Perused the impugned award.

Learned Advocate for the appellant - insurance company submits to have a very good case in appeal. According to him, it was a private auto-rickshaw carrying passengers on fare. It is a breach of conditions of the terms of the policy of the insurance. According to him, First Information Report (FIR) was lodged very late. That indicates the involvement of the vehicle in the accident is suspicious.
