UTTARANCHAL FOREST DEV. CORPN. vs JABAR SINGH .

The Supreme Court upheld the validity of the retrenchment of daily wage workers by the U.P. Forest Corporation, confirming compliance with Section 6-N of the U.P. Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The Court found that the High Court's decision to reinstate the workers was erroneous as the provisions of Section 25N were not applicable, given that the Corporation did not qualify as an industrial establishment under Section 25L. The Court reversed the High Court's order and maintained the Labour Court's award, thereby dismissing the writ petitions filed by the workers.
