The Hon’ble High Court felt that the DSLSA would play a significant role in the settlement of accident cases. Thus, it has directed the Police, in FAO 842/2003 titled “Rajesh Tyagi & Ors. Vs. Jaibir Singh & Ors.”, that it would place a copy of the Accident Information Report alongwith the FIR not only before the Motor Accident Claims Tribunals but also before the DSLSA so that DSLSA can intervene whenever settlement was getting difficult and legal aid is being provided in the cases where it is required. As such, this Authority is dealing with such matters as per jurisdiction.
