A BENCH ALLOWED PLEA OF HIS MOTHER

SC revises compensation to over Rs 60 lakh to accident victim kin

The Supreme Court has enhanced the compensation in a two-decade-old motor accident case by awarding over Rs 60 lakh to the family of a 20-year-old youth who was left completely paraplegic and disabled after being run over by a car in 2001.

Sharad Singh, a 20-yearold final-year B Com student, eventually succumbed to illness in 2021 after two decades of immobility. His mother, acting as his legal representative, pursued the appeal before the apex court.

A bench comprising Justices K Vinod Chandran and NV Anjaria, allowed the plea of his mother.

The victim sustained a fracture of the cervical vertebrae (C4-C5) after a car, driven rashly and negligently, hit the motorcycle on which he was riding pillion.
