RAEESH AHMAD vs UNITED INDIA INSURANCE LTD.

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in reducing the compensation awarded by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, which had determined the appellant's permanent disability at 30% based on a valid disability certificate. The Court found no medical evidence suggesting improvement in the appellant's condition, thus reinstating the Tribunal's total compensation of Rs.2,45,000. The judgment of the High Court was set aside, affirming the Tribunal's award as just compensation under the Motor Vehicles Act.
