Holding
The claim awarded by the Railway Claims Tribunal is final, and the petition is partly allowed in accordance with the earlier judgment.
Summary
Petitioners Kailu Chaupal and another filed a writ petition challenging the release of the entire claim awarded by the Railway Claims Tribunal. The Court noted that the claim had already attained finality by its earlier judgment in Ram Naresh Singh and 5 Ors. Vs. Union of India dated 10 September 2026. Relying on that precedent, the Court partially allowed the present petition. The decision essentially upheld the finality of the Tribunal's award while granting limited relief as per the earlier judgment. The order was pronounced by Justice Rohit Ranjan Agarwal on 23 September 2026.
