Delhi HC: MACT cannot decide contractual insurance claims under personal accident cover, says claim must be pursued before competent forum
Justice Anish Dayal dismissed an appeal challenging the rejection of a compensation claim by the MACT, holding that the Tribunal's jurisdiction is confined to statutory claims under the Motor Vehicles Act and cannot be expanded to determine purely contractual disputes arising under an insurance policy.
