NO. 1370 OF 2009 = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 8th day of February, 2010. J U D G M E N T This appeal is preferred against the award of the Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Kozhikode in O.P.(MV)1933/04 whereby the claimant has been awarded a compensation of Rs.3,000/-. It is against that decision the claimant has come up in appeal. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the appellant as well as the insurance company. What is sustained by the claimant is a traumatic myalgia which is nothing but a feel of pain which occurs any where when one undergoes an accident. No serious handicap or deformities are seen anywhere and a mere inpatient treatment for four days will not improve the claim made by him. The Tribunal has dealt with the case in the way in which it has to be dealt with and awarded a just and reasonable compensation. Therefore the appeal lacks merit and the same is dismissed. M.N.
