, 2007. The court increased compensation from Rs. 50,000 to Rs. 1,50,000 total (Rs. 1,00,000 additional with 6% interest from September 5, 1991), finding the lower courts had wrongly rejected the widow's credible claims about her deceased husband's age (50 years) and income (Rs. 1,500-1,600 p.m.). Next Steps: The respondent was directed to release the remaining compensation of Rs. 1,00,000 with accrued interest within eight weeks from the judgment date.
