yes under rule 6(2) of the act, it is spcifically provided that for the recovery of the award amount provisions of section 128 of cr.P.Code shall be made applicable.
besides this aggrieved person can also make a police complaint for the recovery of the amount awarded.
and can file one more application, and then obtain protection award.on obtaining protection award, on breach of same, complaint can be filed u/s. 31 of the act which is again non bailable offence.
