Following a compensation plea filed by head constable G Naserbasha, Judicial Magistrate Ramkrishnan yesterday directed the state corporation to give Rs 45.85 lakh before one month or otherwise interest should be given at a rate of 7.5 per cent per year from the date of filing of application.
Naserbasha was returning home after duty on his two-wheeler when the bus rammed into it on August 19,2009 at Ammapet Thathampatty here. His spinal cord was broken in the accident.
