Efforts were even made to serve the respondent through SHO of the concerned police sta/on but in vain. In the aforesaid facts and circumstances, when there is no representa/on on behalf of the claimants, both these appeals stand disposed of, with liberty to the claimants to get the same revived, in case, any cause of ac/on survives and in case, they want to pursue the same. As and when any such applica/on is moved by the claimant, the appeal pertaining to the insurance company shall also be liable to be revived.
