Sweet Confectionary vs S.M. Khot & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed an appeal concerning an interim order from the High Court related to the reinstatement of employees under Section 25-F of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The Labour Court had ruled in favor of the employees, confirming that the provisions of Section 25-F were not complied with, leading to their reinstatement with back wages. The Supreme Court directed the High Court to expedite the main matter's disposal within six months while allowing the continuation of interim relief under Section 17-B of the Act. The appeal was disposed of without commenting on the merits of the case.
