FAO 1221921. As a result of the application for condonation of delay beingallowed, the appeal has been taken up. ( 2 ) MR. R. D. Shahalia. Counsel for the respondent accepts notice. He has already filed reply on merits. There is an application also for earlyhearing filed by the appellant. In view of this. I have heard the appeal. ( 3 ) LEARNED Counsel for the appellant has taken me through theimpugned order. I find from the facts. Which have been found as established by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, that the respondent was runover by DTC bus No. DLP-1578 on 7-9-1979. There is no dispute that thedriver was in the service of the appellant. I am further satisfied that thefinding of the Tribunal about accident being result of rash and negligentdriving on the part of the driver is also sustainable on record. ( 4 ) THE respondent was about 30 years at the time of accident. Theorder under appeal has discussed in detail the seriousness of the injury tothe effect that according to evidence, respondent s right leg came underthe wheels of the bus as a result of the accident, and was dragged to adistance of about 10 to 15 steps, and when he was admitted in Willingdonhospital, he was unconscious and was bleeding from nose, mouth and rightknee. He had to be hospitalised for l\ months and in between haddeveloped complications, "such as Janndice and gangerine, and as a result ofthat his right leg had to be amputated^ There is also evidence of the Doctorfrom Willingdon Hospital to the eftect that the respondent has sufferedpermanent disability to the extent of 40% and he has been crippled for life. The Tribunal awarded to him a sum of Rs. 40. 000. 00 by way of generaldamages for mental pain. Suffering and agony ad a sum of Rs. 1. 000. 00 onaccount of conveyance because after being discharged from the hospital, therespondent has been attending OPD of Safdarjung Hospital, and keeping inview the young age of the respondent, and the nature or the disability suffered by him, a sum of Rs. 75,000. 00 has been awarded as future damages. Suffering and agony ad a sum of Rs. 1. 000. 00 onaccount of conveyance because after being discharged from the hospital, therespondent has been attending OPD of Safdarjung Hospital, and keeping inview the young age of the respondent, and the nature or the disability suffered by him, a sum of Rs. 75,000. 00 has been awarded as future damages. The Tribunal disallowed the claim for medicines and special diet as havingnot been proved, and also on the view that the respondent being agovernment employee might have got reimbursement from Delhi Administration. ( 5 ) THE Tribunal has taken a balanced and rational view of thematter, and the amount awarded by way of compensation, in the circumstances of the case, is not in any respect excessive, and is a just compensationfor the injuries, pain and disability suffered by the respondent. ( 6 ) I, therefore, do not find any merit in the appeal. The same isdismissed. ( 7 ) I am informed by Mr. Shahalia that pursuant to the attachmenttaken, and in the absence of any stay order, as the appeal was not admitted. asumofrs. l,16,000. 00, which is the total amount of the compensationawarded, has been attached and living in deposit with the Tribunal.
