(2.) Learned Claims Tribunal in the claim petition filed by the appellant gave finding that on the basis of injuries and 1medical evidence, in which, 51.3% permanent disability was declared, therefore, the the injured is entitled to compensation of Rs.4,06,200/-. Learned counsel for the appellant submits that the award impugned is erroneous because as per the evidence produced by the claimant no such claim can be awarded, therefore, the award impugned may be quashed.
