Mr.A.Arumugam\n^For Respondent ... Mr.M.Prakash\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\n\t\t\t* * * * *\n\n:JUDGMENT\n<\/pre>\n<p>\tThis Civil Miscellaneous Appeal has been filed by the appellant against<br \/>\nthe order made in M.C.O.P.No.36 of 1999, dated 31.10.2000, on the file of the<br \/>\nMotor Accident Claims Tribunal, Ambasamudram.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t2. The appellant is the claimant.  On 25.01.1998, the bus bearing<br \/>\nRegistration No.TN-72-N-0435 belonging to the respondent Corporation was<br \/>\nproceeding from North to South on a bridge at Kallidaikurichi. The driver drove<br \/>\nthe bus in a rash and negligent manner without observing traffic rules and hit<br \/>\nthe appellant herein and also the wall of the bridge.  The appellant sustained<br \/>\nmultiple injuries.  She was immediately taken to the Government Hospital at<br \/>\nAmbasamudram and then she was referred to the Government Medical College<br \/>\nHospital at Tirunelveli.  She was treated as in patient upto 11.02.1998. That<br \/>\nis, she was an in patient from 25.01.1998 to 11.02.1998.  Thereafter, she was<br \/>\ntreated as out patient by the Tirunelveli Government Medical College Hospital<br \/>\nupto March 2000.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t3. The claimant filed M.C.O.P.No.36 of 1999 claiming a sum of<br \/>\nRs.1,00,000\/- as compensation.  Before the Tribunal two witnesses were examined<br \/>\non her side and the documents Exs.A.1 to A.7 were marked.  On the side of the<br \/>\nrespondent, no witness was examined and no document was marked.  The Tribunal<br \/>\npassed an award dated 31.10.2000 granting a sum of Rs.17,300\/- as compensation<br \/>\nwith 12% interest  and costs.  The present appeal is seeking enhancement of<br \/>\ncompensation.  In the appeal she claims Rs.82,700\/- as further compensation<br \/>\nbesides the award of the Tribunal of Rs.17,300\/-.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t4. Heard the learned Counsel for both sides.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t5. The learned Counsel for the appellant submits that the Tribunal<br \/>\nrejected the evidence of the doctor and failed to grant any compensation towards<br \/>\ndisability and the loss of earning suffered by the claimant.  It is submitted<br \/>\nthat when the doctor categorically deposed before the Tribunal that the claimant<br \/>\nsuffered 55% of permanent partial disability, the Tribunal should have accepted<br \/>\nthe same, particularly, when there is no contra evidence by the respondent.  It<br \/>\nis further submitted that the Tribunal erroneously proceeded as if the claimant<br \/>\nwas given only Paracetamol and Ibuprofen tablets.  Such a finding is contrary to<br \/>\nthe treatment records which is marked as Ex.P.6.  The learned Counsel has<br \/>\nstrenuously argued that the claimant took the treatment for a very long time as<br \/>\noutpatient in the Government Hospital at Tirunelveli and those details are found<br \/>\nin Ex.A.6.  The learned Counsel takes serious objection to the manner in the<br \/>\napproach of the Tribunal relating to the doctor&#8217;s evidence.  He has taken me<br \/>\nthrough the evidence of the doctor and also Ex.A.7, the disability certificate<br \/>\nissued by the Doctor.  The reason given by the Tribunal for rejecting the<br \/>\ndoctor&#8217;s evidence is not sustainable.  The learned Counsel has relied on the<br \/>\njudgment of this Court in New India Assurance Company Limited Vs. C.K.Ramesh and<br \/>\n2 others reported in  2009(2) TN MAC 163, and also another decision of this<br \/>\nCourt in Shanmugham Vs. The Managing Director, Tamil Nadu State Trasnport<br \/>\nCorporation  reported in 2006(5) CTC 269.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t6. On the other hand, the learned Counsel for the respondent submits that<br \/>\nthere is no infirmity in the order of the Tribunal.  It is submitted that the<br \/>\ndoctor did not treat the claimant in the hospital, where she took treatment.  It<br \/>\nis also submitted that she is not an Orthopaedic surgeon and her evidence was<br \/>\ncorrectly rejected by the Tribunal.  It is further submitted that since the<br \/>\ndoctor did not give the details of the examinations conducted by her for giving<br \/>\nthe disability certificate, the Tribunal was perfectly justified in rejecting<br \/>\nthe evidence of the doctor.  The learned Counsel relies on a decision of the<br \/>\nAndhra Pradesh High Court in M.Jayanna Vs. K.Radha Krishna Reddy and another<br \/>\nreported in 2005 ACJ 344, in support of his submissions.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t7. The learned Counsel for the respondent further submits that in any<br \/>\nevent, if the disability certificate is accepted, the application of multiplier<br \/>\nmethod is not warranted.   It is submitted that in the case of non fatal cases,<br \/>\nas per the decision of this Court in  United India Insurance Company Limited Vs.<br \/>\nVeluchamy and Another reported in 2005(1) TN MAC 87(DB), compensation cannot be<br \/>\narrived at by applying multiplier method.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t8. I have considered the submissions made on either side and perused the<br \/>\nrecords.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t9. The Tribunal awarded Rs.17,300\/- under the following heads:\n<\/p>\n<p>\t(i)  for pain and sufferings\t\tRs.15,000\n<\/p>\n<p>\t(ii) for loss of wages during<br \/>\n\t\tthe treatment period\t\tRs. 1,200\n<\/p>\n<p>\t(iii)for attendant&#8217;s charges\t\tRs.   600\n<\/p>\n<p>\t(iv) for extra nourishment\t\tRs.   500\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\tTotal\t\tRs.17,300\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;\n<\/p>\n<p>\t10. After the accident, the claimant was immediately taken to the<br \/>\nGovernment Hospital, Ambasamudram.  However, the concerned authorities referred<br \/>\nher immediately to the Government Medical College Hospital, Tirunelveli.  She<br \/>\nwas immediately taken to Tirunelveli and was admitted as inpatient.  She was<br \/>\ninpatient from 25.01.1998 to 11.02.1998. That is, she was treated as in patient<br \/>\nfor 18 days. Ex.A.4 is the wound certificate.  Initially, Ambasamudram hospital<br \/>\nhas recorded that they could not give any opinion on the date when the claimant<br \/>\nwas admitted, immediately after the accident. After she was discharged as<br \/>\ninpatient in the Tirunelveli Government Medical College Hospital, the<br \/>\nAmbasamudram hospital gave the wound certificate stating that the claimant<br \/>\nreceived grievous injuries.  It is stated as follows:\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Grievous injury (1)<br \/>\nAfter treatment given by TVMCH<br \/>\ntendon Achilles &#8211; cut&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\t11. Ex.P.6 is the details of the treatment given to the claimant as<br \/>\noutpatient upto 06.03.2000.  I have perused those records.  At the out set, I am<br \/>\nnot in agreement with the finding of the Tribunal that the claimant was given<br \/>\nparacetamol and  Ibuprofen only. That is according to the Tribunal, she was<br \/>\ngiven pain killer and tablets for fever.  According to Ex.P.6, such a finding of<br \/>\nthe Tribunal is not warranted.  She was given different medicines and she was<br \/>\ngiven physiotherapy continuously.  In fact, it is recorded on 28.03.1998 that<br \/>\nlimping gait is getting minimised.  That is, the claimant limped due to the<br \/>\ninjury.  On 02.02.1999, it is recorded as follows:\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;partial injury right heal. Advised to wear healed chapel&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>Thus the entire approach of the Tribunal is perverse, contrary to the evidence<br \/>\non record.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t12. The Tribunal states that in Ex.P.4 or in Ex.P.6, nowhere stated that<br \/>\nthe petitioner suffered permanent partial disability.  The Tribunal is not<br \/>\ncorrect in stating that nothing is stated about the permanent partial disability<br \/>\nin Exs.P.4 and P.6., when   Ex.P.4 is the wound certificate and Ex.P.6 is the<br \/>\ndetails of the treatment given to the petitioner from 25.01.1998 to 06.03.2000.<br \/>\nOne could not see in the wound certificate or in the treatment card, whether the<br \/>\ninjured suffered permanent partial disability and the same has to be gathered<br \/>\nfrom the disability certificate. Therefore, the Tribunal is not correct in<br \/>\nstating as follows:\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8221;   &#8220;&#8221;Mdhy; Bkw;go muR kUj;Jtkidapy; tHA;fg;gl;l rpfpr;irapd; mog;gilapy;<br \/>\nkDjhuUf;F epue;jukhd Cdk; nUe;jjhf vs;sst[k; brhy;yg;gltpy;iy.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\t13. The Tribunal rejected the evidence of P.W.2, the doctor, who gave the<br \/>\nevidence that the claimant suffered 55% of permanent partial disability.  The<br \/>\nreason for rejection was that the doctor did not state on what date and at what<br \/>\ntime, the claimant was examined to give Ex.P.7, the disability certificate. The<br \/>\nother reason was that nothing in the evidence of the doctor nor in the Ex.P.7<br \/>\ncertificate, what were the tests conducted in the appellant claimant were given.<br \/>\nThe following is the reason given by the Tribunal for rejecting the evidence of<br \/>\nthe doctor.\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8221; mtUf;F Vw;gl;Ls;s gFjp epue;ju Cdj;jpd; tpGf;fhL 55% vdt[k;, mjw;fhf<br \/>\ntHA;fg;gl;l rhd;wpjH; k.rh.M.7 vd;Wk; rhl;rpak; mspj;jpUg;gJ bjhpa tUfpd;wd.<br \/>\nne;epiyapy; Bkw;goahhpd; rhl;rpak; kw;Wk; rhd;whtzj;jpd; mog;gilapy; ve;j<br \/>\nBjjpapy; vj;jid kzpf;F vA;F itj;J k.rh.1-I ghpBrhjid bra;jhh; vd;gJ bjhpa<br \/>\ntutpy;iy. mBjBghd;W ve;j ve;j Brhjidfspd; mog;gilapy; kDjhuh; Md k.rh.1-f;F<br \/>\nepue;ju Cdk; 55% nUe;jjhf Kot[f;F te;jhh; vd;gJ bghUl;L kUj;Jt hPjpahf k.rh.2-<br \/>\nd;rhl;rpaj;jpYk; rhd;whtzj;jpYk; bjspt[g;gLj;jg; gltpy;iy vd;W brhd;dhy;<br \/>\nkpifay;y&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\t14. But this reasoning of the Tribunal is not based on  record.  Ex.P.7,<br \/>\nthe disability certificate, states that the same was given after personal and<br \/>\nclinical examination of the claimant.  It is stated in Ex.P.7 as follows:\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I personally and clinically examined Tmt.Annakili, W\/o Sekar, aged 47 years,<br \/>\nresiding at 29-A, Karthigal Madam Street, Kallidaikurichi.  Her identification<br \/>\nmarks are 1.ABM at front of neck over the medial end of collar bone 2. A raised<br \/>\nBM at the back of the neck.  I perused her wound certificate.&#8221;<br \/>\nTherefore, it is clear that the certificate was given after personal and<br \/>\nclinical examinations and after going through the wound certificate.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t15. Further, P.W.2, the doctor gave categorical evidence as follows:<br \/>\n&#8220;ehd; Kf;Tlypy; kUj;Jtuhf gzpg[hpfpBwd;. fhak; Vw;gl;l md;dfpsp vd;gtiu<br \/>\nBeuoahft[k;, mtUila fha rhd;wpjiH ghh;itapl;Lk; ehd; bfhLj;j kUj;Jt rhd;wpjH;.<br \/>\nmtUf;F tyJ fhypy; jir mWgl;Ls;sJ. me;j jirapd; nilbtsp fhzg;gLfpwJ. mtUila<br \/>\neilapy; Bjhw;wk; khWgLfpwJ. mtuhy; btF Beuk; cjtp ny;yhky; epw;fBth elf;fBth<br \/>\nnaytpy;iy.  fhiy klf;fp cl;fhut[k; ne;jpa fHpg;giwapy; cl;fhut[k; rpukk;<br \/>\nVw;gl;Ls;sJ. tyJ fZf;fhy; Kl;od; mirt[fs; ghjpf;fg;gl;Ls;sJ. mtUf;F BkYk; mWit<br \/>\nrpfpr;ir Bjitg;gLfpwJ. mtUf;F Vw;gl;Ls;s gFjp epue;ju Cdj;jpd; tpGf;fhL 55%<br \/>\nepue;ju Cd rhd;wpjH; kDjhuh; jug;g[ rhd;wpjH; 7.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\t16. In course of cross examination by the respondent, nothing was put to<br \/>\nthe witness about the tests that were conducted by the doctor who came into<br \/>\nconclusion about the disability.  The cross examination of the doctor is very<br \/>\nshort and the same is as follows:\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;ehd; Beuoahf ghpBrhjpj;Jk; ghpBrhjid bra;Bjd;.  kDjhuUf;F Vw;gl;Ls;s fhak;<br \/>\nrpWfhaA;fs; vd;why; rhpay;y. bfhLj;Js;s Cd tpGf;fhL mjpfk; vd;why; rhpay;y.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\t17. In view of Ex.P.7 read with the evidence of the doctor, the reasoning<br \/>\nof the Tribunal for rejecting the Ex.A.7 disability certificate is not<br \/>\njustified.  when the doctor categorically stated that certificate was given<br \/>\nafter subjecting the claimant for personal and clinical examination and also<br \/>\nafter seeing the wound certificate, the Tribunal was not justified in rejecting<br \/>\nthe evidence of the doctor, an expert, in the above said manner.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t18. In this regard, the judgment of this Court in  New India Assurance<br \/>\nCompany Limited Vs. C.K.Ramesh and 2 others reported in  2009(2) TN MAC 163<br \/>\nrelied<br \/>\nby the claimant is directly on the point.  Paragraph 7(a) of the said judgment<br \/>\nis extracted hereunder:\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;7(a). Though the learned Counsel for the appellant would assail the evidence of<br \/>\nP.W.2 on the contention that the doctor is not at all qualified in Orthopaedics<br \/>\nnor Otorhinolaryngology, on the side of the appellant, they have not let in any<br \/>\noral evidence or medical evidence to defeat the oral evidence given by P.W.2.<br \/>\nIt is to be seen that P.W.2 is also working in K.G.Hospital where the<br \/>\nrespondent\/claimant was taking treatment as inpatient for his injuries.  In the<br \/>\nconsidered vie of this Court, there is no impediment to accept the oral evidence<br \/>\nof P.W.2 since it has been supported by other medical evidence as narrated<br \/>\nbefore.  In the re-examination of P.W.2, he has stated that he also had<br \/>\nconsultation with other Doctor and given his opinion in the disability<br \/>\ncertificate.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\t19. The other judgment in Shanmugham Vs. The Managing Director, Tamil Nadu<br \/>\nState Trasnport Corporation  reported in 2006(5) CTC 269, this Court reversed<br \/>\nthe finding of the Tribunal refusing to take into account the medical bills<br \/>\nwithout being supported by doctor&#8217;s evidence.  This Court held that the<br \/>\nprocedure contemplated is a summary procedure while deciding the accident<br \/>\nclaims.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t20. The learned Counsel for the respondent relies on the decision of the<br \/>\nAndhra Pradesh High Court in M.Jayanna Vs. K.Radha Krishna Reddy and another<br \/>\nreported in 2005 ACJ 344. That case arose in a peculiar circumstances wherein it<br \/>\nis noted that a large scale fraud is committed in accident claims.  In this<br \/>\ncase, the respondent did not dispute the accident.  Hence, that case is not<br \/>\napplicable to the facts of this case.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t21. In these circumstances, I am of the view that the order of the<br \/>\nTribunal needs interference.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t22. The learned Counsel for the respondent submits that it is not a fatal<br \/>\ncase and multiplier method cannot be applied to determine the compensation in<br \/>\nnon fatal cases.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t23. I am not in agreement with the submissions made by the learned Counsel<br \/>\nfor the respondent.  The Second Schedule of the Motor Vehicles Act makes it very<br \/>\nclear that the multiplier method can be applied for non fatal cases. In fact,<br \/>\nthe same issue is decided in  New India Assurance Company Limited Vs. C.K.Ramesh<br \/>\nand 2 others reported in  2009(2) TN MAC 163(supra).  This Court, after<br \/>\nreferring to various decisions of the Honourable Apex Court, held that the<br \/>\nmultiplier method can be applied in the case of non fatal cases. I am not in<br \/>\nagreement with the submission made by the learned Counsel for the respondent<br \/>\nthat the Division Bench of this Court in United India Insurance Company Limited<br \/>\nVs. Veluchamy and Another reported in 2005(1) TN MAC 87(DB) held that multiplier<br \/>\nmethod should not be applied in permanent partial disability cases.  On the<br \/>\nother hand, the said judgment applied the multiplier method in the case of<br \/>\npermanent total disablement. No where the Division Bench stated that the<br \/>\nmultiplier method should not be applied in partial permanent disability cases.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t24. Though the Tribunal took Rs.1,200\/- as monthly salary for the<br \/>\nclaimant, I would like to take Rs.15,000\/- as annual earnings of the claimant as<br \/>\nthe monthly earnings was not established, based on the  Second Schedule of the<br \/>\nMotor Vehicles Act.  The petitioner is aged about 45 years.  The multiplier for<br \/>\nthe age group 45 to 50 years is &#8220;13&#8221;.  Then the claimant is entitled to<br \/>\ncompensation as per the Second Schedule of the Motor Vehicles Act at Rs.15,000\/-<br \/>\nX 13 x 55\/100=1,07,250\/-.  Since the very purpose of the Motor Vehicles Act is<br \/>\nto provide just compensation to the third parties, the victims of the road<br \/>\naccidents, there is no bar to award the compensation over and above the claim<br \/>\nmade by the claimant.  In fact the Honourable Apex Court in Nagappa&#8217;s case<br \/>\nreported in I(2004) ACC 524(SC) and in Rama Devi&#8217;s case reported in 2008(1)<br \/>\nTNMAC 234(SC) held in categorical terms that the victims are entitled to just<br \/>\nand reasonable compensation as envisaged under Section 168 of the Motor Vehicles<br \/>\nAct and there is no bar to award more than the claim made by the claimants.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t25. In these circumstances, the respondent is directed to deposit the<br \/>\nenhanced amount within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy<br \/>\nof this order. That is, the respondent is directed to deposit Rs.1,07,250\/-.<br \/>\nHowever, I like to award only 9% interest from the date of application for the<br \/>\nenhanced amount. The appellant is permitted to withdraw the  amount from the<br \/>\nTribunal by paying the deficit Court fee.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t26. In fine, this Civil Miscellaneous Appeal is allowed in the above<br \/>\nterms. No costs.\n<\/p>\n<p>ssl<\/p>\n<p>To:\n<\/p>\n<p>The Motor Accident Claims Tribunal,<br \/>\nAmbasamudram.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Madras High Court Mrs.Annakili vs The Managing Director on 29 March, 2010 BEFORE THE MADURAI BENCH OF MADRAS HIGH COURT Dated: 29\/03\/2010 CORAM THE HONOURABLE MR.JUSTICE D.HARIPARANTHAMAN C.M.A.(MD)No.1362 of 2001 Mrs.Annakili &#8230; Appellant \/ Claimant Vs.
