FAO No.1349 of 2009 [ 1 ] IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH ... FAO No.1349 of 2009 Decided on : July 08, 2009 Smt.Valsala ... Appellant VERSUS Raghubir Singh and others ... Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE A.N.JINDAL Present: Mr.Rohit Ahuja, Advocate for the Appellant. A.N.JINDAL, J.- This appeal has arisen out of the judgment dated 11.9.2008 passed by Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Faridabad, whereby, Valsala – claimant/appellant (herein referred as the claimant) was awarded compensation to the tune of Rs.6,19,558/- on the account of the injuries suffered by her in the accident, which took place on 18.3.2007. However, an enhancement in compensation has been sought by the appellant through the instant appeal. Claimant Valsala was forty-four years old. Her both legs were fractured and ultimately amputated, therefore, disability suffered by her is 100% and for this reason, she has been awarded compensation under the following heads:- FAO No.1349 of 2009 [ 2 ] Expenditure on artificial limb = Rs.2,61,800/- Loss of earnings = Rs.1,00,000/- Amount for Medical treatment = Rs.1,17,358/- Cost of Transportation = Rs.6,400/- Remuneration to attendant = Rs,30,000/- Loss of enjoyment of limb = Rs.50,000/- Amount spent on special diet = Rs.3,000/- On account of pain and sufferings = Rs.50,000/- Total compensation = Rs.6,19,558/- Though the normalcy in life of the claimant could not be returned, yet the compensation awarded by the Tribunal for pulling on her life appears to be quite adequate, fair and reasonable. All the aspects of the case have been examined and the evidence appears to have been appreciated in the right perspective. No grounds for enhancement are made out. Appeal dismissed.
