Rama Shanker &amp; Others)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>whereby a compensation of rupees one lac was awarded.<\/p>\n<p>       The brief facts of the case are that on 14.02.2001 at about 5.30<\/p>\n<p>pm, Sri Sahdev Singh (hereinafter referred as deceased) was<\/p>\n<p>crossing the Sultanpur-Jaunpur National Highway by his bicycle. A<\/p>\n<p>motorcycle no. U.P.72-8425 came with speed and dashed the cyclist.<\/p>\n<p>The deceased sustained injuries and was admitted in the hospital<\/p>\n<p>and next day he was referred to Lucknow where he died. As per the<\/p>\n<p>postmortem report, the age of the deceased was taken as 60 years.<\/p>\n<p>The son of the deceased has filed the Claim Petition before the Motor<\/p>\n<p>Accident Claims Tribunal. The Tribunal has awarded a compensation<\/p>\n<p>of Rs.80,000\/- plus Rs.20,000\/- as consortium, loss of estate and<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                    -2-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>funeral etc. Thus, the total compensation of rupees one lac was<\/p>\n<p>awarded against the appellant.\n<\/p>\n<p>      With this background, Sri S. P. Maurya, learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>appellant submits that the claimant has not filed any Khatauni nor<\/p>\n<p>produced any witness to prove the income of the deceased. The<\/p>\n<p>award was passed on the basis of presumption and without any<\/p>\n<p>material evidence, which is on higher side. He also submits that<\/p>\n<p>there was no evidence of the rash and negligent driving but the<\/p>\n<p>Tribunal has passed the award against the appellant contrary to the<\/p>\n<p>material evidence. The claimant-respondent who was about 28 years<\/p>\n<p>of age cannot proved the dependency of the deceased. So, award<\/p>\n<p>cannot be passed. For this purpose, he relied on the ratio laid down<\/p>\n<p>in the case of Mrs. Hafizun Begum v. Md. Ikram Heque and<\/p>\n<p>others; 2007 (4) T.A.C. 1 (S.C) where it was observed that right to<\/p>\n<p>file a claim application has to be considered in the background of<\/p>\n<p>right to entitlement. The legal representative is one who suffers on<\/p>\n<p>account of death of a person due to a motor accident and need not<\/p>\n<p>necessarily be a wife, husband, parent or child.      Learned counsel<\/p>\n<p>further relied on the ration laid down in the case of Smt. Manjuri<\/p>\n<p>Bera v. Oriental Insurance Co. Ltd.; 2007 AIR SCW 1962 where it<\/p>\n<p>was observed that liability in terms of Section 140 however does not<\/p>\n<p>cease because of absence of dependency. Therefore, even if there<\/p>\n<p>is no loss of dependency the claimant if he or she is a legal<\/p>\n<p>representative will be entitled to compensation, the quantum of which<\/p>\n<p>shall be not less than the liability flowing from Section 140 of the Act.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                      -3-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>       Learned counsel also submits that this is a case of no fault<\/p>\n<p>liability as per Section 140 of the Motor Vehicles Act. So, the<\/p>\n<p>compensation is on higher side. He also relied on the ratio laid down<\/p>\n<p>the case of U.P. State Road Transport Corporation and another<\/p>\n<p>v. Tara Devi and others; 1996 (1) TAC 614 where it was observed<\/p>\n<p>that major sons are not entitled to compensation under Section 110-A<\/p>\n<p>of the Motor Vehicle Act 1939. The fact remains that the present<\/p>\n<p>case is not covered by the Old Act No. 1939. So, the ratio is not<\/p>\n<p>applicable in the instant case. Lastly, he made a request that the<\/p>\n<p>order may kindly be set aside and award be computed as per the<\/p>\n<p>doctrine of no fault liability.\n<\/p>\n<p>      On the other hand Sri Shailendra Singh Chauhan learned counsel<\/p>\n<p>for the opposite party submits that the compensation of Rs.80,000\/- is<\/p>\n<p>meager one as originally the claim was made for Rs.3,35,000\/-. He also<\/p>\n<p>submits that the age of the deceased was 55 years and he was engaged in<\/p>\n<p>the agricultural activities and also selling the vegetables. So, he prays that<\/p>\n<p>the compensation may be enhanced.\n<\/p>\n<p>      Heard both the parties at length and gone through the material<\/p>\n<p>available on record.\n<\/p>\n<p>      From the record, it appears that on 14.02.2001 in the evening at<\/p>\n<p>about 5.30 pm, when Sri Sahdev Singh &#8216;deceased&#8217; was crossing the<\/p>\n<p>National Highway on his bicycle, a motorcycle NO. U.P.72&#8211;8425 came<\/p>\n<p>with speed and dashed the cyclist, resulted into serious injuries to the<\/p>\n<p>deceased who died next day in the hospital at Lucknow.<\/p>\n<p>      In the instant case, the accident is not in dispute as FIR was<\/p>\n<p>lodged against the appellant. The appellant himself has admitted that<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                  -4-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>he has purchased the motorcycle in question before three and half<\/p>\n<p>years from one Sri Ram Raj Mishra. It was not transferred in his<\/p>\n<p>name but he admitted that the vehicle was in possession and at the<\/p>\n<p>relevant date and time, he had gone from his house to the Press. The<\/p>\n<p>appellant also claimed that he was possessing the valid driving<\/p>\n<p>license but the same was not produced at any stage before the<\/p>\n<p>Tribunal.\n<\/p>\n<p>     The Tribunal after examining the eye witnesses including Sri<\/p>\n<p>Shiv Kumar Singh, who was having the shop near the occurrence<\/p>\n<p>and stated that appellant driving the said motorcycle and he had also<\/p>\n<p>fallen down due to the accident with the cyclist (deceased). So, the<\/p>\n<p>accident is not in dispute. The said motorcycle was not insured. So,<\/p>\n<p>the sole liability lies upon the owner of the motorcycle i.e. the<\/p>\n<p>appellant.\n<\/p>\n<p>     In the postmortem report, the age of the deceased was<\/p>\n<p>mentioned at 60 years. So, the Tribunal has taken the same. The<\/p>\n<p>notional income of the deceased was taken as Rs.1500\/- because no<\/p>\n<p>evidence was furnished pertaining to the higher income. The Tribunal<\/p>\n<p>after deducting 1\/3rd of the amount on self expenditure, applied the<\/p>\n<p>multiplier of eight and computed the compensation of Rs.80,000\/-. In<\/p>\n<p>addition, Rs.20,000\/- were also awarded as consortium, loss of<\/p>\n<p>estate and funeral expenses. Thus, the total compensation come to<\/p>\n<p>rupees one lac. The same appears reasonable. Thus, the appeal has<\/p>\n<p>no merit and the same is dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<p>     Needless to say that when the compensation was awarded as<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                  -5-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>per schedule-II of the Motor Vehicles Act, there is no question of<\/p>\n<p>enhancement of the compensation. So, the cross objection has no<\/p>\n<p>merit, the same is also dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<p>      Hence, the impugned order passed by the Motor Accident<\/p>\n<p>Claims Tribunal is hereby sustained along with the reasons<\/p>\n<p>mentioned therein.\n<\/p>\n<p>      The appeal as well as the cross objection are hereby<\/p>\n<p>dismissed. The amount, if any, deposited in this Court shall be<\/p>\n<p>transmitted to the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Sultanpur, who<\/p>\n<p>shall proceed in terms of the award.\n<\/p>\n<p>Order Date :- 6.8.2010<br \/>\nVNP\/-\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                            -6-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Hon&#8217;ble Dr. Satish Chandra, J.\n<\/p>\n<p>        Dismissed.<\/p>\n<pre>\n        For orders see my order of\ndate    passed       on   the   separate\nsheets.\nDated : 06.08.2010\nVNP\/FAFO 88\/2004\n\n\n\n\nHon'ble Dr. Satish Chandra, J.\n        Dismissed.\n        For orders see my order of\ndate passed on FAFO No. 88 of\n2004.\nDated : 06.08.2010\nVNP\/Cross Objection 12\/2004\n <\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Allahabad High Court Rama Shanker Maurya vs Ram Singh on 6 August, 2010 -1- Court No. &#8211; 7 Case :- FIRST APPEAL FROM ORDER No. &#8211; 88 of 2004 Petitioner :- Rama Shanker Maurya Respondent :- Ram Singh Petitioner Counsel :- S.P.
