Dear Asrovastava1975,
Injury or death due to accident arising out of and in the course employment, the master is liable. This is the universal law. Therefore, the family members of victims were entittled to get compensation.
The case is now time barred. But still it is advised to approach any good advocate. It is advised to approch the Central Labour Ministry. It is also advised to approach opposition leaders in Parliament. Families of all 58 victims unite if all the victims are Indian, the Government has to do some thing. The victims were employed by Indian Company and the accident took place in Bahrain cost, International Law also involves in this case.

Dear Friends,
since the Salary is around Rs.25000/- the company might have exempted this person from PF and also from ESI. The Service is 3 years and 6 months and he may not get the gratuity.
But he had died while working means, it would be better to lodge a complaint with near by police station and take necessary legal action against the criminal procedure.
Becaue many of these compnies try exploit the people and even their legal advisors go with them. This is my experience.
Thanks and Regards

Dear mmsmnk,
He was at a party organized by his company to celebrate the completion of concreting work at the Bahrain World Trade Centre, the boat was hired by his company which capsized (due to overload- this is another case for which caption of the boat and the owner were booked and caption was jailed for 3 years) so as per my understanding this was part of his job.

Dear Mr. Keshav Korgaonkar:
Would appreciate if you guide me how to take this further. His parents didn't make any claim at that time as they were in utter shock and we came to know about this recently during an informal chat with his mother. His father also passed away in September 2006. I feel this is her right to get compensated and it should not be held against her that she didn’t fill for compensation earlier. It was the duty of their Son’s employer also to take care of his ailing parents by adequately compensating for the loss of their child.
Total of 17 persons died in that accident including my Sister in Law
