ORDER1. Heard the counsel for the parties.2. A young man of 34 years employed in Central Coalfield Limited died in a motor vehicle accident. At the relevant time he was getting gross salary of Rs. 9000/-. The Claims Tribunal awarded compensation of Rs. 12,45,000/-.3. The appellant-Insurance Company has filed this appeal challenging only the quantum of compensation awarded by the Claims Tribunal.4. At the very outset we are of the view that the Insurance Company cannot assail the award only on the ground of quantum of compensation. In this connection reference may be made to a decision in the case of Chinnama George v. N.K. Raju 2000 ACJ 777 (SC), wherein it was held that if none of the conditions as contained in Sub-section (2) of Section 149 exists for the insurer to avoid the liability, the insurer is legally bound to satisfy the award and the insurer cannot be a person aggrieved by the award.

Bal Sakha Vs. State of Jharkhand and ors.

Court: Jharkhand

Decided on: Nov-09-2006

Reported in: [2007(3)JCR111(Jhr)]

ORDERPermod Kohli, J.1. Status report has been filed. On perusal of the status report, it is very unfortunate to see that number of inmates presently staying in the Homes is 78 and 241 in Ranchi and Deoghar respectively even though the accommodation capacity of the Homes is 50 each.2. In our view, the respondents must make immediate arrangement to see that all the persons are accommodated in a proper place. Before that, it is noticed that only seven Boards have been constituted to deal with juvenile cases in seven Boards (in seven districts) and Boards have not been constituted for all the districts of the State.3. In that view of the matter, it would be appropriate to direct the Government to issue notification as per Section 4 of the Act conferring powers to the existing Boards to be exercised by them for a group of districts all over the State of Jharkhand. The Government may consider this as urgent one and issue notification within two weeks from today to enable the Boards to dispo...
