LUCKNOW: The high court on Friday summoned the secretary concerned, dealing with the payment of compensation to victims of Sikh riots of 1984, on December 22 with records, inquiry reports and list of persons to whom compensation has been paid. The court also appointed a local government lawyer as amicus curiae to extend assistance to it in the matter.
The order was passed by a division bench of Justice D P Singh and Justice S C Chaurasia on a petition of victim, Amar Singh Virk. The petitioner was aggrieved by the meagre payment of compensation to the member of the family, who had died in riots that had occurred in 1984. It was pointed out before the court that some petitions were filed in supreme court, which had been remanded to the court. A bunch of writ petitions came up for hearing before the court on Friday.
On inquiry, the government counsel failed to submit any reply with regard to amount paid to bereaved family.
Hence, the bench summoned the concerned authority with entire records over the matter.
