Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Labour Court's decision that the termination of the respondent's services as a Beldar was in violation of Sections 25-G and 25-H of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, as it was found that junior employees were retained while the respondent was terminated. The Court affirmed the Labour Court's order for reinstatement but denied back wages due to the peculiar circumstances of the case. The appeal was dismissed, and the appellant was directed to issue an appointment order within one month.
