    Hon'ble Shri Justice Sanjay K. AgrawalView PDF

    The High Court of Chhattisgarh dismissed the insurance company's appeal seeking exemption from liability by rejecting its application for additional evidence regarding the driver's invalid license, as no specific plea was raised in the written statement during trial. The court partly allowed the claimants' appeal and enhanced the motor accident compensation from Rs. 26,57,455 to Rs. 34,33,698 by adding 30% future prospects to the deceased forest guard's annual income, as per Supreme Court precedent.
