The claimant-respondents No. 1 to 4 preferred a claim-petition before the learned Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Tonk, which after receiving the evidence and hearing both the sides, awarded a total compensation of Rs. 3,30,000/- in favour of the claimant respondents No. 1 to 4 vide its judgment and award dated 19th November, 1993.
