Appellant VERSUS Satyawan and others ... Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE A.N.JINDAL Present: Mr.S.N.Pilania, Advocate for the appellant. Mr.Ashwani Talwar, Advocate for the respondent – Insurance Company. A.N.JINDAL, J.- This appeal for enhancement of compensation by the injured/claimant Ram Piari (herein referred as the claimant) is against the award dated 3.6.2008, passed by Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Jind (herein referred as `the Tribunal'), awarding compensation to the tune of Rs.54627/- along with interest @ 7.5% per annum, on account of the injuries suffered by her in a motor vehicle accident on 5.3.2006. Heard. In the instant case, though the claimant has alleged that she received two fractures in her back bone as also a head injury, but neither any doctor has been examined to prove the injuries, nor any medical record was proved on record in order to substantiate her claim. However, the FAO No.2783 of 2009(O&M) [ 2 ] Tribunal after taking into consideration the medical bills (Ex.P3 to P23) worth Rs.9627/- towards purchase of medicines awarded this total sum on account of the expenses incurred on purchase of medicines. Besides, on the basis of the Disability Certificate (Mark-D) revealing the disability to the extent of 20%, the Tribunal has awarded a sum of Rs.40,000/- towards disability. In additional to it, Rs.5000/- has also been awarded on account of pain and suffering, transportation, etc, and in this way, a total compensation to the tune of Rs.54627/- has been awarded to the claimant. The compensation, so awarded by the Tribunal after considering the entire evidence led by the claimant, appears to be adequate and no enhancement is required. Thus, the appeal fails and is hereby dismissed. January 15, 2010 ( A.N.JINDAL ) `gian' JUDGE
