A.O. No. 430/2008 UHon’ble B.C. Kandpal, J. Heard Mr. P.S. Uniyal, holding brief of Mr. Seema Sharma, learned counsel for the appellant and perused the impugned judgment and award dated 25-9- 2008, passed by M.A.C.T./ District Judge, Haridwar in MACT Case No. 142/2005, Baru Singh and another Vs. Noor Alam and 2 others. Perusal of impugned award shows that deceased Mange Ram was unmarried at the time of his death. His father Baru Singh (claimant No.1) had already died during the pendency of claim petition and the only legal heir of the deceased remains Km. Mangi, sister of the deceased, who is entitled to get the total amount of compensation awarded by the tribunal. The Tribunal after deducting 1/3Prd P towards personal expenses of the deceased, has taken the annual dependency as Rs. 19,200/- after fixing monthly wages of the deceased as Rs. 2,400/-. The deceased was 28 years of age and a multiplier of 10 was adopted. Therefore the learned Tribunal has computed the total dependency of Rs. 19,200/- X 10= Rs. 1,92,000/-. The Tribunal further awarded Rs. 2,000/- towards funeral expenses. This fact is there that Km. Mangi after attaining the age of majority, will be married, therefore, in the above facts and circumstances of the case, I do not find any illegality and infirmity in the impugned award and the same is liable to be confirmed. The appeal lacks merit and is accordingly dismissed in limine. Dated: 4-12-2008 (B.C. Kandpal, J.) ISB
