Hon'ble Shri Justice Sanjay K. AgrawalView PDF
The High Court of Chhattisgarh dismissed ICICI Lombard's appeal against a Motor Accident Claims Tribunal award favoring claimants Smt. Gomti Bai and others. The insurer's contention that the vehicle was falsely implicated lacked merit—no such plea was specifically raised in the written statement, and the investigator provided no evidence supporting it. The court held that delay in FIR filing cannot reject motor accident claims if authenticity is established, citing Supreme Court precedent that families prioritize victim treatment over immediate police reporting. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
