Vanitaben Vasantbhai Munjat vs Amarshibhai Pramjibhai Munjat on 10 June, 2022

[18] So far as the other contention raised by the learned advocate for the Insurance Company with regard to proper pleadings is concerned, the same is not acceptable in view of the settled position of law that the Motor Vehicles Act is a beneficial legislation and the procedure envisaged under it is a summary in nature and strict rule of evidence and pleadings are not applicable. Even otherwise, in the claim petition, it has already been averred that the deceased was a driver by vocation. Therefore, it cannot be said that there is no specific pleading at all. [19] So far as reliance placed by the Insurance Company in the case of Bajaj Aliance General Insurance Company Ltd. (supra) is concerned, in my considered opinion, facts of that case and facts of the case on hand are materially different. In the said case, the vehicle was a motor cycle owned by another person and was being driven by the deceased. Whereas, in the case on hand, the car was being driven by the deceased in a capacity of a driver, for which the Insurance Company has received premium. Thus, in my considered opinion, as stated above, the Insurance Company cannot be deleted or exonerated at interim stage without recording of any evidence.

Praful Vashrambhai vs Gujarat State Road Transport ... on 12 April, 2007

6. It is true that in normal circumstances, the Tribunal while adjudicating the claim petition would rely upon the documents, which are produced and more particularly in the matter where the disability is to be proved after giving opportunity to cross-examine the said doctor by the opponents of the claim petition. However, the proceedings before the Tribunal are not strictly as that of the Civil Court and the powers of the Tribunal, while adjudicating the claim petition are summary power. Therefore, strict rules of evidence as applicable to the Civil Court while trying the suit may not apply in every case in the proceedings before the Tribunal. It may be that in normal circumstances, the Tribunal would be guided by the provisions of the law on the aspects of fact to be proved as per the Evidence Act, but such cannot be read as a sine qua non principle in every case. If the Tribunal finds that there is authenticated reliable material, it can be considered as a corroborative evidence on the aspects of disability, keeping in view the deposition of the claimant on the aspects of injury and gravity of such injury. At this stage, it would be profitable to refer to the decision of the Division Bench of this Court in case of United India Insurance Co. Ltd. v. Udaysinh Chandansinh Thakor and Ors. and more particularly, the observations made at Para 7 of the said decision, wherein the view taken is that strict rules of evidence would not apply in the proceedings before the Tribunal so as to result into creating a situation of hyper-technical view.
