Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the validity of the sanction for prosecution under Section 34 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, against the appellants for failing to implement a Labour Court award. The Court emphasized that the sanctioning authority must consider all relevant facts, and in this case, it was found that the authority acted appropriately. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower courts' decisions that the sanction was not vitiated by illegality.
