Ltd.\n<\/p>\n<p>                                The present appeal has been preferred under Section 173<\/p>\n<p>                    of the Motor Vehicle Act, 1988 against an Order dated 08.09.2010<\/p>\n<p>                    passed by Additional District Judge (Fast Track Court No. II)-cum-<\/p>\n<p>                    Addl. Motor Vehicle Accident Claim Tribunal (hereinafter referred to<\/p>\n<p>                    as the &#8216;Claim Tribunal&#8217;) in M.V. Case No. 35 of 2010. By the said<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                       2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Order the learned &#8216;Claim Tribunal&#8217; has allowed a petition filed under<\/p>\n<p>Section 140 of the M.V. Act for interim compensation filed by the<\/p>\n<p>claimants.\n<\/p>\n<p>             Short fact of the case is that on 01.03.2007, a Commander<\/p>\n<p>Jeep bearing Registration No. BR-2B\/1194 being driven by one<\/p>\n<p>Chhotu Kumar @ Doman dashed with a Bus bearing Registration No.<\/p>\n<p>BR-3P\/0854 near Dhanupra Village, P.S. &#8211; Arrah, District &#8211; Bhojpur<\/p>\n<p>on N.H. 30. In the said accident besides driver of the Commander Jeep<\/p>\n<p>others also died and several received serious injuries. In this case<\/p>\n<p>besides other son of claimant namely Chhotu Kumar also died.<\/p>\n<p>             After the accident a case vide Arrah (Town) P.S. Case No.<\/p>\n<p>41 of 2007 was registered on the fard-beyan of one Ajit Kumar and<\/p>\n<p>after investigation charge-sheet was submitted against the driver of the<\/p>\n<p>Bus showing death of the driver of the Commander Jeep. It appears<\/p>\n<p>that after the accident a claim petition was filed which was numbered<\/p>\n<p>as M.V. 35 of 2010 and a petition under section 140 of the M.V. Act<\/p>\n<p>was filed for interim compensation. After hearing the parties the<\/p>\n<p>learned &#8216;Claim Tribunal&#8217; by Order dated 08.09.2010 allowed the<\/p>\n<p>petition for interim compensation and directed insurers of both the<\/p>\n<p>offending vehicles i.e. the Commander Jeep as well as Bus to share<\/p>\n<p>interim compensation amount of Rs. 50,000\/- equally. Accordingly,<\/p>\n<p>the appellant (insurer of the Commander Jeep) was directed to pay Rs.<\/p>\n<p>25,000\/- as interim compensation to the claimants.<\/p>\n<p>             Sri Raj Kumar Singh Vikram, learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>appellant while challenging the impugned Order submits that the<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                      3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>learned &#8216;Claim Tribunal&#8217; was atleast required to conduct an enquiry<\/p>\n<p>under Section 141 of the Motor Vehicle Act and only thereafter the<\/p>\n<p>learned &#8216;Claim Tribunal&#8217; was required to pass an Order. He submits<\/p>\n<p>that it is true that accident had occurred but in the accident there was<\/p>\n<p>no fault on the part of the driver of the Commander Jeep. It was<\/p>\n<p>submitted that it was completely rash and negligent act of the driver of<\/p>\n<p>the offending Bus and due to that reason Police after investigation<\/p>\n<p>submitted charge sheet against the driver of the offending Bus. It was<\/p>\n<p>submitted that it was not a case of contributory liability and as such<\/p>\n<p>only Respondent No. 3 i.e. Oriental Insurance Company Ltd. was<\/p>\n<p>liable to be directed to pay even the interim compensation amount. In<\/p>\n<p>support of his argument for conducting an enquiry learned counsel for<\/p>\n<p>the appellant has relied on two un-reported Orders\/Judgments passed<\/p>\n<p>by a Single Bench of this Court. First of all learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>appellant has referred to an Order dated 28.04.2010 passed in<\/p>\n<p>Miscellaneous Appeal i.e. M.A. No. 64 of 2007 (National Insurance<\/p>\n<p>Company Ltd. Vs Laxminia Kuer &amp; Ors.). Secondly he has referred to<\/p>\n<p>a Judgment passed by a Single Bench of this Court in Miscellaneous<\/p>\n<p>Appeal No. 101 of 2005 (Branch Manager, Branch Office, National<\/p>\n<p>Insurance Company Ltd. Vs Kiran Devi &amp; Ors.) dated 23 rd September,<\/p>\n<p>2010. On the strength of aforesaid two decisions of this Court it was<\/p>\n<p>submitted by learned counsel for the appellant that the present appeal<\/p>\n<p>may be allowed.\n<\/p>\n<p>            Sri Sanjay Singh, learned counsel for the Respondent No.<\/p>\n<p>3, has opposed the prayer of the appellant. It was submitted by Sri<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                        4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Singh that it is not in dispute that in the accident both the vehicles i.e.<\/p>\n<p>the Commander Jeep and Bus were involved and in the said accident<\/p>\n<p>death of the driver of the Commander Jeep had occurred in relation to<\/p>\n<p>which the claim petition was filed vide M.V. Case No. 35 of 2010. It<\/p>\n<p>was submitted that since the driver of the Commander Jeep died in the<\/p>\n<p>accident there was no reason for the Investigating Agency to forward<\/p>\n<p>him as charge sheeted accused and as such the driver of the<\/p>\n<p>Commander Jeep was not made accused while submitting charge<\/p>\n<p>sheet by the Police.\n<\/p>\n<p>            It was argued that in a case of head on collision prima<\/p>\n<p>facie it can be considered that it was a case of contributory liability<\/p>\n<p>and as such the learned &#8216;Claim Tribunal&#8217; has rightly directed insurers<\/p>\n<p>of both the vehicles to share equally the amount of interim<\/p>\n<p>compensation.\n<\/p>\n<p>            I have heard learned counsel for the parties at the<\/p>\n<p>admission stage itself without even issuance of notice to all the<\/p>\n<p>Respondents. The appeal was heard with the consent of the learned<\/p>\n<p>counsel for the appellant as well as Respondent No. 3.<\/p>\n<p>            So far decision in Laxminia Kuer&#8217;s Case (Supra) is<\/p>\n<p>concerned, in that case it was pleaded that tractor in question was<\/p>\n<p>insured for only agriculture purpose but while it was being used for<\/p>\n<p>commercial purpose accident had taken place. Accordingly the Court<\/p>\n<p>is of the opinion that Order in case of Laxminia Kuer&#8217;s Case (Supra)<\/p>\n<p>was passed in different situation. Similarly in Kiran Devi&#8217;s Case<\/p>\n<p>(Supra), the Insurance Company had taken specific plea that death in<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                  5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>         the accident had occurred by a vehicle which was not insured by the<\/p>\n<p>         Insurance Company and as such the Court is of the opinion that cases<\/p>\n<p>         on which heavy reliance has been made by learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>         appellant has got no application in the facts and circumstances of the<\/p>\n<p>         present case.\n<\/p>\n<p>                         Moreover, while hearing a petition under Section 140 of<\/p>\n<p>         the Motor Vehicle Act it is not required for the Court to ask the<\/p>\n<p>         claimant to lead evidence and establish the case specifically which is<\/p>\n<p>         categorically mentioned in Section 140(3) of the Motor Vehicle Act.<\/p>\n<p>         At the time of hearing a petition under Section 140 of the Motor<\/p>\n<p>         Vehicle Act the only requirement is prima facie satisfaction of the<\/p>\n<p>         Court on the basis of materials available on record.<\/p>\n<p>                      In view of the facts and circumstances as discussed above<\/p>\n<p>         the Court is of the opinion that the learned &#8216;Claim Tribunal&#8217; has<\/p>\n<p>         committed no error and Order impugned does not require any<\/p>\n<p>         interference.\n<\/p>\n<p>                      The appeal stands rejected.\n<\/p>\n<p>                      Let the statutory amount deposited at the time of filing of<\/p>\n<p>         appeal be remitted back to the court below for its payment to the<\/p>\n<p>         claimants.\n<\/p>\n<p>                      The appeal stands dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                     (Rakesh Kumar, J.)<\/p>\n<p>Praful\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patna High Court &#8211; Orders The B.M.
