The present appeals have been preferred by the appellants challenging the judgment and award dated 28/08/2001 passed by Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Balotra in Motor Accident Claims Case Nos. 60/99, 62/99 and 96/99. The Insurance Company has also preferred civil cross-objection in the appeal preferred by Babulal (CMA No. 231/2002). The claim petitions were disposed of by a common judgment as they arose out of the same accident which occurred on 12/01/1999. Thus, the present appeals as well as cross-objection are also being disposed of by this common judgment.
