3.Mr.R.Nalliyappan, learned counsel appearing for the appellant would submit that on 25.12.2016 at about 8.00 a.m., while the deceased Srinivasan was working as a Driver at Miraj Rural Police Limit, Sangli District, Maharastra State, suffered from severe chest pain and headache and he was taken to the Natural Hospital for first aid and then he was shifted to Civil Hospital, Miraj and on check up by the Duty Doctor, he was declared dead. Learned counsel for the appellant would further submit that since the deceased died during the course of the employment, the appellant, who was the second wife of the deceased, filed a petition under Section 10 of the Workmen's Compensation Act claiming compensation before the Commissioner for Employees Compensation, Coonoor. But the same was wrongly dismissed on the ground that 'Pulmonary Thromboembolism' is the cause of death of the deceased. Continuing his argument, learned counsel for the appellant would submit that when the Post Mortem Certificate No.683/2016 dated 25.12.2016 issued by the Miraj, Government Medical College Hospital shows that the deceased died due to pulmonary thromobeombolism only during the course of his employment, the Commissioner has wrongly proceeded and dismissed the claim petition filed by the appellant. Therefore, the order passed by the Commissioner is liable to be set aside.
