ORDER
These appeals are filed on 09.01.2020. First date of admission of hearing was
on 31st Jan. 2020. Since filing of appeals Advocate for appellant never turned
up. Appellants are also not attending and the matters were adjourned for
hearing before admission from time to time. In spite of specific directions on
earlier date that if the appellants and their Advocate will not turned up,
necessary order will be passed in all the matters.
Perused the record. It reveals that, all the cases are based on Government
weather based crop insurance scheme. It reveals from record that, all the
cases are from Limbgaon Mahasul circle claiming compensation as not awarded
insurance amount as per norms. Wherein the respondent /original opponents
came with the defence that only trigger of continuous maximum weather about
39 degree Celsius is made out and therefore, compensation is awarded as per
Govt. circular dated 3.12.2015 which provide for continuous maximum weather
for six days at the rate of Rs.16,000/- per hector.
The District Consumer Forum has decided all the cases collectively and came to
the conclusion that already the amount awarded by opponent Insurance
Company at the rate of Rs.16,000/- per hector is just and proper. Hence,
pleased to dismiss the complaints claiming excess amount beyond the trigger
made out. And in some complaints No. CC/1146 to 1150 of 2018, CC/1092 of
2018 and CC/1120 of 2018 the complainant is directed to pay cost to the
opponent Bank to whom they made unnecessary party.
It seems that, appellants are not interested to proceed with the matters. In
spite of giving ample opportunity of hearing before admission appellants and
their Advocate not turned up even otherwise on perusal of record, and prima
facie reading there found no merits to admit the appeals. Hence, all the appeal
Nos. A/22/2020 to 92/2020 are hereby dismissed at the stage of admission.
