FAO No.1008 of 1993 1 IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. FAO No.1008 of 1993 Date of decision: 10.12.2008 Smt. Shama ...Appellant Versus Jagdish constable & another ...Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr. H.N. Mehtani, Advocate, for the appellant. Mr. Kulvir Narwal, Addl. A.G. Haryana. Rajan Gupta, J. This appeal has been filed by the appellant for enhancement of compensation. The appellant filed a claim petition before the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Sonepat claiming compensation on account of the injuries suffered by her on 26.08.1990 in an accident which took place due to rash and negligent driving of Gypsy bearing registration No. HYS-7238 owned by Government of Haryana, driven by Jagdish, driver of the said Gypsy. The Tribunal held that the appellant is entitled to a sum of Rs.20,000/- for the injuries suffered by her in the accident. The appellant while appearing as PW-4, stated that she remained admitted in Karnal Hospital from 28.8.1990 to 26.9.1990. She claimed that she has spent Rs.20,000/- on her treatment, Rs.20,000/- on special diet and also FAO No.1008 of 1993 2 suffered pain and agony. However, this was not in conformity with the statement of her husband N.D. Madan as regards special diet. Except her bald statement, there is no other evidence to prove the claim of the appellant. She could not produce any medical bills on the record of the learned Tribunal. Her husband N.D. Madan has, however, stated in his statement that a sum of Rs.3500/- was reimbursed on account of the injuries suffered by the appellant. Learned counsel for the appellant has argued that it is a case of enhancement as the appellant has to spend for special diet etc. and she has also remained hospitalized. But, I do not find any force in his argument. There is no evidence on record to support the contention of the counsel. The claimant has not suffered any permanent disability. In view of the above, I do not find it a fit case for interference in appeal. The appeal is, therefore, dismissed. (RAJAN GUPTA) JUDGE December 10, 2008 'rajpal'
