Sunita vs Rajasthan State Road Transport ...

The Supreme Court overturned the Rajasthan High Court's decision which had set aside the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal's award in favor of the claimants for the death of Sitaram due to a collision with a bus. The Court held that the Tribunal had correctly assessed the evidence, including the FIR and charge-sheet against the bus driver under Sections 279, 337, and 304A IPC, and Sections 134/187 of the Motor Vehicles Act. The Court reinstated the Tribunal's award, affirming the claimants' right to compensation for the wrongful death of Sitaram.
