Hon'ble Ms. Justice Mukta Gupta,hon'ble Mr. Justice Anish DayalView PDF
The Delhi High Court dismissed Delhi Jal Board's appeal against the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal's award of Rs. 4,23,150/- to Afjal (with 50% contributory negligence deduction) and Rs. 6,16,100/- to minor Subhana following a water tanker accident on October 15, 2014. The court upheld the MACT's disability assessments, finding no infirmity particularly regarding the minor's tender age, and rejected arguments that liability should be apportioned to the scooter driver's guardian, holding that in composite negligence cases, liability is joint and several. The full award amount was directed to be released to both claimants. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
