RAJU SINGH Vs. RAM SINGH OTHERS

JUDGEMENT

(1.) HEARD learned counsel for the parties and perused the record as well as the award of the learned Tribunal.

(2.) THIS miscellaneous appeal, under Section 173 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, has been filed by the claimant-injured, who suffered injuries in a motor accident, which occurred on 15.08.1998, before the learned Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Jaipur City, Jaipur, wherein the learned Tribunal determined the compensation amount of Rs.82,000/-.

(3.) I have considered the rival submissions and perused the judgment of the Honourable Supreme Court, quoted here-in-above. So far as the claim of the appellant is concerned, I am of the view that the learned Tribunal committed a serious error of law after having held the present case to be a case of composite negligence for awarding only 50% of the amount to the claimant-appellant.
