Sangalad<\/p>\n<p>1. The appellant is the applicant who has filed the application for the compensation on 21-1-1992 stating that he was working as a Coolie under the respondent 2. On 12-6-1991 when he was working, the soil block and the stones fell on his head and legs, as such he sustained injuries especially the toes. Hence he claimed the compensation of Rs. l,00,000\/-.\n<\/p>\n<p>2. Mr. Anand Kumar, learned Counsel for the appellant submitted that the learned Commissioner has not followed the mandatory provision as per Section 28(1) of the Workmen&#8217;s Compensation Act, 1923. On the other hand the learned Government Pleader submitted that there was a compromise and the memorandum was sent to the Commissioner who registered it on being satisfied that there was no undue influence, fraud, much less any coercion and inadequacy. Hence the memorandum has to be accepted.\n<\/p>\n<p>3. In view of these rival submissions, the award of the learned Commissioner is perused. According to Section 28(1) of the Workmen&#8217;s Compensation Act after receipt of the memorandum, the Commissioner has to issue the notice to the applicant and further has to register it not before the expiry of 7 days. In this case, it is not done so. On page No. 9 of the award itself, it is mentioned that it is not done. Hence it goes to show that there is a non-compliance of the mandatory provision. Therefore, the impugned award is liable to be set aside and the following order is passed:\n<\/p>\n<p>In the result, the appeal is allowed. The award dated 9-3-1994 is set aside. The matter is remitted to the Commissioner for Workmen&#8217;s Compensation, Belgaum for holding fresh enquiry in accordance with law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Karnataka High Court Shankar vs The Assistant Executive &#8230; on 6 March, 2000 Equivalent citations: 2001 ACJ 1119, 2000 (86) FLR 871, ILR 2000 KAR 2632, 2000 (5) KarLJ 577 Bench: B Sangalad JUDGMENT B.K.
