U.P. State Road Transport Corporation vs Rajenderi Devi

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal which found the U.P. State Road Transport Corporation liable for the death of a cyclist due to negligent driving by its bus driver. The court ruled that the Corporation must bear the entire compensation amount awarded, rejecting the insurance company's liability based on the nature of the bus's operation. The judgment reaffirmed the principles established in previous cases regarding liability in motor accident claims.
