4. During the course of submissions, it is pointed out that arising out of the same accident, different claim petitions were filed, and against the award passed by the Tribunal, appeals are preferred by the Insurance Company. In those matters withdrawal of 50% to 100% of the deposited amount is granted by different orders of this Court. Considering the conspectus of the matter, I am of the considered view that the applicants are entitled to receive 70% of the deposited amount in this Court with accrued interest on furnishing undertaking.
