Motor Owners Insurance Co. Ltd vs Jadavji Keshavji Modi & Ors on 29 September, 1981
9. Reference in this connection may be made to Motor Owners' Insurance Co. Ltd. v. Jadavji Keshavji Modi, AIR 1981 SC 2059 ; [1982] 52 Comp Cas 454 (SC), where Section 95(2)(a) came in for consideration by the court. The Supreme Court, after considering the matter in detail, came to the conclusion that the expression " any one accident " in Section 95(2) and consequent liability to the extent of Rs. 50,000 " in all " used in Section 95(2)(a) must mean an accident not from the point of view of the vehicle but from the point of view of each individual person who is injured or who loses his life and " in all " also refers to each such individual separately. Analysis of the provisions cannot be put in better language than used by the Supreme Court itself which may be quoted below, (at pp. 463 and 464 of 52 Comp Cas):
