Latifan vs Jangsher Singh And Others on 4 July, 2013

This contention of the counsel for the appellant cannot be accepted in the light of the judgment of the Supreme Court in the case of State of Punjab and others vs. Bhajan Kaur and others, 2008 AIR (SC) 2276 and Pepsu Road Transport Corporation Patiala vs. Kulwant Kaur and others, 2009(4) SCC 32, wherein it has been held that Section 140 of the 1988 Act was amended on 14.11.1994 and the said amendment would be prospective and not retrospective. That being so, enhancement of compensation, as prayed for under the 'no fault liability' clause as provided under Section 140 of the 1988 Act, cannot be granted as the accident took place on 14.05.1989, which is prior to the date of amendment brought about in Section 140 of the 1988 Act.
