DIRECTOR, HORTICULTURE PUNJAB vs JAGJIVAN PARSHAD

The Supreme Court held that the Punjab and Haryana High Court's dismissal of the writ petition challenging the Labour Court's Award under Section 10(1)(C) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 was unsustainable due to lack of reasoning. The Court emphasized the necessity for courts to provide clear reasons in their judgments, especially when contentious issues are involved. The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order, highlighting the non-application of mind in the absence of a reasoned judgment.
