Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's restriction on the appellants' claim under the Motor Vehicles Act against only the alleged offending vehicle and its insurer was improper. The Court clarified that the appellants could also pursue their claim against the Insurance Company, and the findings of the High Court would not impede the Tribunal's inquiry into the matter. The appeal was disposed of with directions for the Tribunal to expedite the proceedings, ensuring that all questions are decided on merits.
