Thank you, Maryam for the answer.

So, based on your answer, I want to ask: will he get any punishment? and how much amount should be asked for compensation as this is permanent disability?

The driver will be punished before the Traffic Court. The injured person should have a medical report and can file a case before the court against the driver and the insurance company which insured the car for compensation of damages, loss of income and personal injuries.

If you want a lawyer, you can contact me.
