Case Summary: FAO/299/2018 – Bala v. Sajjad Ahmad Ganai The Punjab & Haryana High Court dismissed the appeal challenging a Motor Accident Claims Tribunal award of Rs. 43,49,301 for the death of Rajinder Sharma. The court upheld the tribunal's decision to award 50% compensation to the deceased's second wife (Bimla Sharma) and their daughter, rejecting the legally wedded first wife's (Bala's) claim to sole entitlement. The court held that the Motor Vehicles Act provides beneficial compensation to all dependants whose relationship and dependency are proven, not exclusively to the legally wedded spouse. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
