To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Present: Mr.Vivek Singal,Advocate for the petitioner **** RAKESH KUMAR GARG J.(ORAL): This revision petition has been filed by the Insurance Company against the impugned Award dated 29.04.2010 passed by Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Bhiwani in MACT No.100 of 2007, whereby respondent No.1 has been granted Rs.5000/- as compensation for the injuries suffered by him in a motor vehicular accident caused due to the negligence of Bhupinder Singh,driver of offending vehicle No. HR- 63B/0526 which was insured with the petitioner-Company. Learned counsel for the petitioner-Company has vehemently argued that findings of the Tribunal on the issue of liability of the Insurance Company have been wrongly decided as it is well settled that in the case of a fake licence, even if it is renewed, the Insurance Company is not liable to pay any compensation. Without going into the legality of the argument raised, I am Civil Revision No.5161 of 2010(O & M) 2 not inclined to invoke my jurisdiction under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, in the present case, as the amount in question is only a meager sum of Rs.5000/- which is admittedly even lessor than the amount spent by the petitioner-Company in filing this petition. However, it is made clear that it will be open to the Insurance Company to challenge the aforesaid findings with regard to its liability in the connected case and the decision of this case, will not come in their way. Dismissed. (RAKESH KUMAR GARG) JUDGE 17.08.2010 neenu
