About this listen

Who can claim compensation when a loved one dies in a road accident? In this episode, we explore the Supreme Court’s pivotal ruling in Sadhana Tomar v. Ashok Khushwah, where it broadened the definition of "legal representative" to ensure dependents like parents and siblings aren’t left out. We break down how this judgment brings compassion and fairness to motor accident claims—and why it matters to every Indian family.
