Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the awards of the Labour Court which reinstated the Respondents, Badli Conductors, after their termination was found to violate principles of natural justice. The Court emphasized that the Respondents were entitled to a fair hearing before termination as per Section 11A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The appeal by the Appellant was dismissed, affirming the Labour Court's decision to reinstate the Respondents with full back wages.
