Over Rs 57L compensation for man left bedridden after accidents: Why Madras HC stepped in

The Madras High Court significantly increased motor accident compensation for a man left completely unresponsive after two road accidents, from Rs 33 lakh to over Rs 57 lakh. The court invoked suo motu powers, criticizing the victim's advocate for not seeking enhanced compensation. The victim suffered severe spinal injuries in a second accident while being transported after the first.
