2. Claim petitioners/ Respondent No.1 in both the appeals are injured persons, as such an amount ol Rs.78,00O/- and Rs.53,00O/- with interest was granted respectively by the tnal Court in both the ma I ters, against which appellanL/insurance company prelerred the present appeals and mainly contended that as per the ratio laid down by the Hon'ble Apex Court in Annappa Errappa Nesaria Case, rvith effect from 28.03.2001, an endorsement (either transport or non transport) to drive the vchicle is necessary, bu[ endorsemenl was not therc on the , I driving license of the driver, as such the driver has no valid ;l t driving license to drive the crime vehicle, which is a transport vehicle and hence the insurance company has no legal "\ obligation to pra1. the amount. Therefore, the direction of the trial Court dir,:r:ting the appellant/ insurance companl, o pay and recover th,r amount from lhe owner of the vehicle is to be modified.
