Radhakrishnan, J

The question that arises for consideration in this appeal is

whether the compensation amount awarded by the Tribunal is

just and proper. Petitioner claimed Rs.30,000/- as loss of

earning. But no evidence has been adduced to show that he was

on loss of pay. Therefore, Tribunal awarded Rs.2,000/- for loss of

earning. Learned counsel submitted that he was on medical

leave from 17.10.04 to 31.5.05. Tribunal awarded a total

compensation of Rs.40,500/-.

Considering the entire facts and circumstances, we find

that the Tribunal awarded reasonable compensation amount. We

find no reason to interfere with the award passed by the

Tribunal. Therefore, the appeal is dismissed.
