IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. FAO No.7263 of 2011(O&M) Date of Decision: February 28, 2012 Satbir ... Appellant Versus Om Parkash Rana ... Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE NAWAB SINGH Present: Mr.Gaurav Singla, Advocate for the appellant. NAWAB SINGH J.(ORAL) By way of this appeal, Satbir – claimant/ injured has challenged the judgment dated June 07, 2011 passed by Commissioner under the Workmen's Compensation Act, 1923, Kurukshetra (for short `the Commissioner'), whereby, an amount of Rs.93,341/- was awarded to him, on account of injuries sustained by him on February 27, 2008 while working as agricultural labourer under the employment of Om Parkash Rana - respondent. 2. The sole contention of the counsel for the appellant is that the compensation has been awarded less than what it should have been. 3. The case of the appellant was that he was working as tractor driver and getting salary of Rs.4000/- per month. 4. There is no documentary evidence to show that the injured was working as a driver and earning Rs.4,000/- per month, except his own bald statement. Even driving license was not proved on record. In the accident, he suffered permanent disability to the extent of 20%. In these circumstances, the Commissioner treating him as a unskilled labourer, assessed his income at Rs.3586/- per month and applying the formula given in Section 4 of the Workmen's Compensation Act, 1923 determined the compensation at Rs.93,341/- (216.91 x 3586 x 60% x 20%), which in the opinion of this Court was rightly determined. 5. In view of this, no interference is called for in the impugned judgment. 6. Hence, the appeal is dismissed. February 28, 2012 ( NAWAB SINGH ) `gian' JUDGE
