KRISHNAN, J. ........................................... M.A.C.A.No.1235 OF 2008 ............................................. Dated this the 10th day of February, 2010. J U D G M E N T This is an appeal preferred against the award of the Claims Tribunal, Irinjalakuda in OP(MV)No.404/1999. The claimant, a 35 year old lady, sustained injuries in a road accident and she has been awarded a compensation of Rs.3,850/=. A perusal of the award would reveal that as per Ext.A6 she had sustained an injury on the elbow and abrasion on the forearm. No medical bills were produced. The court had taken into consideration loss of earnings, pain and sufferings and loss of amenities and granted a sum of Rs.3,850/=. It appears to be absolutely reasonable and just as contemplated under Section 166 of the Motor Vehicles Act. Therefore the appeal fails and the same is dismissed. M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE cl : 2 : : 3 :
