Aadhaar card not reliable proof of age in accident compensation cases: Chhattisgarh HC
The high court ruled insurance liability begins with policy issuance, not premium payment. An insurer cannot be held liable for accidents occurring before the policy's effective date.

Compensation amounts were significantly enhanced for victims and deceased individuals in connected claims. The court dismissed appeals from the driver and owner while partially allowing claimant appeals.
