1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JAIPUR BENCH, JAIPUR O R D E R S.B. Civil Miscellaneous Appeal No.690 of 2001. Gopal son of late Shri Nathu Ram VERSUS Shri Virendra Kumar son of Shri Balveer Singh & Others Date of Order :::: 10/11/2009 Hon'ble Mr. Justice Dalip Singh Mr. K.N. Tiwari, Counsel for the Appellant Mr. Paresh Choudhary, Mr. Hemant Kumar Sharma, Counsel for the Respondent No.3 *** By the Court : Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the award of the learned Tribunal. This claim petition has been preferred by the claimant - Gopal, who at the time of accident, which took place on 06.02.1995, was 10-years of age. He met with an accident, involving the vehicle owned by the respondent No.2 (Bhom Singh) and was being driven by the respondent No.1 (Virendra Kumar). The said vehicle bearing No.HNG 3965 was insured with the respondent No.3 – insurance company on the date of the accident. As a result of the accident, the claimant Gopal 2 suffered as many as four injuries, which are described in the injury report (Exhibit-7), which resulted among others amputation of the left arm of the appellant - Gopal, above the elbow. The learned Tribunal has awarded compensation to the appellant of Rs.3,40,439/- in all with interest @ 9% per annum with effect from the date of filing of the claim i.e. 07.03.1995 till the date of its realization i.e. for a period of about six years. Apart from this, the appellant also suffered injuries on the head on the right parietal region, including abrasion on the left side of the face and the left leg, ankle and toes. The submission of the learned counsel for the appellant is that while granting compensation the learned Tribunal has taken into consideration primarily the injuries resulting in the amputation of the left hand above the elbow and has ignored the other three injuries suffered by the appellant. Learned counsel for the appellant drew the attention of the Court to the findings on Issue No.4, wherein while taking note of the fact that the appellant suffered as many as four injuries, the learned Tribunal has awarded only a meager amount of Rs.8000/-, as compensation for the aforesaid injuries and has only taken into consideration the injury of amputation of the left hand while determining the compensation amount. Learned counsel appearing for the respondent No.3 - insurance company does not dispute the fact that an amount of Rs.8000/- alone has been awarded, so far as the other 3 injuries are concerned, he submits that the injuries being simple in nature the amount awarded is sufficient. I have considered the aforesaid submissions and have taken into consideration the amount of compensation, which has been awarded in all of Rs.3,40,439/- with interest @ 9% per annum from the date of filing of the claim. So far as the simple injuries are concerned under the Schedule itself, it has been prescribed that the compensation of Rs.1000/- is to be awarded. In the present case, an amount of Rs.8000/- has been awarded by the learned Tribunal. In view of the above, I find no reason to interfere with the award. Consequently, the miscellaneous appeal stands dismissed as aforesaid. No order as to costs. (Dalip Singh), J. ashok/
