This appeal is preferred against the award of the Motor
Accidents Claims Tribunal, Irinjalakuda in O.P.(MV)853/06.
The claimant, a heavy vehicle driver, sustained injuries in a
road accident and the Tribunal awarded him a compensation
of Rs.32,200/-. A perusal of the award would reveal that
there was a glass piece inside the forehead and a fracture of
the frontal bone. No disability certificate is produced. The
Tribunal has awarded the actual expenses incurred plus other
expenses and granted Rs.2,500/- per month as loss of
income for two months. It also granted compensation of
Rs.10,000/- as pain and sufferings and Rs.5,000/- also for
discomfort and loss of amenities. Over all analysis of the
award would reveal that it is a just and reasonable
compensation and therefore there is no merit in the appeal
and hence it is dismissed.
