After the hearing of the case, the fifth additional district judge ordered the managing director of TSRTC to pay Rs 6, 14,630 as compensation to the petitioner including 7.5 percent interest from the date of filing the case.

As the RTC management failed to pay the said compensation the petitioner filed an execution petition in the court and sought to attach the bus bearing registration number: TS 04Z0260 lying at TSRTC bus depot, Burhanpuram in Khammam. The court has issued a fresh order for attaching the bus. Immadi Lakshminarayana appeared as counsel for the petitioner.
