STATEMENT OF FACTS
1) Himavarta is a country being surrounded with the mountains and valleys in
its territory boarders has all the time a threat from the other adjacent
countries so they make contracts with companies which prepares nuclear
weapons, etc.
2) Triggon Weaponries Ltd. Is a company known for making highly advanced
weapons, the company was also engaged in the project of manufacturing
Drones. The senior officials of the company on 16 May,2020 decided to test
the drone and so they sent it for as test run. For the first 3 hours, the drone
was used in the jungle then they used it in the nearby city.
3) when the drone was being tested in the city, the cells in it got overcharged
which resulted in its explosion, because it was being used at a very low
altitude, due to the explosion it caused fire in a dwelling house. A 7-year-old
boy named Rahul was stuck inside the house when it caught fire. Shyamala
Devi his mother when returned home from the store saw the house on fire
and rushed to rescue her child, but was stopped by the people.
4) She was shouting for help, then a man named Janardhan roaming there saw
that fire and rushed to rescue the child, an army Jawan was also arrived
there but he stopped as he saw Janardhan going inside because there was
not enough space for two people, but Janardhan got afraid and came back
without rescuing Rahul, then Army Jawan went inside but it was too late and
Rahul was dead. Doctors said that Rahul would have been saved few minutes
earlier, he would have been alive.
5) Shyamala Devi filed a Suit in Civil court and alleged that Triggon Weaponries
Ltd. is responsible for his son’s death. She also alleged that Janardhan is
also liable because if he would have saved or not opted for it her child would
have lived and claimed reliefs for the loss of her child.

appeal and set-aside the decision of the lower court.
