 ORDER

At the outset, we would say that
procedure adopted by
the State Commission in not issuing notice to the petitioner before modifying
the order passed by the District Forum and enhancing the compensation is
totally unjustified. Without hearing the
petitioner, adverse order against it could not have been passed.

However, to avoid remand, we direct the Insurance Company to produce the
Survey Report on record. It would be
open to the complainant to file his reply.

Adjourned to 18th September, 2006 for direction.
