JUDGEMENT
Guman Mal Lodha, J. -
(1.)THIS appeal is directed against the award dated 15th April, 1982 passed by the Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal, Jaipur in an accident which took place on 4th November, 1979.
(2.)RAMESH Chand alias Chhaganlal met with an accident while driving the motor cycle No. RSL 5457 at about 3.45 p.m. on 4th November, 1979. His younger brother Sualal was sitting behind him on the motor cycle. They started their journey from village Mamoria and they were on the road of Saranpura.
