The appellants Saurav Gupta and Smt. Laxmi Devi, husband and mother-in-law of the deceased, filed claim petition before the learned Tribunal and the learned Tribunal, after considering the pleadings of the parties, framed five issues to the effect that as to whether on 27.2.2010 at about 4.30 a.m. near Ravi Filling Station Police Station Fatehganj East in District Bareilly the vehicle Truck was negligently parked in the wrong side in violation of the rules causing serious injuries to Priyanka Negi who died due to the accident and as to whether the Truck driver had a valid and effective driving license at the time of accident and as to whether the Truck was insured at that time. Issue No. 4 was framed to the effect as to whether the driver of the Car was negligent and as to what relief the claimants are entitled. After going through the record and evidence, learned Tribunal analyzed that it was the fault of the driver of the Car who had not stopped the vehicle even after seeing the Truck from a distance of at least 500 meters and if the driver of the Car had taken proper care and attention and had used the brake, the accident could have been avoided.
