Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court modified the High Court's order regarding back wages in the case of Civil Appeal No. 1266 of 2008, stating that the legal heirs of the deceased respondent are entitled to 50% of back wages instead of the full amount previously awarded. The Court emphasized that the deceased did not work during the relevant period, justifying the reduction in back wages. The appeal was disposed of with no order as to costs.
