Case No.98 of 2003. In the accident which is alleged to have taken placed on 24.7.2003, the Tribunal awarded a sum of Rs.73,000/- for the loss of a mare. The only contention raised by the learned counsel for the appellant is that the Tribunal has wrongly burdened the appellant with the entire liability except Rs.6,000/- which was fastened upon the insurance company.

FAO No. 2294 of 2006 (O&M) -2- There is thus no merit in this appeal which is accordingly dismissed. (MAHESH GROVER) JUDGE 30.10.2006 (UMA NATH SINGH) JUDGE dss
