Konidala Jaya Bharati and anr. Vs. A. Chokkalingam and anr.

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Sep-23-1996

Reported in: 1997(1)ALT688

Lingaraja Rath, J.1. I have gone through the judgment prepared by my learned brother Justice B.S. Raikote, pains taking. While I partly agree with my learned brother's views of the owner of the vehicle being a person aggrieved in the circumstances, yet I would make some independent considerations as I found myself unable to agree with all the discussions made.2. The substantial question arising for consideration is whether in terms of Section 110-D of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1939 (hereinafter referred to as 'the Act'), the owner of the vehicle, when the award amount is covered by the policy, can be regarded as a 'person aggrieved'' to maintain an appeal in the High Court. It is not in doubt that the owner is a person aggrieved when the award amount is more than that covered in the policy. Similarly, when the award amount is less than the policy amount and the claimant prefers appeal claiming enhancement but the owner has preferred no appeal, the owner is a necessary respondent in whose...
