Case History
CASE SUMMARY: C.A. No. 596/2002 (Devarajan v. M.D., M.G.R. Transport Corporation Ltd.) Devarajan, gravely injured in a motor accident resulting in amputation of both legs, was awarded Rs. 4,54,500 by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal. The High Court reduced this to Rs. 3,06,000 without providing reasons. The Supreme Court found the High Court's reduction unsustainable as it failed to justify setting aside the Tribunal's findings. The appeal was allowed, the Tribunal's original award of Rs. 4,54,500 was restored, and no costs were imposed.
