CWP No 2389/2009 24.7.2009 Present: Mr. B.N. Mehta, Advocate for the Petitioner. Mr. Adarsh Sharma, counsel for respondents No. 1 and 2. The learned MACT has awarded a sum of Rs. 1.00 lakh to the petitioner. He preferred FAO No. 453/2005 for enhancement of the amount in this court. The matter was referred to monthly Lok Adalat, constituted by this Court. The matter was listed in the Lok Adalat on 21st April, 2007. The statements of Mr. Rajiv Gupta, Chief General Manager, HRTC and Mr. A.S. Mehta, vice counsel for the appellant were recorded. These statements are at page 26 of the paper book. The Lok Adalat passed the order on 21st April, 2007 to the following effect: “ The parties have effected compromise and as a result of compromise, award passed by learned MACT is modified and award amount is enhanced to Rs. 2.00,000/- from Rs. 1,00,000/- with 9% interest per annum from the date of petition inclusive of the amount, if any, already paid as interim relief, till realization. The appeal and cross objections are disposed of accordingly.” Once the petitioner has agreed for a sum of Rs.2,00,000/- before Lok Adalat, it is not open for him to assail the same by filing a writ petition. It is not the case of the petitioner that nobody had appeared on behalf of the petitioner before the Lok Adalat. Mr. A.S. Mehta, Advocated had appeared on behalf of the petitioner. We have gone through the pleadings. We are convinced that Rs.2,00,000/- have been rightly awarded. We will not exercise our discretionary jurisdiction in the matter. It is also not the case of the petitioner that compromise has been arrived at due to coercion or undue influence. Accordingly, there is no merit in the writ petition and the same is dismissed. ( R. B. Misra ), Judge. ( Rajiv Sharma) Judge. 24th July, 2009(K)
