casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: State of Punjab v. Surinder Kaur (Civil Appeals 565-566/2002) The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's judgment that upheld a Rs. 3.36 lakh motor accident award against the State of Punjab. The Court found the High Court erroneously relied on "independent witness" Rajinder Kumar's evidence despite him never being examined as a witness in the case—a fact the High Court based solely on an FIR statement without proper basis. The appeals are remitted back to the High Court for fresh disposal on all points in accordance with law. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
