Sapre and Indu Malhotra, JJ. allowed the present appeal filed against the decision of Rajasthan High Court whereby the appeal of the claimants was dismissed and award\u00a0 by Motor Accident Claims Tribunal (Jaipur) was affirmed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the present case, the deceased was travelling in a passenger bus to a place called \u2018Chomu\u2019 and when the bus reached Chomu, a truck which was going towards Jaipur came on a high speed and dashed against the bus. Deceased sustained grevious injuries resulting in instant death which led to the filing of an FIR. Further, the incident gave rise to initiation of criminal and civil proceedings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Proceeding were initiated before the civil court, filed by the appellants (claimants) against the Insurance Company (Respondent 1), driver (Respondent 2) and owner of the offending truck (Respondent 3) under Section 166 Motor Vehicles Act before MACT claiming to award reasonable compensation for loss on account of untimely death of the deceased, their only bread earner. Appellants along with the claim petition had filed all the requisite documents against the driver. Tribunal had dismissed the appellants claim petition stating that claimants failed to prove the accident for want of evidence and the one adduced was not exhibited and hence was of no use. Aggrieved by the same, the claimants approached the Rajasthan High Court wherein their appeal was dismissed and therefore filing of the present appeal in Supreme Court arose.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Bench gave a seven pointer reasoning on the issue by adding that the High Court while dismissing the appeal simply affirmed the award of the Tribunal without assigning any reason. In Court\u2019s opinion<strong>, \u201c non-exhibition of the said document was nothing but a procedural lapse, which could not be made basis to reject the claim petition.\u201d <\/strong>Thus, the Court while stating that \u201cif the Court did not exhibit the documents despite the appellants referring them at the time of recording evidence then in such event, the appellants cannot be denied of their right to claim compensation on such ground.\u201d Appellants were held entitled to claim Rs 11,27,920 by way of compensation from the respondents jointly and severally.
