Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to enhance the compensation awarded to the appellant for injuries sustained in a motor accident. The court found that the initial compensation was inadequate and justified the increase based on the severity of the injuries and the impact on the claimant's life. The final compensation was raised to Rs. 9,26,800, reflecting a fair assessment of damages.
