Vishwesha Tirtha Swami of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt, who was discharged from the Kasturba Hospital here on Friday two days after he undergone a surgical procedure for hernia, is back in Sri Krishna Mutt.

The 86-year-old seer who arrived on the mutt premises in a vehicle was later shifted to a wheelchair and then taken in a lift located at the Anna Brahma dining hall complex and from there to his room at the Badagu Malige, the administrative office complex of Sri Krishna Mutt/Temple.

Speaking to mediapersons, the seer said that normally doctors advised three months rest after such a surgical procedure. However, the doctors at the Kasturba Hospital had told him not to climb steps, not to walk too much and not to lift heavy things. But they had permitted him to participate in some daily activities, he said.

The seer praised the doctors of the hospital for the way in which they had given him medical treatment and also for the care given to him during his two-day stay there.

Raghuram Acharya, Dewan of Pejawar Mutt, told The Hindu that the doctors had allowed the seer to do his daily duties and participate in the programmes as the latter could not do without it. “He feels uneasy and unhealthy, if he does not do his daily duties,” he said.

Though the seer arrived at the temple around 3.30 p.m., he performed the Chamara Seve at the mantapa near the sanctum sanctorum at 7 p.m., he said.

According to Mr. Acharya, a total of 14 pujas are offered to Lord Krishna daily at the temple. The Paryaya seer has to perform the three important pujas — Jagara Puje at 5.30 a.m., Mahapuje at 9 a.m. and the Chamara Seve at 7 p.m.

Meanwhile, Vishwesha Tirtha read newspapers and other books at his room at the Badagu Malige, while also taking rest.

Mangaluru, May 21: The Supreme Court has awarded Rs 7.64 crore compensation to the next of kin of a man who was killed in a crash-landing of Air India Express Flight 812 from Dubai in Mangalore on May 22, 2010. The accident killed 158 out of 166 passengers on board.

The family of the 45-year-old Mahendra Kodkany, which include his wife, daughter and son, were earlier granted Rs 7.35 crore as compensation by National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC). This compensation will now get enhanced after adding 9 per cent interest per annum (on the amount yet to be paid), to be paid by Air India.

Kodkany was the regional director for the Middle East for a UAE-based company. The aircraft overshot the runway and went down a hillside and burst into flames.

A bench comprising Justices D.Y. Chandrachud and Ajay Rastogi said: "The total amount payable on account of the aforesaid heads works out to Rs 7,64,29,437. Interest at the rate of nine per cent per annum shall be paid on the same basis as has been awarded by the NCDRC. The balance, if any, that remains due and payable to the complainants, after giving due credit for the amount which has already been paid, shall be paid within a period of two months."

The apex court noted that in a claim for compensation arising out of the death of an employee, the income has to be assessed on the basis of the entitlement of the employee. The top court said: "We are unable to accept the reasons which weighed with the NCDRC in making a deduction of AED (UAE currency) 30,000 from the total CTC. Similarly, and for the same reason, we are unable to accept the submission of Air India that the transport allowance should be excluded. The bifurcation of the salary into diverse heads may be made by the employer for a variety of reasons."

The top court observed that the deceased was evidently, a confirmed employee of his employer. "We have come to the conclusion that thirty per cent should be allowed on account of future prospects", added the court.

The top court noted that if the amount which has been paid by Air India is in excess of the payable under the present judgement, "we direct under Article 142 of the Constitution (discretionary powers) that the excess shall not be recoverable from the claimants," said the court.
