Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the State of Punjab's order reinstating the 1st respondent as a Welfare Officer was valid, as the 2nd respondent constituted a tribunal under Article 136(1) of the Constitution. The Court found that the requirement for the concurrence of the Labour Commissioner under Rule 6(3), Proviso 2, was valid and within the scope of the rule-making authority conferred by Section 49(2) of the Factories Act, 1948. The appeal was deemed competent, affirming the appellate authority's decision to reinstate the 1st respondent.
