Dog bite
The dog belongs to the my Landlord and bit me on my face. I am living as tenant on top floor. I went through the plastic surgery in AIIMS, Delhi, for cut nose cartilage and lips. The dog has history of aggression and was open when he bit me inside their living room. They always keep the dog open insipte of number of incident of him bitting . A very irresponsible and criminal behaviour of the dog owner as after my hospital discharge they were still not ready to keep him in lease or inside their house. I was in Trauma and could not open my door to go out. Also I have lodged a FIR. After my compalin to police they threw the dog out of the house on road (claiming that dog doesnt belong to them). But now they have taken him back in the house. Dog is a local breed and they do not have any licence too. Also, did not bear full medical expenses and moral support. I am a single lady living alone in house for past 1.5 years where Landlord/ his wife/ son/ dauter in law/ grand children live on ground and first floor. Do I need to register a civil case for compensation or it can be done in this case only. I need to know the maximum compensation that can be awarded in this dog bite case.
