             This judgment will dispose of the above mentioned two appeals<\/p>\n
which have been directed against award dated 29.10.1988 passed by the<\/p>\n
Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Hoshiarpur (for short, `the Tribunal’) in<\/p>\n
M.A.C.T. Case No.10\/Add. of 22.2.1988.\n<\/p>\n
              In a motor vehicular accident which took place on 24.10.1987,<\/p>\n
Amarpreet Singh sustained injuries. He filed a claim petition and the<\/p>\n
Tribunal awarded a total compensation of Rs.88500\/- to him along with<\/p>\n
interest at the rate of 12% per annum from 18.2.1988, i.e., the date of filing<\/p>\n
of the claim petition, till realization, under the following heads:-<\/p>\n
             1. Pain and agony and on account of<\/p>\n
               50% permanent partial disability<\/p>\n
               and loss of enjoyment of life         =     Rs.50,000.00<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
             2. Treatment and medicines              =     Rs.13500.00<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
             3. Conveyance charges                   =     Rs. 1750.00<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
             4. Expenses of attendants               =     Rs. 3000.00<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
             5. Wages to be incurred on<\/p>\n
                tractor driver                       =     Rs.19200.00<\/p>\n
                                   Total             =     Rs.88450.00<\/p>\n
This sum was rounded off to Rs.88500\/-.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
             Mohan Lal alias Mohni was held liable to satisfy the award.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
             Mohan Lal alias Mohni has filed F.A.O.No.155 of 1989<\/p>\n
challenging his liability as fixed by the Tribunal, whereas Amarpreet Singh<\/p>\n
has preferred F.A.O.No.327 of 1989 for enhancement of the compensation
\n                             F.A.O.No.155 of 1989<\/p>\n
                                     -3-<\/span><\/p>\n
                                     ….\n<\/p>\n
\ngranted to him.\n<\/p>\n
            The only question that requires determination in F.A.O.No.155<\/p>\n
of 1989 is as to whether or not appellant-Mohan Lal, who was the<\/p>\n
subsequent purchaser of the offending vehicle from its original owner –<\/p>\n
Sher Singh, was liable to satisfy the award or it should be the insurance<\/p>\n
company with whom the offending vehicle was insured.<\/p>\n
            Learned counsel for appellant-Mohan Lal contended that<\/p>\n
concededly the offending vehicle was purchased by Mohan Lal from Sher<\/p>\n
Singh and the same was insured. He further contended that in view of this,<\/p>\n
the Tribunal has wrongly fastened the liability on Mohan Lal to satisfy the<\/p>\n
award on the premise that the intimation of the transfer of the offending<\/p>\n
vehicle had not been given to the insurance company.<\/p>\n
            On the other hand, learned counsel for the insurance company<\/p>\n
has contended that the award of the Tribunal is perfectly valid and since no<\/p>\n
intimation was given to insurance company, no liability could be fastened<\/p>\n
on it.\n<\/p>\n
            Having thoughtfully considered the rival contentions and<\/p>\n
having perused the record, I am of the opinion that the finding recorded by<\/p>\n
the Tribunal in so far as the liability is concerned, is erroneous for two<\/p>\n
reasons – (i) the insurance company did not lead any evidence to prove that<\/p>\n
the intimation about the transfer of the offending vehicle had not been given<\/p>\n
to it, and (ii) even if the intimation had not been given, it would have been<\/p>\n
of no consequence as the liability of the insurer towards third party cannot<\/p>\n
be absolved in view of the provisions of Sections 94 and 95 of the Motor
\n                             F.A.O.No.155 of 1989<\/p>\n
                                      -4-<\/span><\/p>\n
                                      ….\n<\/p>\n
\nVehicles Act,1939.\n<\/p>\n
            While dealing with the similar question, their Lordships of the<\/p>\n
Supreme Court in United India Insurance Co.Ltd., Shimla Versus Tilak<\/p>\n
Singh and others, 2006(2) P.L.R. 297 (S.C.), observed in paragraphs 9 and<\/p>\n
13 of the judgment as under:-\n<\/p>\n
            “9. Citing with approval the judgment of the Full Bench of the<\/p>\n
            Andhra Pradesh High Court in Madineni Kondajah and others<\/p>\n
            Versus Yaseen Fatima and others, AIR 1986 A.P. 62, and<\/p>\n
            contrasting the provisions of Section 103-A of the 1939 Act<\/p>\n
            with Section 157 of the 1988 Act, thisCourt said in Complete<\/p>\n
            Insulations Ltd. v. New India Assurance Co.Ltd.,<\/a> (1996-1) 112<\/p>\n
            P.L.R. 202 (S.C.) = (1996) 1 S.C.C. 211, (vide para 6)<\/p>\n
                     `Now, under the Old Act although the insurer could<\/p>\n
                     refuse to transfer the certificate of insurance in certain<\/p>\n
                     circumstances and the transfer was not automatic as<\/p>\n
                     under the new Act, there         was under the old law<\/p>\n
                     protection to third parties, that is        victim of the<\/p>\n
                     accident. The protection was available by virtue of<\/p>\n
                     Sections 94 and 95 of the old Act.”\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            13. Thus, in our view, the situation in law which arises from the<\/p>\n
            failure of the transfer to notify the insurer of the fact of transfer<\/p>\n
            of ownership of the insured vehicle is no different, whether<\/p>\n
            under Section 103-A of the 1939 Act or under Section 157 of<\/p>\n
            the 1988 Act in so far as the liability towards a third party is
\n                             F.A.O.No.155 of 1989<\/p>\n
                                     -5-<\/span><\/p>\n
                                     ….\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\n            concerned. Thus, whether the old Act applies to the facts before<\/p>\n
            us, or the new Act applies, as far as the deceased third party<\/p>\n
            was concerned, the result would not be different. Hence, the<\/p>\n
            contention of the appellant on the second issue must fail, either<\/p>\n
            way,making a decision on the first contention unnecessary, for<\/p>\n
            deciding the second issue. However, it may be necessary to<\/p>\n
            decide which Act applies for deciding the third contention. In<\/p>\n
            our view, it is not the transfer of the vehicle but the accident<\/p>\n
            which furnishes the cause of action for the application before<\/p>\n
            the Tribunal. Undoubtedly, the accident took place after the<\/p>\n
            1988 Act had come into force. Hence, it is the 1988 Act which<\/p>\n
            would govern the situation.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            In view of the law laid down by the Apex Court, which has<\/p>\n
been reproduced above, the appeal of Mohan Lal deserves to be accepted as<\/p>\n
the finding recorded by the Tribunal making him liable to satisfy the award<\/p>\n
cannot be sustained.\n<\/p>\n
            In so far as F.A.O.No.327 of 1989 is concerned, it has come in<\/p>\n
the statement of AW1-Dr.Shiv Shakti Dhawan,Medical Officer, Civil<\/p>\n
Hospital, Hoshiarpur, that Amarpreet Singh suffered the following injuries:-<\/p>\n
           “1. A lacerated wound 3 cm x 1 cm x bone deep obliquely over<\/p>\n
           the bridge of the nose. Advised x-ray nose.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
           2. Two abrasions 5 cm x .5 cm on the front in the middle at 2 cm<\/p>\n
           apart running vertically on the forehead.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
           3. Bleeding from both the nostrils present.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
                              F.A.O.No.155 of 1989<\/p>\n
                                       -6-<\/span><\/p>\n
                                        ….\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
<\/blockquote>\n
            4. A raddish abrasion 2 cm x 1 cm on the back of right elbow.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
            5. A lacerated wound 0.5 x 0.5 cm on front of right leg in its<\/p>\n
              upper 1\/3rd.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            6. A raddish abrasion 2 cm x 1.5 cm irregular on the front of<\/p>\n
              right leg in its upper 1\/3rd.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            7. A raddish abrasion 8 cm x 6 cm irregular on the medial side<\/p>\n
              of left thigh in its lower 1\/3rd.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            8. A raddish contusion 8 cm x 4 cm on the front of right thigh in<\/p>\n
              its lower 1\/3rd.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            9. A lacerated wound 4 cm 1.5 cm x muscle deep on the left<\/p>\n
              side of face, just lateral to the angle of the mouth on the left<\/p>\n
              side running downward obliquely. Bleeding present.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            AW6- Dr.Lajpat Rai of Christian Medical College,Ludhiana<\/p>\n
stated that Amarpreet Singh was admitted in their hospital under his care in<\/p>\n
Neuro-surgical Service with the history of road traffic accident with the<\/p>\n
following injuries:-\n<\/p>\n
            1. Closed head injury.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            2. Cerebral contusion.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            3. Fracture nasal bones.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            4. Multiple laceration on face.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            5. Fracture of both bones of right leg and fracture of left radius.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
            AW7-Dr.Rachhpal Singh had examined Amarpreet Singh to<\/p>\n
ascertain the disability which he had suffered. After due examination, as per<\/p>\n
this witness, Amarpreet Singh was found having 50% permanent partial
\n                              F.A.O.No.155 of 1989<\/p>\n
                                      -7-<\/span><\/p>\n
                                      ….\n<\/p>\n
\ndisability. AW7 further stated that on account of this disability, Amarpreet<\/p>\n
Singh is not likely to drive a motor car or a tractor and he is not also capable<\/p>\n
of running, but he can walk slowly to carry out his routine activities.<\/p>\n
              Having regard to the above mentioned evidence, in my view,<\/p>\n
the compensation awarded by the Tribunal to Amarpreet Singh is<\/p>\n
inadequate.\n<\/p>\n
              As seen above, Amarpreet Singh has suffered injuries which<\/p>\n
would have impact on his functioning for entire life.<\/p>\n
              In this view of the matter when Amarpreet Singh has suffered<\/p>\n
50% permanent partial disability and the fact that it has nowhere come on<\/p>\n
record that the same can be cured, it would be just and appropriate if the<\/p>\n
principle of Rs.2000\/- per percentage of the disability is adopted in the<\/p>\n
instant case.     Accordingly, Amarpreet Singh is awarded a sum of<\/p>\n
Rs.1,00,000\/- on account of disability having been suffered by him.<\/p>\n
              It is made clear that the aforesaid amount shall be in addition<\/p>\n
to the amount of Rs.50,000\/- awarded by the Tribunal under the heading<\/p>\n
“Pain and agony and on account of 50% permanent partial disability and<\/p>\n
loss of enjoyment of life.” The said amount of Rs.50,000\/- will be treated<\/p>\n
on account of pain & agony and loss of enjoyment of life.<\/p>\n
              The compensation awarded under the other heads does not<\/p>\n
require any interference and is maintained.\n<\/p>\n
              In this way, Amarpreet Singh is held entitled to a total sum of<\/p>\n
Rs.1,88,450\/-, which is rounded off to Rs.1,88,500\/-, as compensation.<\/p>\n
              The enhanced compensation shall be payable to Amarpreet
\n                               F.A.O.No.155 of 1989<\/p>\n
                                        -8-<\/span><\/p>\n
                                        ….\n<\/p>\n
\nSingh along with interest at the rate of 9% per annum from the date of<\/p>\n
claim petition till the date of realisation.\n<\/p>\n
             The insurance company of the offending vehicle shall be liable<\/p>\n
to pay the compensation and interest to Amarpreet Singh.<\/p>\n
             The impugned award is modified to the above extent and the<\/p>\n
appeals are allowed in the aforementioned terms.<\/p>\n
