Judge enhanced the compensation by his award and decree made under Section 26 on August 20, 1983. Thereafter the State carried the matter in appeal but the claimants did not. The High Court by judgment dated August 22, 1984 dismissed the appeals. Subsequently, the appellants came to file applications under Order 47 Rule 1 and Section 151 CPC for amendment of the decree to award benefits of Sections 23(1-A), 23(2) and 28 of the Act as amended by Central Act 68 of 1984.
