Quick Summary: A legal dispute between Bharti Axa General Insurance and the Katepaga family was resolved by the Lok Adalat on September 13, 2025, without any extra costs.

The People Involved

The case was between Bharti Axa General Insurance Company Ltd, represented by their Claims Manager in Hyderabad, and several members of the Katepaga family: Katepaga Akkamma, Katepaga Baia Krishna, Boya Venkateshwarlu, and Chakali Suresh, who are from different parts of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.

Agreement Reached

Judge C.V. Bhaskar Reddy was in charge of the case, MACMA No.526 of 2019. The case was sent to the Lok Adalat, which is a place where people can settle disagreements without going to a regular court.

"On 13.09.2025, the matter was settled before the Lok Adalat and an award was passed."

This means Bharti Axa General Insurance and the Katepaga family came to an agreement outside of the usual court process.

End of the Case

The case was officially closed on October 27, 2025, according to the Lok Adalat's decision. Judge Reddy ordered that any unfinished paperwork related to the case be wrapped up, and no extra costs were charged to either side.

The court staff was told to attach the Lok Adalat agreement to the official record, making sure all the necessary steps were completed.
