Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jan-20-2003

Reported in: 2004ACJ865; AIR2003All245; 2003(2)AWC1161b

S.P. Srivastava, A.C.J.1. I have had the opportunity to go through the judgment in draft prepared by my learned brother, Ashok Bhushan, J. I agree that this writ petition under Article 227 of the Constitution of India deserves to be dismissed. However, I would like to add a few words.2. The legislative policy underlying the various provisions of the Motor Vehicles Act clearly indicates that the right to appeal contemplated under Section 173 of the said Act, so far as the insurer is concerned, is not an absolute right but has been made subject to certain conditions. The statute does not recognise or provide for any remedy to an insurer against an award, if the requisite conditions are not satisfied. In its decision in the case of National Insurance Co. Ltd., Chandigarh v. Nicolletta Rohtagi and Ors. JT 2002 (7) SC 251, the Apex Court had clearly indicated that in the absence of the grant of permission envisaged under Section 170 of the Motor Vehicles Act, it is not open to an insurer to...
