Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the termination of the workman, Shri Brijbhushan Yadav, was unjustified under Section 25-F of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, as he had worked for more than 240 days in the preceding twelve months without proper notice or retrenchment compensation. The Court reinstated the workman with full back-wages, overturning the High Court's decision that quashed the Tribunal's award. The judgment emphasized the necessity of adhering to statutory provisions regarding termination of services in industrial disputes.
