Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the appeal challenging the Allahabad High Court's order which had dismissed the claim for compensation arising from a motor accident. The court found that the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal had correctly awarded compensation to the legal representatives of the deceased, and the appeal was justified as the High Court's order was not in accordance with the facts of the case. The court reinstated the compensation awarded by the Tribunal.
