claim for compensation. The High Court directed the Railways to pay ₹4 lakh with 7% interest, stating that the total compensation to the family should not be less than ₹8 lakh. The woman and her sister mistakenly boarded the Tuticorin Express instead of the Tirupati Passenger bound for Ashokpur/Mysuru. Realizing their mistake after the train started moving, the woman attempted to get off the train, fell on the platform, and sustained severe injuries. She died during treatment. The Railway Claims Tribunal had dismissed the family's claim, citing the woman's failure to use other options like continuing her journey to the next station or pulling the alarm chain. The Tribunal had ruled that the woman's death was a self-inflicted injury under Section 124-A of the Indian Railways Act. The Karnataka High Court disagreed with the Tribunal's interpretation and stated that the woman's death was due to an unfortunate incident. The judge criticized the Tribunal's reliance on Section 124-A, arguing it was wrongly applied in this case.

Jayamma aur unki bahan Ratnamma galti se Ashokpur/Mysuru jaane wali Tirupati Passenger ki jagah Tuticorin Express mein chad gayi thi. Train chalne par unhen apni galti ka ehsaas hua. Train se utarne ki koshish mein Jayamma platform par gir padi aur unhen gambhir chot lag gayi. Unka upchar ke doran death ho gaya tha. Railway Claims Tribunal ne Jayamma dwara agle station tak yaatra jaari rakhne athava alarm chain khinchne jaise maujood anya vikalpon ka prayog nahin karne ke karan parivar ki muavze ki maang wali yachika kharij kar di thi. Nayaayalayan ne Jayamma ki maut ko Bharatiya Railway Adhiniyam ki dhara 124-A ke tahat khud ko pahunchai chot mana tha. Karnataka High Court ke Justice HP Sandesh Nayaayalayan ki vyakhya se asahmat the. Unhone kaha ki Jayamma ki maut apraiy ghatna ke karan hui. Nyaaayadhees ne Nayaayalayan ki dhara 124-A par nirbharta ki aalochna ki aur kaha ki is maamle mein ise galat lagaya gaya.
