THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.C.BHANU CIVIL MISCELLANEOUS APPEAL No. 702 of 2006 JUDGMENT : 1. This appeal has been preferred by the appellant/claimant challenging the order dated 04.05.2006 in O.A.A. No.478 of 2005 on the file of the Railway Claims Tribunal, Secunderabad Bench at Secunderabad, whereunder and whereby the claim application filed by the appellant/claimant was allowed in part granting compensation of Rs.10,000/-. 2. The appellant/claimant filed the O.A.A. claiming compensation for the injuries sustained by him while traveling by Train No.415-Delta Passenger from Tenali to Secunderabad when it was involved in an accident between Valigonda and Ramannapet in the early morning of 29.10.2005. 3. The respondent/railways admitted that name of the appellant was appearing in the list of persons injured in the accident prepared by the railway administration and stated that the victim was paid an ex gratia of Rs.5,000/- for the simple injuries sustained by him. 4. The Claims Tribunal, upon appreciation of the evidence on record, granted compensation of Rs.10,000/- holding that since the injuries sustained by the claimant are unscheduled injuries and that he must have suffered great mental shock and pain due to unfortunate train accident. Dissatisfied by the quantum of compensation, the present appeal is filed by the appellant/claimant for enhancement. 5. Heard both sides. 6. The factual matrix is not in dispute. It is not in dispute that the claimant was traveling in the passenger train bearing No.415-Delta Passenger from Tenali to Secunderabad on the fateful day and as a result of the untoward incident i.e.train accident, he sustained simple injuries. The claimant sustained abrasions in the incident. The wound certificate filed by the claimant does not indicate that he received major injuries. Except producing a document which shows that he underwent some treatment as an out-patient, no certificate issued by the competent authority showing the nature or extent of disability, is fled by the claimant. It is also not in dispute that the railway administration paid ex gratia of Rs.5,000/- to the claimant. Considering these aspects, the Claims Tribunal rightly granted the compensation, and it is not a fit case to enhance the compensation in the absence of any evidence. 7. The appeal is devoid of merit and is, accordingly, dismissed. No costs. --------------------- 22.3.2011 (K.C.Bhanu, J.)
