Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-17-2003

Reported in: III(2003)ACC455

ORDERUma Nath Singh, J.1. This misc. appeal impugns an award dated 21.7.1998 passed by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Dabra, Gwalior in Claim Case No. 21/1996 allowing a claim of the parents of the deceased only to the extent of Rs. 70,000/-.2. It is said that on 28.1.1996 at about 5.30 p.m. when deceased was going with her maternal uncle Prem Dutt on Moped to some place, she was crushed to death by the offending vehicle being Bus No. MP 07.B.8386. It is said that the deceased was only aged about 10 years at the time of accident and she hailed from a cultivator family. She was studying in Class IV and the materials on record do not show that the family had a progressive background of female education or service. Thus, had the deceased been alive, she would have been groomed only for marriage.3. The compensation amount is challenged on a ground of being low and is sought to be enhanced to Rs. 1,00,000/-.

M.P. State Electricity Board and anr. Vs. Smt. Kamla Sharma and ors.

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-16-2003

Reported in: AIR2004MP57; 2003(3)MPHT434; 2003(4)MPLJ233

ORDERUma Nath Singh, J.1. This civil revision calls in question an order dated 24-2-2003 in Civil Suit No. 69-A/2002 passed by learned 9th Civil Judge, Class-I, Gwalior, rejecting the preliminary objections raised by the applicant/defendant to the valuation of the suit.2. It is said that the non-applicants filed a suit for declaration and permanent injunction before the Trial Court and paid a total Court-fee of Rs. 240.00 on valuation of the suit. As the question of Court fee pertains to jurisdiction and thus goes to the roots of the matter, the applicant raised certain preliminary objections. It is urged that learned Judge without going into merits of the issue has rejected the plea. Now the judgment is assailed mainly on the ground that the second relief being a prayer for permanent injunction is consequential, therefore, the non-applicants ought to have paid ad valorem Court fee on valuation amount of Rs. 36,000.00. In support of the contention, learned Counsel for the applicant has...

Rahnuma @ Lalli Vs. Prahalad Das Gupta and ors.

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-16-2003

Reported in: I(2004)ACC208

ORDERUma Nath Singh, J.1. This appeal has been preferred against an order of Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Sheopurkalan in Claim Case No. 14/1996 dated 24.12.1998 rejecting the application for interim award under Section 140 of the Motor Vehicles Act.2. From the impugned order, and the rival submissions, it appears that the interim compensation has been denied on the sole ground that the medical certificate placed on record does not disclose in clear terms the extent of disability said to have been suffered in the accident. The claim case is awaiting final adjudication and the claimant has not been paid any interim award for the aforesaid reason, although she is said to have been incurring heavy expenses for her treatment.3. Under the circumstances the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal is directed to refer the victim/claimant to a duty constituted Medical Board within two weeks from receipt of a copy of this order to find out the extent of disability and then consider awarding an interi...

For the death of a Sanskrit scholar aged about 59 years, 7th Additional Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Indore in Claim Case No. 403 of 1996 has awarded Rs. 70,000 to his widow. The Tribunal found that the other claimants who are major sons of the deceased were not dependent upon him and, therefore, were not entitled to receive any compensation.2. The widow along with major sons, have preferred this appeal for enhancement of the compensation.3. It is not disputed before us that deceased died on account of a road accident which took place on 31.7.1996 while he was travelling in a M.P.S.R.T.C. bus from Dhamnod to Indore, a truck bearing the registration No. MP-K 7479 collided with the bus.
