negligence act by electricity department

Injured/aggrieved person should file claim petition and claim compensation against Electricity Dept under the provisions of Fatal Accident Claim Act 1885.

Police came to spot?  Any cctv footage their? It is purely negligence  and  breach of law . Send a legal notice and seeking damage and compensations  for which better to consult local lawyer 

The injury happened in a motor vehicle accident. The better option, in my understanding, is to seek compensation under the provisions of the MV Act.

In such eventuality you should lodge your claim for compensation against the electricity department, owner and driver of tractor and insurance company.

Consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for appreciation of facts/ documents, professional advise and necessary proceeding. 

The best option is for filing a case of compensation under MV Act making 1.Electricity dept 2.Tractor owner  3.Insurance company.  At some places, there are advocates that may advance a sum, not more than Rs.1 lakh for interest and with predetermined fees, and after getting a claim they will deduct the advance and fees and can pay the balance amount.  I do not think that the tractor can get insurance as this amounts to commercial transport where the premium is heavy and they might have insured only for agricultural purposes, where the premium is less.  But do make a close follow up with police complaint and the findings will certainly be material to the findings of civil Motor accidents case.  Also, contact District Local services authority for compromise through Lokadalat camp ( periodically twice in a year) where the decisions are taken immediately through negotiations.

A claim under the provisions of MV Act can be filed before the jurisdictional  MACT to claim compensation by impleading the tractor driver, owner, electricity department and the insurance company as parties to the case.

You may contact a lawyer practicing in MACT  cases for getting the relief.
