1. Complainant states that, complainants husband accidently died on 18/01/2005 so complainant filed claim form with required documents to the Talathi is within time but according to the complainant opposite party not sanctioned complainants claim and kept pending.   Complainant is women and illiterate women and do not posses legal knowledge hence delay caused to file present complaint so in the interest of justice delay of 14 yrs 07 months 22 days may be condoned.
2. Opposite party filed say stating in that, complainant failed to substantiate reason for her failure to approach this commission and no document is produced by the complainant to substantiate the claim of her mere statement cannot be accepted prima facie and statement is false and no any document to show whether complainant was in touch with agriculture department and opposite party, so this Commission has no jurisdiction.   Thus according to the opposite party delay has not been explained each and every day by the complainant so present application be dismissed with cost.
