They have been heard together and being disposed of with this common judgment. Apart from each case presenting-different considerations to assess the compensation, they involve a common simple but very important question, namely, how to assess the compensation in motor accident infant or child death cases. The plethora of precedents prevailing on the question have failed to provide consistency or the uniform guidelines for the Tribunals and the Courts to approach the matter with certainty or with absolute confidence. Therefore, in the nature of the arguments advanced by the learned advocates who are appearing in the batch of cases, namely, Sarvasri S. Hanumaiah, Prattipati Venkateswarlu, N. Subba Rao, M. Chandrasekhar Reddy, T. Bheemsen, K. Subba Rao, V. Tulasi Reddy, M. Ramaiah, C. Prabhakar Reddy, P. Sri Raghuram, O. Manohar Reddy, Y. V. Swamy, S. P...

B. Narayana Vs. Regional Transport Officer

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Jan-20-1998

Reported in: 1998(3)ALT828

P. Venkatarama Reddi, A.C.J.1. This writ petition has been filed questioning the demand notice date 18-12-1997 issued by the respondent calling upon the petitioner to pay a amount of Rs. 33,180/- towards the tax for quarter ending 31-3-1997 in respect of vehicle bearing registration No. KLN 423. The allegation is that the contract carriage No. KLN 423 was plied as stage carriage between Ieeja and Shantinagar.2. It is seen from the material papers filed that the petitioner submitted an elaborate explanation; but the respondent made a cryptic comment that the explanation 'is examined' and is not satisfactory. It gives us an impression that there was really no application of mind to the points raised in the explanation. The least that the respondent was expected to do was to advert to the points in the explanation and to pass a reasoned order. Merely characterising the explanation as not satisfactory is not what is expected of a quasi-judicial functionary who is entrusted with the power t...
