Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the termination of the appellant-workman by the respondent-firm violated Section 6N of the Uttar Pradesh Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, as it was executed without following mandatory procedures. The Labour Court's order for reinstatement and 50% back wages was initially upheld, but the High Court modified this to a compensation of Rs. 2 lakhs. The Supreme Court reinstated the Labour Court's decision, emphasizing the need for adherence to statutory provisions in termination cases.
