F. A. O. No. 324 of 2009 (O&M) 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Case No. : F. A. O. No. 324 of 2009 (O&M) Date of Decision : April 30, 2009 Mahabir Parshad Sharma .... Appellant Vs. Khub Chand alias Khuba and others .... Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE L. N. MITTAL * * * Present : Mr. Amit Singla, Advocate for the appellant. * * * L. N. MITTAL, J. (Oral) : C. M. No. 1313-C-II of 2009 : For the reasons mentioned in the application, which is accompanied by affidavit, delay of 884 days in re-filing the appeal is condoned. Main Appeal : This is appeal by claimant Mahabir Parshad Sharma for enhancement of compensation awarded by learned Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Hisar vide impugned judgment/Award dated 17.01.2006 for injuries suffered by the claimant in motor vehicular accident. Perusal of the impugned Award reveals that according to X-ray report Ex.P-6, there was no fracture. The claimant thus suffered only simple injury. The claimant produced disability certificate of 5% disability, for F. A. O. No. 324 of 2009 (O&M) 2 which a sum of Rs.10,000/- has been awarded. In addition to it, a sum of Rs.3,500/- towards medical expenses, Rs.2,500/- towards special diet and Rs.1,000/- on account of simple injury has been awarded. Thus, a total sum of Rs.17,000/- as compensation has been awarded by the Tribunal. Learned counsel for the appellant is unable to point out as to how the compensation amount is inadequate. X-ray report reveal that there was no fracture. Disability certificate was also not proved by examining any doctor. Since there was no fracture, it is also doubtful if the alleged disability occurred out of the simple injury suffered in the accident. The compensation amount is not inadequate in any manner. In view of the aforesaid, the appeal is devoid of merit and is accordingly dismissed. April 30, 2009 ( L. N. MITTAL ) monika JUDGE
