JUDGMENT Dev Darshan Sud,J. Both these appeals are disposed of by this common judgment as the same arise out of the same accident. 2. The appellant challenges the order passed by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Chamba allowing a sum of `50,000/- to the claimant-respondents under Section 140 of the Motor Vehicles Act. It is undisputed before me that now the final award has also been passed by the learned Tribunal. In these Whether Reporters of Local Papers may be allowed to see the judgment? Yes. circumstances, this application has become infructuous and is disposed of as such. 3. Learned counsel appearing for the appellant submits that dismissal of this appeal would have an important bearing on the appeal which is being preferred by the Insurance Company against the final award. This apprehension is unfounded. It will be open to the Insurance Company to urge all grounds which have been taken herein in any appeal which may be preferred against the final award and decision of this appeal shall have no material bearing on such challenge being made. This finding would be equally applicable to whatever challenge the Insurance Company may make against the rejection of application under Section 170 of the Motor Vehicles Act.
