Corporation.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.\tPresent<br \/>\nappeal is filed by the appellant ?  Corporation challenging only<br \/>\nRs.1,30,000\/-.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.\tIn<br \/>\nthe present appeal, the appellant ?  Corporation has challenged the<br \/>\naward passed by MAC Tribunal (Main) in MACP No.363 of 1995 dated<br \/>\n10.12.1996. The claims Tribunal has awarded Rs.3,80,000\/- with 12%<br \/>\ninterest in favour of respondents claimants.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.\tLearned<br \/>\nadvocate Mr.Dipen Desai has raised contention that the claims<br \/>\nTribunal has not given any reason of attributing the liability to<br \/>\nextent of 75% to the ST Bus and only 25% to the deceased. He also<br \/>\nsubmitted that no cogent evidence of income was produced by the<br \/>\nclaimants and that Exh.22 to 29 are the copies of 7\/12 abstract and a<br \/>\ncertificate Exh.21 which has been given by Shamjibhai Harjibhai<br \/>\nhaving the income of Rs.50,000\/- from his agricultural land by the<br \/>\ndeceased. He also submitted that said Shamjibhai Harjibhai was not<br \/>\nexamined before the claims Tribunal and therefore, such certificate<br \/>\nshould not have to be taken into account by the claims Tribunal.<br \/>\nTherefore, the assessment of income is wrong, without any basis and<br \/>\nwithout any legal evidence. Therefore, the Tribunal has committed<br \/>\ngross error in awarding the compensation in favour of claimants.<br \/>\nExcept that, no other submission is made by learned advocate Mr.Desai<br \/>\nfor the appellant.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.\tI<br \/>\nhave considered the submissions made by learned advocate Mr.Desai and<br \/>\nalso perused the award passed by the claims Tribunal. The accident<br \/>\nhad occurred on 16.7.1995 while the deceased and his wife were going<br \/>\non scooter and when they reached at Nala, Tana Road, near Sagwadi<br \/>\nvillage, at about  3.00 p.m.,  one ST Bus bearing No.GJ-1-Z-95 came<br \/>\nfrom Tana, which was driven by opponent No.1,  in rash and negligent<br \/>\nmanner and dashed with the scooter, wherein Raiyabhai, scooterist<br \/>\nreceived serious injuries and died on the spot. Thereafter, a<br \/>\ncomplaint has been lodged with Shihor Police Station which was<br \/>\nnumbered as CR No.153 of 1995 against the driver of ST Bus ?<br \/>\nopponent No.1.\n<\/p>\n<p>6.\tBefore<br \/>\nthe claims Tribunal, applicant No.1 was examined vide Exh.33 and<br \/>\nrelevant documents were produced on record by the claimants. The<br \/>\nbirth certificate of the deceased was produced before the claims<br \/>\nTribunal vide Exh.32, the documents relating to agricultural land of<br \/>\nthe  deceased are produced vide Exh.21 and 7\/12 abstract was produced<br \/>\nat Exh.22 to 29, the Panchnama and complaint is also produced on<br \/>\nrecord vide Exh.18 and 19 and PM Note is also produced. The Tribunal<br \/>\nhas examined the matter on the basis of evidence and come to the<br \/>\nconclusion that width of the road is 11 ft. and looking to the width<br \/>\nof the road, the ST Bus was dashed from back side to the scooter and<br \/>\ndue to that, deceased was fallen down in Nala and one piece from the<br \/>\nmoped was attached to the ST Bus as mentioned in panchnama and<br \/>\ntherefore, considering this panchanama as an evidence which was not<br \/>\ndisputed by the Corporation, the Tribunal has come to the conclusion<br \/>\nwhile applying principle of res ipsa locuter, 75% negligence on<br \/>\nthe part of ST driver and 25% negligence on the part of deceased has<br \/>\nbeen attributed.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.\tLooking<br \/>\nto the panchnama, it is clear that ST Bus in 11 ft. road having at<br \/>\nleast about more than 8 ft width of the bus and one scooter driven by<br \/>\nthe deceased was there, naturally, it required safe driving by a<br \/>\nheavy vehicle when a small vehicle is going on the same road.<br \/>\nTherefore, that care was not taken which was the responsibility of<br \/>\nthe ST driver, not discharging properly and there was a less<br \/>\nnegligence on the part of deceased which was rightly assessed by the<br \/>\nTribunal on the basis of panchnama and also considering one piece of<br \/>\nmoped was attached to the ST Bus from back side which suggests that<br \/>\nST bus dashed with the scooter from back side and no proper care was<br \/>\ntaken by the ST Bus driver. Therefore, according to my opinion,<br \/>\ncontention raised by learned advocate Mr.Desai cannot be accepted.<br \/>\nThe Tribunal has rightly examined the matter looking to the panchnama<br \/>\nand also considering the principle of res ipsa locuter, therefore,<br \/>\nthe Tribunal has not committed any error in attributing 75%<br \/>\nnegligence of ST driver and 25% negligence of deceased. This being a<br \/>\nfact finding based on evidence, normally this Court cannot interfere<br \/>\nunless some rebuttal evidence  on record before the claims Tribunal<br \/>\nwhich has been ignored by the Tribunal.\n<\/p>\n<p>8.\tIn<br \/>\nrespect to the income, the contention raised by learned advocate<br \/>\nMr.Desai that assessment is wrong because there is no cogent evidence<br \/>\nproduced by claimants before the Tribunal in respect to income of the<br \/>\ndeceased. I have considered the observations made by the Tribunal in<br \/>\nPara.9 of the award. According to Exh.21 certificate, 80 bigha land<br \/>\nwas cultivated by deceased, which was owned by Shamjibhai Harjibhai<br \/>\nand 7\/12 abstract in respect to the agricultural land of Shamjibhai<br \/>\nwhich was produced on record vide Exh.22 to 29. Considering the age<br \/>\nof deceased as 40 years and looking to the certificate Exh.21 which<br \/>\nwas given by Shamjibhai, whose land was cultivated by deceased and<br \/>\nconsidering the prospective income of the deceased, Rs.4000\/- has<br \/>\nbeen assessed by the Tribunal. The Tribunal has considered the<br \/>\ncertificate which are exhibited before the Tribunal. These<br \/>\ncertificates are not disputed by the appellant Corporation and same<br \/>\nwere proved by evidence of the claimants.  Therefore, the Tribunal<br \/>\nhas, looking to the prospective income of the deceased, who was aged<br \/>\n40 years  at the time of death, Rs.4000\/- has been rightly assessed<br \/>\nwhich cannot be considered to be on higher side and looking to the<br \/>\nage of the deceased,  multiplier of 5 has rightly been applied and<br \/>\nafter deducting 25% amount for the negligence of the deceased, the<br \/>\nTribunal has rightly awarded Rs.3,80,000\/- in favour of respondents<br \/>\nclaimants for 12%. Therefore, the contention raised by learned<br \/>\nadvocate Mr.Desai cannot be accepted because it is contrary to the<br \/>\nrecord of the Tribunal. The Tribunal has rightly assessed the income<br \/>\nand also compensation. For that, the Tribunal has not committed any<br \/>\nerror which requires interference by this Court. The Tribunal has<br \/>\nassessed the income including prospective income as Rs.4000\/- means<br \/>\nactual monthly income is not more than Rs.4000\/-. Therefore, the<br \/>\nTribunal has not bifurcated two income one actual and prospective<br \/>\nincome but, he clubbed together two income as Rs.4000\/-. Therefore,<br \/>\nthere is no error committed by the Tribunal while assessing the<br \/>\nincome of the deceased and rightly awarded the compensation in favour<br \/>\nof claimants. For that, there is no error found on record. Therefore,<br \/>\nthe contentions raised by learned advocate Mr.Desai cannot be<br \/>\naccepted and same are rejected. Therefore, there is no substance in<br \/>\nthe present appeal. Accordingly, present appeal is dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<p>9.\tAs<br \/>\nthe First Appeal No.2229 of 1997 is dismissed, no order is<br \/>\nnecessitated in Civil Application No.5854 of 1997. Accordingly, Civil<br \/>\nApplication No.5854 of 1997 is disposed of. Ad-interim relief, if<br \/>\nany, stands vacated.\n<\/p>\n<p>10.\tThe<br \/>\nclaims Tribunal concerned is directed to disburse the amount as per<br \/>\nthe award to the claimants.\n<\/p>\n<p>(H.K.RATHOD,J.) <\/p>\n<p>(vipul)<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   Top<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gujarat High Court Gsrtc vs Champaben on 30 July, 2008 Author: H.K.Rathod,&amp;Nbsp;
