Road accident : Court awards `65 lakh compensation to victim's family
The family members of a 27-year-old man, who was killed in a road accident on Yamuna Expressway in 2013, have been awarded a compensation of over Rs 65 lakh by a Motor Accident Claims Tribunal (MACT) here.
New Delhi: The family members of a 27-year-old man, who was killed in a road accident on Yamuna Expressway in 2013, have been awarded a compensation of over Rs 65 lakh by a Motor Accident Claims Tribunal (MACT) here.
MACT presiding officer S S Malhotra directed the Cholamandalam MS General Insurance Company Limited, the insurer of the offending vehicle, to pay Rs 65.22 lakh to north Delhi-resident Raj Kumar's family -- his wife, toddler son and parents.
"It stands proved that the accident in question occurred due to rash or negligence driving of offending vehicle and the respondents have failed to prove that there were any contributory negligence on the part of deceased who suffered fatal injuries in that accident," the tribunal said.
According to the complaint filed by Kumar's father, the accident occurred in August 2013 when the victim was riding his bike to Jewer in Uttar Pradesh from Delhi.
