Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Punjab and Haryana High Court dismissing the writ petition against an award under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, which directed the reinstatement of the respondent workman with full back wages. The Court noted that while there was a technical violation of Section 25F of the Act, the financial difficulties of the cooperative society did not justify the denial of reinstatement. The Court emphasized that the respondent's termination was unjustified and that the society's claims of financial distress were not substantiated by the evidence presented.
