Mr.RK Charan, for the appellant. - - - - - Heard learned counsel for the appellant. This appeal has been preferred by the appellant for enhancement of the compensation awarded by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Bhilwara in MACT Case No.333/2004 vide judgment and award dated 3.2.2005. The only grievance of the appellant is that he has been awarded less compensation on account of the injuries suffered by her in the accident. According to learned counsel for the appellant, the appellant suffered injuries in leg and the doctor certified that the appellant shall be disabled permanently to the extent of 10%. In view of the above, the tribunal committed error of law by granting compensation of Rs.20,000/- on the ground of permanent disability. 2 S.B. Civil Misc. Appeal No.1350/2006 Smt. Sajjan Bai. vs. Umrao Khan & Ors. I considered the submissions of learned counsel for the appellant and perused the reasons given in the impugned award as well as the record. The appellant remained in hospital at Bhilwara for one day on 24.6.1998 and for four days at Ahmedabad Hospital from 26.6.1998 to 29.6.1998. The bills which were produced by the appellant were taken into account while awarding the compensation and the entire amount of Rs.17,932.50p. The appellant has been granted compensation on account of her pains and sufferings amounting to Rs.12,067.50p. In addition to the above, the total Rs.25,000/- has been awarded to the appellant because of 10% permanent disability to a lady of the age of 55 years, obviously a house wife, the award cannot be said to be low in any manner. In view of the above reasons, I do not find any merit in this appeal. Consequently, this appeal is hereby dismissed. (PRAKASH TATIA), J. S.Phophaliya
