None for the respondents. **** AJAY KUMAR MITTAL, J.(Oral) The petitioner in this revision petition has impugned the award dated 2.9.2006 passed by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Ambala (hereinafter referred to as “the Tribunal”) whereby an award of Rs.5,000/- has been passed in favour of respondent No.2-claimant-Shubham Bindra and against petitioner Nos.1 and 2 on account of the injuries received by him in the vehicular accident which took place on 15.10.2006 between the truck bearing registration No.HR-08-5977 and scooter No.UP-93-9550. The Tribunal after recording a finding that there was composite negligence on the part of Rajinder Kumar, owner-driver of the truck No.HR- 08-5977 and Rakesh Kumar who was driving scooter No.UP-93-9550, awarded a sum of Rs.5,000/- to Shubham Bindra who was a pillion rider on the scooter. The Tribunal further recorded that it being a case of joint tort- feasors, the claimant was entitled to take recourse to recover the amount of compensation against joint tort-feasors and, therefore, the amount cannot be reduced to the extent of liability of petitioner No.3 only. Civil Revision No.6764 of 2008 2 No illegality or perversity could be pointed out in the findings recorded by the Tribunal which may warrant interference by this Court in exercise of its revisional jurisdiction. Accordingly, there is no merit in the present revision petition and the same is hereby dismissed. August 05, 2009 (AJAY KUMAR MITTAL) seema JUDGE
