Explain that the compensation will be given from the disaster management fund of the state.
Justice MR Shah said during the hearing on Monday that an amount of Rs 50,000 would be paid to the next of kin of the deceased and it would be more than the amount paid by the Center and the state under various philanthropic schemes.
