Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the Industrial Tribunal's award quashing the termination of the respondent-workman, finding the termination due to alleged misconduct was not justified. The Court affirmed the High Court's dismissal of the appellant-Corporation's writ petition but modified the award regarding back wages, substituting it with a compensation of Rs. 5 lakhs. The Court directed the Corporation to reinstate the workman and pay the compensation within four weeks, adjusting any prior payments made.
