Joseph Francis J.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>         This appeal is filed by the petitioner in O.P.MV 638\/1994<\/p>\n<p>on the file of M.A.C.T. Kottayam. Respondents 1 to 3 herein are<\/p>\n<p>the    respondents 1 to 3 in that OP which was filed under Section<\/p>\n<p>166 of the Motor Vehicles Act. The allegation is that on 28.3.93<\/p>\n<p>while the petitioner was walking through the side Changanaserry &#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Vazhoor road, a motor cycle bearing No.KRO &#8211; 1031 driven by<\/p>\n<p>first respondent in a rash and negligent manner hit the petitioner as<\/p>\n<p>a result of which the petitioner sustained injuries. Second<\/p>\n<p>respondent was the owner of the motor cycle and third respondent<\/p>\n<p>was the insurer. The original claim was for Rs.1,10,000\/- which<\/p>\n<p>was subsequently enhanced to Rs.4,00,000\/-\n<\/p>\n<p>M.A.C.A . NO: 574 OF 2003<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                 : 2:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>          2. In the Claims Tribunal respondents 1 and 2 remained<\/p>\n<p>exparte. Third respondent filed written statement admitting the<\/p>\n<p>policy and contends that the accident was due to the negligence of<\/p>\n<p>the petitioner and that compensation claimed is excessive. Before<\/p>\n<p>the Claims Tribunal no oral evidence was adduced from both sides.<\/p>\n<p>Exts. A1 to A17 were marked on the side of the petitioner. The<\/p>\n<p>Claims Tribunal on considering the evidence found that the<\/p>\n<p>accident was due to rash and negligent driving of first respondent<\/p>\n<p>and awarded a compensation of Rs.16,000\/- together with interest<\/p>\n<p>at the rate of 9% from the date of petition till the date of realisation<\/p>\n<p>and proportionate costs from third respondent. Being dissatisfied<\/p>\n<p>with the quantum of compensation, the petitioner filed this appeal.<\/p>\n<p>          3. Heard the learned counsel for the appellant and the<\/p>\n<p>learned counsel for the third respondent.\n<\/p>\n<p>          4. Learned counsel for the appellant submitted that due to<\/p>\n<p>the accident, the appellant sustained head injury and due to the<\/p>\n<p>M.A.C.A . NO: 574 OF 2003<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                : 3 :<\/span><\/p>\n<p>head injury the appellant suffers from epilepsy and now he is under<\/p>\n<p>anti epilepsy treatment. Learned counsel for the appellant further<\/p>\n<p>submitted that after filing of the O.P., the appellant went to<\/p>\n<p>Abudabi for employment and was employed there. Since head<\/p>\n<p>injury was serious epilepsy condition was not cured and he<\/p>\n<p>suffered from fainting and fits and he became unconscious for<\/p>\n<p>several days and due to this inability the appellant cannot drive his<\/p>\n<p>car which was inevitable part of his job, as he was working as a<\/p>\n<p>salesman. Counsel for the appellant further submitted that several<\/p>\n<p>doctors opined that it is incurable disease and the appellant has to<\/p>\n<p>take life long medication. Learned counsel for the appellant<\/p>\n<p>submits that a certificate from Medical Board is necessary for the<\/p>\n<p>proper disposal of the case. The appellant filed I.A. 2969 of 2002<\/p>\n<p>before M.A.C.T., Kottayam for referring the matter to the Medical<\/p>\n<p>Board, which was dismissed. Learned counsel for the appellant<\/p>\n<p>admitted that the main prayer of the appellant is to refer the case to<\/p>\n<p>M.A.C.A . NO: 574 OF 2003<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                  : 4:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>the Medical board so as to assess the disability. On going through<\/p>\n<p>the lower court records, it is seen that I.A. 2969 of 2002 was<\/p>\n<p>dismissed by the M.A.C.T. Kottayam on the ground that the<\/p>\n<p>accident was in 1993 and the petitioner was in Gulf, employed<\/p>\n<p>there for a long time and there was no treatment during those days.<\/p>\n<p>The Claims Tribunal opined that the petitioner filed IA 2969\/02 in<\/p>\n<p>2002 with the allegation to get him examined by Medical Board to<\/p>\n<p>assess his condition with reference to complaint of epilepsy, the<\/p>\n<p>nexus of which with the accident is not established and that it is<\/p>\n<p>not necessary to have him examined by Medical Board. We also<\/p>\n<p>agree with the reasoning given by the Claim Tribunal for rejecting<\/p>\n<p>the prayer for referring the petitioner to Medical Board.<\/p>\n<p>         5. Ext. A5 is the Medical certificate issued from Medical<\/p>\n<p>College Hospital which shows that due to the accident, the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner sustained head injury with temporary haemorrhage and<\/p>\n<p>was treated as Inpatient for 18 days. Ext.A1 is the discharge card<\/p>\n<p>M.A.C.A . NO: 574 OF 2003<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                               : 5 :<\/span><\/p>\n<p>which shows that the petitioner was later reviewed thrice or more<\/p>\n<p>till 13.8.95. Thereafter the appellant was for a long time in Gulf<\/p>\n<p>county having him employed there. In the original petition at first,<\/p>\n<p>the petitioner was stated to be an agriculturist having a monthly<\/p>\n<p>income of Rs.2,500\/-. In 2001, the O.P. was amended stating that<\/p>\n<p>the appellant was a salesman in Abudabi having a monthly salary<\/p>\n<p>of Rs.25,000\/- As observed by the Claims Tribunal the appellant<\/p>\n<p>after accident, proceeded to Gulf and was employed there for a<\/p>\n<p>considerable long time and was travelling to India and returning to<\/p>\n<p>Gulf frequently without any disability or loss of earning power. In<\/p>\n<p>fact, the evidence shows that after the accident his income is<\/p>\n<p>increased by getting employment abroad. Based on the records<\/p>\n<p>produced the Claims Tribunal, awarded Rs.10,000\/- towards<\/p>\n<p>compensation for pain and suffering, Rs.2,000\/- was awarded<\/p>\n<p>towards treatment expenses, Rs.3,000\/- was awarded towards loss<\/p>\n<p>of earning for two months. Rs.1,000\/- was awarded as bystander<\/p>\n<p>M.A.C.A . NO: 574 OF 2003<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                  : 6 :<\/span><\/p>\n<p>expenses. Thus in total, The Claims Tribunal awarded an amount<\/p>\n<p>of Rs.16,000\/- for compensation. The appellant has not produced<\/p>\n<p>any other document before this court. Therefore we are of the<\/p>\n<p>view that Claims Tribunal is perfectly justified in awarding<\/p>\n<p>Rs.16,000\/- as compensation based on the available records. The<\/p>\n<p>result is, this appeal has to be dismissed as it is without any merits.<\/p>\n<p>          Accordingly this appeal is dismissed. Parties are directed<\/p>\n<p>to suffer their respective costs in this appeal.<\/p>\n<p>                                      K. M. JOSEPH, JUDGE<\/p>\n<p>                               M. L.
