Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's order directing the re-instatement of the employee under the U.P. State Road Transport Corporation without back wages, affirming the findings of the Labour Court that the employee's misconduct was established. The Court noted that the disciplinary proceedings were conducted in accordance with law, and the employee's dismissal was justified based on the evidence presented. The appeals by the Corporation against the re-instatement were dismissed, reinforcing the principle that reinstatement does not necessarily entail back wages in cases of misconduct.
