Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that the termination of a workman under Section 6-N of the U.P. Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, which is equivalent to Section 25F of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, requires adherence to specific procedural safeguards. The Court upheld the Labour Court's decision to reinstate the workman and grant back wages, emphasizing that the workman had worked for more than 240 days in the relevant period, thus qualifying for protection under the Act. The appeal by the employer was dismissed, affirming the lower court's findings.
