'If accident victim disabled 100%, be liberal with damages'

Remarking that courts should take a liberal view in awarding compensation to victims who are left 100% disabled and also suffer mental disabilities after road accidents, the Supreme Court on Tuesday extended its helping hand to one such child and awarded Rs 50 lakh compensation with 7.5% interest per annum. The total amount could come to about Rs 1 crore as the accident took place in 12 years ago.
