S.B. CIVIL MISC. APPEAL No. 3960 of 2007 · Rajasthan High Court

HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE MAHESH CHANDRA SHARMA Mr. Vinod Tyagi, counsel for the Insurance Co. Mr. K.N. Tiwari for the respondents BY THE COURT: This is a Civil Misc. Appeal arising out of the judgment and award dated 25.6.2007 passed by MACT, Jaipur. At the very outset, learned counsel for the appellant submits that the learned Tribunal while passing the impugned award has not taken into consideration the grounds which he has raised by way of the aforesaid appeal. The finding of the learned Tribunal on issue nos. 1 and 3 is contrary to the material available on record. Thus, the impugned award passed by the learned Tribunal qua issue nos. 1 and 3 be quashed and set aside and the matter be remanded to the learned Tribunal with the direction to decide the matter afresh in the light of grounds which he has raised by way of the aforesaid appeal. E Converso, the learned counsel for the respondents defended the impugned award 2 and stated the same to be just and apposite. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and carefully perused the relevant material on record including the impugned award. In my considered view, the learned Tribunal while passing the impugned award has not gone through the facts of the case and passed the impugned award surreptitiously. Thus, the impugned award passed by the learned Tribunal needs interference by this Court. In the result, the aforesaid appeal is partly allowed and the impugned judgment and award dated 25.6.2007 passed by Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, qua issue nos. 1 and 3 is quashed and set aside with the direction to the learned Tribunal to decide the matter afresh in the light of the grounds taken by learned counsel for the appellant in the aforesaid appeal, after issuing notice to all the concerned parties and giving opportunity of hearing to them. Both the parties are directed to appear before the learned Tribunal on

18.2.2013. Consequent upon the disposal of appeal, the stay application, filed herewith, 3 does not survive and the same also stands disposed of. (MAHESH CHANDRA SHARMA),J.
