Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Rajasthan High Court which dismissed the appeal of the Rajasthan State Road Transport Corporation against the Labour Court's ruling that set aside the termination of a conductor for misconduct. The court found that the departmental inquiry was flawed, and the Labour Court's decision to allow the workman to prove his case was justified. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the Labour Court's order.
