FAO No.1760 of 2010 (O&M) -1- IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH FAO No.1760 of 2010 (O&M) Date of Decision. 03.03.2011 Rambir son of Kanwal Singh, aged 50 years r/o village Seria, Tehsil Beri, Distt. Jhajjar ......Appellant Versus Gurdeep Singh son of Jasbir Singh and others ....Respondents Present: Mr. Saurabh Dalal, Advocate for the appellants. CORAM:HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE K. KANNAN 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment ? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not ? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? -.- K. KANNAN J.(ORAL) 1. The appeal is for enhancement of claim for compensation for injuries suffered in a motor accident. The grievance about the assessment is that the Tribunal has not provided any compensation for medical expenses. While certain guess work would be possible in cases where medical bills are lost, if no explanation is given and when the Tribunal has chosen not to make any separate assessment for the same, I will find no reason to make an appraisal and make my own conjecture for awarding compensation for medical expenses. The Tribunal has awarded Rs.60,000/- for disability, which I would understand would factor also the issue of medical expenses. In any event, the pecuniary head of claim would require to be established as per the rules of evidence and if the Tribunal was not convinced for not giving appropriate evidence for the same, I shall not find a reason for FAO No.1760 of 2010 (O&M) -2- intervention for the same. 2. The award is confirmed and the appeal is dismissed. (K. KANNAN) JUDGE March 03, 2011 Pankaj*
