No.5294 of 2005 Amru. ............... Appellant Versus Ajmat Khan and others. ................ Respondents Date of Decision: 28.8.2006 CORAM : Hon'ble Mr.Justice Uma Nath Singh Hon'ble Mr.Justice Mahesh Grover .... Present: Shri Vikas Kumar, Advocate for the appellants. .... Mahesh Grover,J. By this judgment, we are disposing of F.A.O. Nos.5293 and 5294 of 2005 preferred by the claimants-appellants assailing the common award dated 7.3.2005 passed in M.V.A. Petition nos. 123 and 206 of 2003 whereby a sum of Rs.2500/- each has been awarded on account of injuries suffered by them in a motor vehicular accident which occurred due to rash and negligent driving of offending vehicle bearing registration no. RJ-02/ F.A.O. No.5293 of 2005 -2- ... G-7267 by respondent no.1. Shri Vikas Kumar contended that the compensation of Rs.2500/- awarded to each of the appellants is inadequate and it may be enhanced suitably keeping in view the injuries and mental agony suffered by them. We have thoughtfully considered the contention of the learned counsel for the appellants and perused the impugned award. The appellants had suffered minor injuries in the said accident. Although they had deposed in their testimony before the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Faridabad that Rs.30,000/- and Rs.20/25,000/-, respectively, were spent by them on their treatment, but they failed to substantiate their claim by producing bills/ cash memos in support thereof. There is no evidence of any serious injury having been suffered by the appellants. Therefore, in our view, the compensation of Rs.2500/- awarded to each of the appellants is just and adequate. Consequently, we do not find any ground to interfere with the impugned award and the appeals are dismissed being devoid of any merit.
