K.KANNAN
Anil Kumar son of Fateh Singh – Appellant
Versus
Vishnu son of Parbhu – Respondent
Mr. K. Kannan J.(Oral) - The appeal is for enhancement of claim of compensation for injuries suffered in a motor accident that took place on 04.09.2008. The claimant had a fracture on right femur, fracture on right clavicle at the right zygomatic arch and injury in the right tibial plateau. The patient had been admitted for about a month commencing from 04.09.2008 to 29.09.2008 at three hospitals. The claimant was a plumber and he was earning Rs.6,000/- per month. The Tribunal while assessing the compensation provided for medical expenses brought through bills and also awarded compensation for special diet, transport, pain and suffering and other loss of amenities. The learned counsel would argue that the Tribunal did not provide for the actual medical expenses which aggregated to Rs.1,33,416/- and would also contend that attendant charges were not properly provided. The counsel has a grievance that the Tribunal has merely taken the evidence of the doctor that the injuries resulted in temporary disablement and would place reliance on additional document produced before the Court, which has been issued by the General Hospital, Sonipat subsequent to the filing of the appeal.
