In the High Court of Punjab and Haryana at Chandigarh F.A.O. No. 2152 of 2009 Date of decision: July 30, 2009 Krishan Kumar .. Appellant Vs. Gurvinder Singh and another .. Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice A.N. Jindal Present: Mr. Ashok Jindal, Advocate for the appellant. A.N. Jindal, J Notice of motion. On the asking of the Court, Ms. Vandana Malhotra, Advocate accepts notice on behalf of the Insurance Company. This is an appeal against the award dated 9.12.2008 passed by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Bathinda, whereby the claimant- appellant injured (herein referred as 'the claimant') was awarded compensation to the tune of Rs.55709/- for the injuries suffered by him on the right wrist. The company has never challenged the negligence nor liability by filing appeal. The claimant has lodged the protest by alleging that inadequate compensation has been awarded. Having perused the impugned award, the claimant was awarded a sum of Rs.26709/- for the medical bills; Rs.25,000/- for pain and sufferings; and Rs.4000/- for his admission in the hospital. The Tribunal has errored while awarding nothing for the attendant, special diet, transportation and loss of income. As such, keeping in view the pain and sufferings, the amount spent by him and the loss suffered by him, the amount of compensation is liable to be enhanced. Consequently, this appeal is partly allowed and the claimant would be entitled to receive Rs.15,000/- over and above the amount already awarded along with interest on the same terms as awarded by the Tribunal.
