From the facts you are stated it is clear that a claim petition has been filed by the wife and children of the person who died claiming compensation. A claim petition need not necessarily be filed where accident occurred. You will have to defend the same. To give any further advice, the fact whether you had insurance for your vehicle and whether you had a valid driving licence is required to be ascertained.

In bother the cases u have appeared before the court. With regards to the motor accident case sec 166, u have to go to up and contest it and file your defence and with regards to the IPC case it will start in Goa court. For further info contact
