GOLLA RAJANNA ETC. ETC. vs THE DIVISIONAL MANAGER AND ANR ETC ETC.

The Supreme Court addressed the appeal regarding the reduction of compensation awarded to the appellants under The Workmen’s Compensation Act, 1923, specifically referencing Section 30(1). The Court established that the High Court erred in re-evaluating the evidence and substituting its own views, as the injuries claimed by the appellants were not sufficiently substantiated. Consequently, the Court upheld the High Court's decision to reduce the compensation based on the lack of credible evidence regarding the nature of injuries suffered by the claimants.
