1. The grievance of the petitioners in this revisional application is that the Commissioner for Workmens Compensation wrongly held in favour of the opponent that she was entitled to continue the original application filed for compensation by her deceased husband, and in that connection the Commissioner wrongly rejected the contention made on behalf of the petitioners that the application for bringing the opponent on record was not made within the period of limitation prescribed.

The contention was that the original applicant died on September 25, 1967, and the application for bringing the opponent, being the widow of the deceased applicant, on record was made on February 21, 1968. The original application must be held to have abated. The present application for bringing the opponent on record was made on February 21,
