Oriental Insurance Company Ltd vs Devireddy Konda Reddy & ... on 24 January, 2003

11. Section 147 of the Act mandates compulsory coverage against death of or bodily injury to any passenger of "public service vehicle". The proviso makes it further clear that compulsory coverage in respect of drivers and conductors of public service vehicle and employees carried in goods vehicle would be limited to liability under the Workmen's Compensation Act, 1923. The provisions of the Act do not enjoin any statutory liability on the owner of a vehicle to get his vehicle insured for any passenger traveling in a goods carriage and the insurer would have no liability therefor. The said proposition of law was laid in Oriental Insurance Company Ltd. v. Devi Reddy Konda Reddy . The goods carriage carrying any passenger is not contemplated under the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988.

Manuara Khatun & Ors vs Rajesh Kr. Singh & Ors on 21 February, 2017

5. Sri Venkateswar Varanasi, learned counsel for the appellant contended that the Tribunal dismissed the claim against the insurance company on the ground that the appellant traveled in the tractor- trailer as an unauthorized passenger. To substantiate his argument, the learned counsel placed reliance on the decision in Manuara Khatun v. Rajesh Kumar Singh and submitted that in Manuara Khatun, the deceased was a gratuitous passenger, but however, the Honble Supreme Court granted compensation in that case holding that the liability of the insurance company cannot be exonerated and, therefore, sought for ordering pay and recovery against the 2nd respondent in the present case.
