The Motor Accident Claims Tribunal (MACT) in Maharashtra's Thane has ordered an insurance company and a truck owner to pay a compensation of nearly Rs 29 lakh to the family of a pharmacist who was killed in a road accident in 2020, reported news agency PTI.

The order was passed on Tuesday by the tribunal presided over by member R V Mohite.
