IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JAIPUR BENCH JAIPUR JUDGMENT S.B. CIVIL MISC. APPEAL NO.810/2006 VIJAY KUMAR KHATOD V. CHANDA LAL & OTHERS DATE OF JUDGMENT :::: AUGUST 28, 2006 PRESENT HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE PREM SHANKER ASOPA Mr. Vinay Mathur, for the appellant BY THE COURT The instant appeal has been filed by the claimant for enhancement of compensation awarded by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Chomu, District Jaipur, vide its award dated 22.11.2005 in MAC Case No.412/2005 whereby compensation of Rs.40,000/- has been awarded. Brief facts of the case are that on 04.03.1998 the claimant and his friend were going by motor cycle No.RJ-14-12M-4982 from Khatod Ka Mohalla, Chomu towards Ravan Gate, Chomu. At about 9 p.m. when they reached near Renwal turn, Jeep No.RJ-23-C-1781 hit the motor cycle and as a result of the said accident, the appellant suffered injuries. The appellant submitted claim petition before the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Chomu for compensation amounting to Rs.7,50,000/-. The claimant submitted that his monthly income was Rs.6,362/- and on account of the injuries suffered by him, he suffered loss of income. On the basis of Ex.12, the M.A.C.T. held that on account of the accident, the claimant suffered 15.05% permanent disability. The M.A.C.T. awarded lump sum amount of Rs.10,000/- for nutritious food and expenses for coming to the Hospital; and Rs.30,000/- on account of physical pain, mental agony and loss of working capacity. Thus, in all a sum of Rs.40,000/- has been awarded as compensation. Submission of the learned counsel for the appellant is that future prospects and future loss of income of the claimant has not been taken into consideration by the M.A.C.T. I have heard learned counsel for the appellant and perused the impugned Award. In my view, no future loss of income will be caused to the claimant as he is still working. As regards other heads, compensation has rightly been assessed and awarded. The compensation amounting to Rs.40,000/- awarded by the Tribunal is just, legal and proper and no interference is called for in this appeal. The appeal fails and is dismissed.
