Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court reinstated the award of Rs. 8,90,000 granted by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal to the legal heirs of the deceased Dinkar Shankarrao Ghorpade, whose death resulted from a motorcycle accident involving a Maruti-800 car. The court found that the High Court erred in setting aside the Tribunal's award, emphasizing the need for just compensation for victims of motor accidents. The ruling underscores the importance of upholding the Tribunal's findings in cases of negligence and liability in motor vehicle accidents.
