Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the termination of a daily wager conductor under the U.P. State Road Transport Corporation, emphasizing compliance with Section 6N of the U.P. Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The Court upheld the Labour Court's decision for reinstatement but modified the award to deny back wages, citing the distinction between regular employees and daily wagers. The Court concluded that while the appellant was entitled to reinstatement, he was not entitled to full wages due to his temporary status.
