Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the reinstatement of workmen by the Central Government Industrial Tribunal, affirming the High Court's decision to restore the Tribunal's award. The court emphasized the necessity of following statutory recruitment procedures as mandated by the Employment Exchange (Compulsory Notification of Vacancies) Act, 1959, particularly in relation to the recruitment of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. The appeal by the Management of Bharat Coking Coal Limited was dismissed, reinforcing the rights of the workmen to fair employment practices.
