In case of motor accidents leading to injuries and disablements, it is a well settled principle that a person must not only be compensated for his physical injury, but also for the non-pecuniary losses which he has suffered due to the injury. The claimant is entitled to be compensated for his inability to lead a full life, and enjoy those things and amenities which he would have enjoyed, but for the injuries." "13. The purpose of compensation under the Motor Vehicles Act is to fully and adequately [2025:RJ-JP:49245] (5 of 16) [CMA-4970/2018] restore the aggrieved to the position prior to the accident. This Court in Yadava Kumar v. National Insurance Co. Ltd. explained “just compensation” in the following words:" "15. It goes without saying that in matters of determination of compensation both the tribunal and the court are statutorily charged with a responsibility of fixing a “just compensation”. It is obviously true that determination of a just compensation cannot be equated to a bonanza. At the same time the concept of “just compensation” obviously suggests application of fair and equitable principles and a reasonable approach on the part of the tribunals and courts. This reasonableness on the part of the tribunal and court must be on a large peripheral field.” 8- i=koyh ds voyksdu ls izdV gksrk gS fd ekeys dh ?kVuk fnukad 25-11-2013 dh crkbZ x;h gS rFkk oDr ?kVuk vkgr }kjk Lo;a dks [ksrhckMh o etnwjh dk dk;Z djds 15]000@& :i;s izfrekg vk; vftZr djuk crk;k x;k gSA fdUrq viuh vk; ds laca/k esa vihykFkhZ dh vksj ls vf/kdj.k ds le{k dksbZ Bksl lk{; izLrqr ugha dh x;h gSA bu ifjfLFkfr;ksa esa fo}ku vf/kdj.k }kjk vihykFkhZ dh dksbZ vk; fu/kkZfjr ugha dj vk; dh {kfr ds en esa vihykFkhZ dks dkfjr pksVksa ds dkj.k gqbZ 'kkjhfjd o ekufld mRihM+u] Hkfo"; esa bykt gsrq] vk; dh gkfu] ikSf"Vd vkgkj ,oa vLirky vkokxeu bR;kfn ds isVs ,deq'r 60]000@& #i;s dh jkf'k fnyokbZ xbZ gSA tcfd ;g lqLFkkfir fof/k gS fd ftu ekeyksa esa vkgr dh vk; izekf.kr ugha gks] ogka mls nSfud osru Hkksxh etnwj dh Js.kh esa j[kk tkdj rRle; izpfyr U;wure etnwjh dh nj ls gh mldh vk; fu/kkZfjr dh tk,xhA bu ifjfLFkfr;ksa esa ;g U;k;ky; ?kVuk dh frfFk 25-11-2013 dks n`f"Vxr j[krs gq,] oDr ?kVuk vihykFkhZ dks vdq'ky Jfed gksuk ekurs gq, rRle; izpfyr U;wure etnwjh nj ds vk/kkj ij mldh nSfud vk; 166@& #i;s] rn~uqlkj 166 x 30 = 4]980@& #i;s ekfld vk; fu/kkZfjr fd;k tkuk mfpr le>rh gSA [2025:RJ-JP:49245] (6 of 16) [CMA-4970/2018] 9- Dyse ;kfpdk esa vihykFkhZ dks 50 o"kZ dk gksuk crk;k x;k gSA ,slh fLFkfr esa us'kuy ba';ksjsal dEiuh fyfeVsM cuke iz.k; lsBh o vU; fjiksVsZM bu ¼2017½ 16 ,l-lh-lh- 680 esa izfrikfnr fl)kUr ds vuqlkj vihykFkhZ dh vk;q dks n`f"Vxr j[krs gq, mldh fu/kkZfjr ekfld vk; 4]980@& #i;s esa 25 izfr'kr dh c<+ksrjh fd;k tkuk visf{kr gSA rn~uqlkj 4]980@& #i;s dk 25 izfr'kr 1]245@& #i;s gksrk gSA mDr 25 izfr'kr jkf'k dks fu/kkZfjr ekfld vk; esa tksM+s tkus ds mijkar vihykFkhZ dh dqy 'kq) ekfld vk; 6]225@& #i;s gksrh gS] tks {kfriwfrZ fu/kkZj.k dk vk/kkj jgsxhA 10- gLrxr nq?kZVuk esa vihykFkhZ ds 'kjhj ds gkFk&iSj esa vfLFkHkax o vU; pksVsa dkfjr gqbZ gSa] ftlds izHkko ls vihykFkhZ ds 'kjhj esa dqy 25-72 izfr’kr LFkkbZ fu;ksZX;rk vkuk ik;k x;k gSA tSlk fd LFkkbZ fu;ksZX;rk izek.k&i= izn'kZ&60 ds voyksdu ls Li"V gSA 11- fo}ku vf/koDRkk izR;FkhZ chek dEiuh dh vksj ls rdZ fy;k x;k gS fd LFkk;h fu;ksZX;rk izek.k i= tkjh djus okys fpfdRld dks lk{; esa ijhf{kr ugha djok;k x;k gS] vr% LFkk;h fu;ksZX;rk izek.k i= ekus tkus ;ksX; ugha gSA fo}ku vf/kdj.k }kjk fpfdRld dh lk{; ds vHkko esa LFkk;h fu;ksZX;rk izek.k i= ij lgh :i ls fo'okl ugha fd;k x;k gSA bl laca/k eas LFkk;h fu;ksZX;rk izek.k i= izn'kZ&60 ds voyksdu ls izdV gksrk gS fd mDr LFkk;h fu;ksZX;rk izek.k i= jktdh; fpfdRlky; lkeqnkf;d LokLF; dsUnz] lkaxkusj ds esfMdy cksMZ }kjk tkjh fd;k x;k gS] ftlesa ,d ofj"B fpfdRld vfLFk jksx fo'ks"kK gSA mDr LFkk;h fu;ksZX;rk izek.k i= esa vihykFkhZ ds 'kjhj ij dkfjr gqbZ pksVksa ds QyLo:i 25-72 izfr'kr LFkkbZ fu;ksZX;rk dkfjr gksuk esfMdy cksMZ ds fpfdRldksa }kjk vafdr fd;k x;k gSA vihykFkhZ dks dkfjr mDr LFkk;h fu;ksZX;rk ds dkj.k mldk nk;sa iSj o gkFk esa vfLFkHkax dh pksV dkfjr gksuk ik;k x;k gSA bl laca/k esa bl U;k;ky; ds U;kf;d n`"Vkar Ms. Aarti vs. Kailash Singh & Ors.

High Court was of the view that since there was no permit, the question of violation of any condition thereof does not arise. The view is clearly fallacious. A person without permit to ply a vehicle cannot be placed at a better pedestal vis-a-vis one who has a permit, but has violated any condition thereof. Plying of a vehicle without a permit is an infraction. Therefore, in terms of Section 149(2) defence is available to the insurer on that aspect. The acceptability of the stand is a matter of adjudication. The question of policy being operative had no relevance for the issue regarding liability of insurer. High Court was, therefore, not justified in holding the insurer liable." "13. The residual question is what would be the appropriate direction. Considering the beneficial object of the Act, it would be proper for the insurer to satisfy the award, though in law it has no liability. In some cases the insurer has been given the option and liberty to recover the amount from the insured. For the purpose of recovering the amount paid from the owner, the insurer shall not be required to file a suit. It may initiate a proceeding before the concerned Executive Court as if the dispute between the insurer and the owner was the subject matter of determination before the Tribunal and the issue is decided against the owner and in favour of the insurer. Before release of the amount to the claimants, owner of the offending vehicle shall furnish security for the entire amount which the insurer will pay to the claimants. The offending vehicle shall be attached, as a part of the security. If necessity arises the Executive Court shall take assistance of the concerned Regional Transport Authority. The Executing Court shall pass appropriate orders in accordance with law as to the manner in which [2025:RJ-JP:49245] (13 of 16) [CMA-4970/2018] the owner of the vehicle shall make payment to the insurer. In case there is any default it shall be open to the Executing Court to direct realization by disposal of the securities to be furnished or from any other property or properties of the owner of the vehicle i.e. the insured. In the instant case considering the quantum involved we leave it to the discretion of the insurer to decide whether it would take steps for recovery of the amount from the insure." 26- blds vfrfjDr ekuuh; mPpre U;k;ky; us ve`r ikWy flag o vU; cuke VkVk ,vkbZth tujy ba';ksjsal dEiuh fyfeVsM o vU; fjiksVsZM bu 2018 ¼7½ ,llhlh 558 esa Hkh fuEufyf[kr fopkj O;Dr fd;k gS %& "23. In the case at hand, it is clearly demonstrable from the materials brought on record that the vehicle at the time of the accident did not have a permit. The Appellants had taken the stand that the vehicle was not involved in the accident. That apart, they had not stated whether the vehicle had temporary permit or any other kind of permit. The exceptions that have been carved out Under Section 66 of the Act, needless to emphasise, are to be pleaded and proved. The exceptions cannot be taken aid of in the course of an argument to seek absolution from liability. Use of a vehicle in a public place without a permit is a fundamental statutory infraction. We are disposed to think so in view of the series of exceptions carved out in Section 66. The said situations cannot be equated with absence of licence or a fake licence or a licence for different kind of vehicle, or, for that matter, violation of a condition of carrying more number of passengers. Therefore, the principles laid down in Swaran Singh (supra) and Lakhmi Chand (supra) in that regard would not be applicable to the case at hand. That apart, the insurer had taken the plea that the vehicle in question had no permit. It does not require the wisdom of the "Tripitaka", that the existence of a permit of any nature is a matter of documentary evidence. Nothing has been brought on record by the insured to prove that he had a permit of the vehicle. In such a situation, the onus cannot be cast on the insurer. Therefore, the tribunal as well as the High Court had directed the insurer was required to pay the compensation amount to [2025:RJ-JP:49245] (14 of 16) [CMA-4970/2018] the claimants with interest with the stipulation that the insurer shall be entitled to recover the same from the owner and the driver. The said directions are in consonance with the principles stated in Swaran Singh (supra) and Ors. cases pertaining to pay and recover principle." 27- bl izdkj U;kf;d n`"Vkar Challa Bharathamma (supra) o Amrit Paul Singh (supra) esa izfrikfnr fl)kUr ls gekjs le{k ;g fLFkfr vkrh gS fd eksVj okgu nq?kZVuk ds ekeyksa esa tgka okgu lapkyu gsrq oS/k o izHkkoh ijfeV ekStwn ugha gks] ,slh fLFkfr esa chek dEiuh {kfriwfrZ vnk;xh dh ftEesnkj ugha gSA fdUrq chek dEiuh ls vis{kk dh x;h gS fd og fu/kkZfjr {kfriwfrZ jkf'k ;kphx.k dks vnk dj ns o vnk djus ds i'pkr~ mldh olwyh iz'uxr okgu pkyd o ekfyd ls la;qDrr% o i`Fkdr% olwy ysosA bl izdkj ;g U;k;ky; Hkh Challa Bharathamma (supra) o Amrit Paul Singh (supra) ds ekeyksa esa izfrikfnr fl)kUr ds vk/kkj ij chek dEiuh dks vknsf'kr fd;k tkuk mfpr le>rh gS fd chek dEiuh bl ekeys esa fu/kkZfjr {kfriwfrZ jkf'k ;kphx.k dks vnk djs o mlds mijkar vnk dh xbZ jkf'k dks iz'uxr okgu pkyd o Lokeh ls olwy dj ysosA 28- mDrkuqlkj vihykFkhZ i`Foh flag dh vksj ls lafLFkr dh xbZ vihy la[;k&4970@2018 dks vkaf'kd :i ls Lohdkj fd;k tkdj vihykFkhZ fuEu izdkj ls {kfriwfrZ jkf'k izkIr djus dk vf/kdkjh gS %& Øe la[;k 'kh"kZ@en bl fu.kZ; ds rgr fu/kkZfjr dh x;h jkf’k 1- Hkfo"; esa gksus okyh vk; vtZu dh {kerk esa deh ds en esa 2]49]756@& :Ik;s 2- esfMdy fcyksa dh en esa 43]000@& #i;s 3- 'kkjhfjd o ekufld ihM+k dh en esa 25]000@& #i;s 4- Hkfo"; esa gksus okyh lq[k&lqfo/kk dh deh ds en esa 25]000@& #i;s 5- ikSf"Vd vkgkj dh en esa 10]000@& #i;s 6- ifjogu ,oa ;krk;kr ij O;; gqbZ jkf'k ds en esa 5]000@& #i;s 7- 2 ekg dh vk; dh {kfr dh en esa 10]000@& #i;s 8- vLirky esa HkrhZ jgus dh en esa 3]000@& #i;s 9- bl U;k;ky; }kjk fu/kkZfjr dh xbZ {kfriwfrZ jkf'k 3]70]756@& #i;s 10- fo}ku vf/kdj.k }kjk fnyokbZ xbZ {kfriwfrZ jkf'k 1]03]000@& #i;s [2025:RJ-JP:49245] (15 of 16) [CMA-4970/2018] 11- c<+ksrjh i'pkr {kfriwfrZ jkf'k esa varj 2]67]756@& #i;s 29- mDrkuqlkj vihykFkhZ dtksM dh vksj ls lafLFkr dh xbZ vihy la[;k&4948@2018 dks vkaf'kd :i ls Lohdkj fd;k tkdj vihykFkhZ fuEu izdkj ls {kfriwfrZ jkf'k izkIr djus dk vf/kdkjh gS %& Øe la[;k 'kh"kZ@en bl fu.kZ; ds rgr fu/kkZfjr dh x;h jkf’k 1- Hkfo"; esa gksus okyh vk; vtZu dh {kerk esa deh ds en esa 3]81]672@& :Ik;s 2- esfMdy fcyksa dh en esa 3]000@& #i;s 3- 'kkjhfjd o ekufld ihM+k dh en esa 25]000@& #i;s 4- Hkfo"; esa gksus okyh lq[k&lqfo/kk dh deh ds en esa 25]000@& #i;s 5- ikSf"Vd vkgkj dh en esa 10]000@& #i;s 6- ifjogu ,oa ;krk;kr ij O;; gqbZ jkf'k ds en esa 5]000@& #i;s 7- 2 ekg dh vk; dh {kfr dh en esa 10]000@& #i;s 8- bl U;k;ky; }kjk fu/kkZfjr dh xbZ {kfriwfrZ jkf'k 4]59]672@& #i;s 9- fo}ku vf/kdj.k }kjk fnyokbZ xbZ {kfriwfrZ jkf'k 53]000@& #i;s 10- c<+ksrjh i'pkr {kfriwfrZ jkf'k esa varj 4]06]672@& #i;s 30- rnuqlkj vihy la[;k&4970@2018 vkaf’kd :i ls Lohdkj dh tkdj vihykFkhZ@DysesaV dks 3]70]756@&#i;s dk iapkV ikfjr fd;k tkrk gSA blh izdkj vU; vihy la[;k&4948@2018 vkaf’kd :i ls Lohdkj dh tkdj vihykFkhZ@DysesaV dks 4]59]672@& #i;s dk iapkV ikfjr fd;k tkrk gSA vihykFkhZ i`Foh flag }kjk rFkk vihykFkhZ dtksM }kjk iwoZ esa izkIr dh x;h jkf’k dks iapkV jkf’k esa ls lek;ksftr fd;k tkdj 'ks"k jkf’k vihykFkhZ izkIr djus ds vf/kdkjh ik;s tkrs gSaA 31- bl vkns'k }kjk c<+kbZ xbZ {kfriwfrZ jkf'k ij ;kfpdk nk;j djus dh frfFk ls vihykFkhZ i`Foh flag rFkk vihykFkhZ dtksM] 8 izfr'kr okf"kZd C;kt izkIr djus ds vf/kdkjh gSaA 32- vkns'k dh izfr ds lkFk izdj.k dk vfHkys[k lacaf/kr vf/kdj.k dks ykSVk;k tkosA 33- rnuqlkj ;g vihysa fuLrkfjr dh tkrh gSA [2025:RJ-JP:49245] (16 of 16) [CMA-4970/2018] 34- lHkh yfEcr izkFkZuk&i=ksa dks Hkh mijksDrkuqlkj fuLrkfjr fd;k tkrk gSA (ASHUTOSH KUMAR),J KESHAV VERMA /32-33
