THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY C.M.A.No.2584 of 2003 JUDGMENT: The appellant is the driver in the A.P.S.R.T.C. and he was working in the Sullurpet Depot in 1996. He filed O.P.No.579 of 1998 before the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal-cum-I Additional District Judge, Nellore, claiming a sum of Rs.1,00,000/- as compensation. He pleaded that when he was proceeding on the bus on the National Highway, a car bearing No.TN-01-H-7368 owned by the 1st respondent and insured with the 2nd respondent came in a rash and negligent manner and dashed against the bus. He is said to have suffered injuries to the knee and that the same resulted in his being rendered unfit to function as Driver. The O.P. was opposed by the 2nd respondent. They pleaded that the accident in fact occurred on account of the rashness on the part of the appellant. Through its order, dated 22.10.2002, the Tribunal awarded a sum of Rs.25,000/- as compensation. The appellant seeks enhancement of the compensation. Heard the learned counsel for the parties. There is any amount of doubt as to the responsibility for the occurrence of accident. It is no doubt true that there was collision between the bus driven by the appellant on the one hand and the Maruti car owned by the 1st respondent on the other hand. The fact however remains that F.I.R. was registered against the appellant. A perusal of Ex.A.1 discloses that one of the inmates of the Maruti Car died and other persons sustained injuries. Further, it is very difficult to imagine that the driver of a bus would sustain injuries, when a Maruti car dashes against it. The appellant must, in fact be happy, for being awarded Rs.25,000/- as compensation. This Court is not inclined to entertain the appeal. Therefore, the C.M.A. is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. __________ 09.11.2011 JSU THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY C.M.A.No.2584 of 2003 Date: 09.11.2011 JSU
