Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ordered the transfer of a compensation claim from the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal (M.A.C.T.) Nasik to Vadodara, citing the convenience of the parties involved. The petitioner, who sustained injuries in an accident, had relocated to the United States, and all other occupants of the vehicle were from Vadodara. The court found it just and proper to allow the transfer, considering the presence of the Insurance Company's branch in Vadodara and the residency of the petitioner's power of attorney holder there.
