  2. \n

The State Government shall make all possible efforts to trace the legal heirs\/family members of the missing persons. The Committee shall monitor this exercise. The Committee shall assist the legal representatives of the missing persons to complete the procedural formalities.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    The State Government shall also submit to the Committee the record relating to compensation paid in terms of the Annexure to the First Government Resolution as well as in terms of the Second Government Resolution by incorporating the specific dates on which the compensation was actually paid to the persons entitled to it.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. \n

    The State Government shall pay compensation of Rs.2 lakhs to the legal heirs of the missing persons traced out hereafter, with interest at the rate of 9% per annum from 22-01-1999 i.e. from the expiry of the period of six months from the date of the second Government Resolution, till actual payment.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  5. \n

    To those who were paid compensation after the expiry of the period of six months from the date of the applicable Government Resolution, the State Government shall pay interest at the rate of 9% per annum on the amount of the compensation payable from the expiry of the period of six months from the date of the applicable Government Resolution till the date of payment.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  6. \n
