Dear Sir / Madam,
I presume A has produced the Will in the Court JMFC Class-1 and got the Succession Certificate to be entitled to get the compensation amount from the Railways. You should file your petition before the ADJ Court claiming the announced compensation amount plus interest @ 15% per annum from the date of death till date.
Regards,
