ORIENTAL INSURANCE COMPANY LIMITED, through its Branch Manager, Branch Office at 1st Floor, Bank More, P.S. Town, Distt./ Town Dhanbad ………… Respondents. 12 13.07.2010 Heard learned counsel for the appellant and learned counsel representing respondent no. 7, Oriental Insurance Company Limited. None appeared for other respondents. This appeal has been preferred against order dated 16.1.2007, passed in Motor Vehicles Accident Case No. 20 of 1999/51 of 2006, from the court of Additional District Judge, Fast Track Court-V-cum-Claim Tribunal, Aurangabad. By way of indemnifying compensation under Section 149 of the Motor Vehicle Act, finding the liability to pay compensation upon the appellant as well as respondent no. 7, directed both of them to pay a sum of Rs. 25,000/- (Twenty 2 Five Thousand). The main contention of the appellant is that the impugned order was passed by a Court, having no jurisdiction. No doubt, initially, there was a decision of this Court to this effect, but now, in view of Division Bench decision of this Court in a case, Branch Manager, United India Insurance Co. Ltd. & Others Vs. Maya Devi & Others, reported in 2010(2) PLJR 754. The Presiding Officer of Fast Track Court are equally entitled to deal with all such cases, moreover, as pointed out respondent no. 7 has already complied the order. In view of the facts and circumstances, stated above, fining no merit in this appeal, it is hereby dismissed. Simultaneously, the points if any against the liability raised by the insurer, it may be adjudicated upon by framing issue and in case decided, in view of insurer, he shall have right of recovery against the real person. The statutory amount of Rs. 25,000/- (Twenty Five Thousand), deposited with this appeal shall be remitted to the court below, through demand draft, in the name of award holder towards payment of compensation.
