This appeal has been filed by the Insurance Company disclaiming the responsibility of payment.

2. The brief history of the case is that Motiram was working in a truck No MPN 5666. The same was owned by respondent No. 3 here. Gulabsingh was working in the truck. The truck met with an accident on May 21, 1982. Gulab Singh, who was an employee in the truck, died immediately. He was receiving a pay of Rs. 350/- per month from the owner of the truck. The information about the accident was given by the owner of the truck on June 27, 1982.
