The learned court, while hearing the trial of a case between Bhakat Singh, plaintiff versus a leading insurance company, herein the defendant, had observed that the insurance company is tactically delaying the claim process pledging the suit to be dismissed on the grounds of non-prosecution, since the plaintiff had not appeared before the learned court even for a single instance after the law suit has been filed.
