M Dhanapal vs Chelladurai — 80/2025

Summary: The Special Bench (Motor Vehicle Accident Claims Tribunal) at Tiruppattur, in MCOP No. 80/2025 dated 06.04.2026, examined testimony regarding whether a driver's license was issued to the respondent. The court found that the Traffic Department records show "No D.L" (no driver's license) was issued to the respondent as of the date of inquiry, though the possibility exists that a license may have been obtained before 2012 or renewed without the department's knowledge. The court admitted cross-examination testimony noting that the search in computer records showed "No Search Details Found," and acknowledged potential gaps in documentation, but maintained that based on available official records, the respondent had no valid driver's license at the relevant time. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
