S.B.CIVIL MISC. APPEAL NO.41/1997 (United India Insurance Co. vs. Ajaba and Ors.) DATE OF ORDER : 6/8/2009 HON'BLE DR.JUSTICE VINEET KOTHARI Mr.B.D.Purohit, for the appellant. This appeal of the Insurance company is directed against the award dated 26/7/1995 under Section 140 of the M.V.Act, whereby, the learned MACT, Jalore has awarded the claim of Rs.25,000/- on account of death of Uda ji in an accident which took place on 18/5/1987 between the Jeep No.RRT 4782 with another Jeep No.RJN 4149 in which the passengers travelling in the said jeep suffered injuries and Uda Ji died on the spot. In the present appeal, only the award under Section 140 of the Act is challenged. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and upon perusal of the record, this Court is satisfied that the said award of Rs.25,000/- is unassailable as the said amount is payable irrespective of the finding of fault on the part of tortfeasor, therefore, there is no force in the present appeal. Consequently the appeal is dismissed. Copy of this order be sent to opposite party. (DR.VINEET KOTHARI), J. item no.3 baweja/-
