This belated appeal is filed for enhancement of compensation. However, after hearing counsel for the appellant and after going through the award, we do not find any merit in the case because for the relatively minor injuries i.e. injury to the tibula, petitioner got a fairly good award. We, therefore, decline to condone the delay and dismiss the delay condonation petition and consequently the appeal. C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR Judge C.K.ABDUL REHIM Judge pms
