Case Summary: Zumarlal v. Nandkishore & Ors. On 23 March 2001, the Supreme Court allowed Zumarlal's appeal in a motor accident compensation case. Zumarlal had slipped and fallen while standing on a bus footboard; the bus ran over his legs, resulting in his right leg being crushed and subsequently amputated. The Motor Accident Claims Tribunal rejected his compensation claim of Rs. 4,00,000, attributing the accident to his own negligence. The High Court reversed this, awarding Rs. 1,00,000. The Supreme Court enhanced the compensation to Rs. 2,00,000, considering the appellant's permanent disability and advanced age (62 years), with no order as to costs.
