Supreme Court: Consider hiking hit-&-run payouts in 8 weeks

IndiaTimes Saturday, 13 January 2024
Expressing serious concern about the wide gap between the number of hit-and-run accidents in the past five years and the minuscule number of victims' kin getting a paltry compensation of Rs 2 lakh each, the Supreme Court on Friday mandated the police to inform the kin of such accident victims about availability of compensation scheme under the Motor Vehicle Act. As per the ministry, there were 55,942 hit and run motor accidents in 2016, which increased to 65,186 in 2017, 69,621 in 2018, and 69,621 in 2019.
