(1.) THE appellant-claimants are aggrieved by the award dated 23.3.2012 passed by the Additional District Judge (Fast Track) No.7, Jaipur Metropolitan and Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, whereby the learned Tribunal has rejected the claim petition filed by the appellants.

(2.) BRIEFLY the facts of the case are that according to the claimants, on 16.12.2002 Ladi Devi was walking on the correct side of the road while she was coming back home from bazar. However, a scooter being driven rashly and negligently, bearing registration No.RJ14-19M-3539, came and struck her. Consequently, she suffered injuries on her head. Initially the claim petition was filed by Ladi Devi herself, for the injuries suffered by her in the vehicular accident. However, during the pendency of the claim petition, she expired on 4.3.2005. Thereafter, her legal representatives were brought on record. In order to establish their case Bhura Ram alias Bhanwar Lal alias Bhonri Lal, and Sita Ram were examined as witnesses. The claimants also submitted twenty documents. On the other hand the respondents neither examined any witness, nor submitted any document. After going through the oral and documentary evidence, by award dated 23.3.2012, the learned Tribunal dismissed the claim petition. Hence this appeal before this Court.

(3.) HEARD the learned counsel, and perused the impugned award.
