PRESENT:

Sri Pramod Kumar Mishra, Presiding Officer

On Perusal of the case record I find that my predecessor (Late Jayanta Kumar Sen, the then P.O.) had reserved this case for an award because the workman neither appeared nor took any step since long despite registered notices. It seems that the workman has now no more interest left to proceed with this case further. The case is also too old – in the year 2000 and I find no reason to keep this old record pending without any result. As such the case is closed and accordingly a 'No Dispute Award' may be passed.

PRESIDING OFFICER:

10. Point No.2- In view of my finding in Point No.1, charges alleged against workman are not proved by management, question arises whether workman is entitled for reinstatement with full back wages. As charges against workman are not proved, the punishment of his dismissal cannot be sustained. Workman is therefore entitled for his reinstatement. With regard to claim for back wages, there is no cogent evidence adduced by either parties whether workman was in gainful employment when no cogent evidence is adduced by workman about his unemployment during whole period.

In Negative

(ii) If not, what relief the workman As per final is entitled to?" order.

REASONS

7. Ist party workman has raised dispute for denial of notional fixation of his wages after he was declared unfit for tub loader job and conversion allowed for job of General Mazdoor. The claim is denied by IInd party.

8. Workman filed affidavit of his evidence supporting his contentions in statement of claim. That he was working as tub loader. He suffered minor injury on 13-6-89. He was receiving treatment in rehabilitation centre for 18 months. He was discharged on 9-10-90. He was examined by Medical Board and found unfit for job of tub loader. He was allowed conversion to the post of General Mazdoor. Notional fixation was not allowed to him. On 9-1-94, he was promoted as explosive career Category II. In his cross- examination workman says he is working as Explosive Career Category IV. He was appointed as tub loader working underground. It is heavy work. Job of General Mazdoor is light, work of tub loader is piece rated. After accident on 14-6-89, he was admitted in hospital. He was examined by Medical Board- permanent disability of 8 % was considered. He was allowed alternate job as General Mazdoor. He was promoted as Explosive career category II on 9-1-94. At the time of conversion, his wages for tub loader were not considered.

9. The documents produced by workman Exhibit W-1 to W-7 are relating to his treatment and injury reports. Exhibit W-8 is certificate of medical board. Workman was found fit for alternate job on surface as General Mazdoor on 9-2-91. Workman was found unfit for job of loader. Exhibit W-9 is order of promotion of workman and others dated 9-1-94. Exhibit W-10 is copy of settlement dated 1-10-92 settled before ALC. Demand No.1 agreed between Union and management provides that management shall provide alternate job to the employees particularly loaders who are physically week due to their old age, sickness irrespective of vacancies. Clause 1.3 reads management shall on conversion from PR to TR/MR will fully protect the group wages including SPRA wherever applicable. The basic pay so fixed in the TR/MR category grade if exceeds the maximum of the category grade, the balance will be treated as personal pay to the person concerned which shall be adjusted in the subsequent revision of pay/ promotion. Exhibit W-10 is admitted by management. Workman was denied its benefit.

10. The evidence of management's witness Shri P.K. Tripathi supporting contentions of management. Management's witness stated w.e.f. 9-9-94, on completion of date of regularisation, workman is paid wages of Category II. The modification will be prospective and piece rated workman who had come in time rated monthly rated category have already been paid till 30-10-95. According to Tripartite settlement dated 2-11-92 with RKKMS, note of discussion dated 17-7-93 will continue to be paid as per item No. 1.3 of settlement. Management's witness in his cross-examination says he ws not working in Ambara Sub area during 84 to 94. The provisions of NCWA are applicable to IInd party. Workman is promoted as Explosive career Category II from 19-1-94. Workman was paid wages of said category. Workman was not allowed pay protection at the time of conversion.

11. Management produced documents Exhibit M-2 to M-7. Workman had given consent vide Exhibit M-1. That he was ready to work as General Mazdoor. That he had no objection receiving basic wages of Category I. when document Exhibit W-10 clearly provides for protection of wages at time of conversion obtaining such undertaking from workman by management cannot be said proper. For above reasons, I record my finding in Point No.1 in negative.

12. Point No.2- from evidence of workman and documents Exhibit W-10 reproduced supra, workman is entitled to protection of wages of the post of tub loader. Accordingly I record my finding in Point No.2.

13. In the result, award is passed as under:-

(1) The action of the management of Western Coalfields Ltd. Kanhan Area i.e. Manager, Ambara Colliery, WCL, Kanhan Area PO Ambara Distt. Chhindwara (MP) in not giving notional fixation to Shri Chetanram S/o Roopram, Exposive Carrier of Ambara Colliery is not legal.

(2) IInd party is directed to allow protection of wages of post of tub loader of workman from the date of his conversion to post of General Mazdoor Category I. Difference of wages be paid to workman within two months from date of publication of award.

In case of default, amount shall carry 9 % interest

per annum from the date of award till its realization.

14. Let the copies of the award be sent to the Government of India, Ministry of Labour & Employment as per rules.

In exercise of powers conferred by clause (d) of Sub- section (1) and Sub-section 2(A) of Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947(14 of 1947), Govt. of India through the Ministry of Labour vide its letter No. L-22012/ 280/98/IR (CM-II) dated 05.05.1999 has been pleased to refer the following dispute for adjudication by this Tribunal.

laps of 2 years, offer of employment not given to the dependent of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian. Therefore Koyala Mazdoor Congress, being a registered trade union raised an Industrial Dispute before the ALC(C), Raniganj on 17.02.1998. The said dispute failed. It has been prayed the Tribunal may kindly direct the management of Khas Kajora Colliery to provide employment to Sri. Deb Prasad Manjhi the dependent of the deceased and management should also be directed to pay adequate compensation for the abnormal delay in disposing the claim.

SCHEDULE

"Whether the action of the management of Khas Kajora Colliery, Kajora Area of M/s. ECL in not providing employment to the dependent of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhain, Ex-Wagon Loader, is legal and justified ? If not, to what relief is the dependent of the ex-workman entitled ?"

Having received the Order No. L-22012/280/98/IR (CM-II) dated 05.05.1999 of the above said reference from the Govt. of India, Ministry of Labour, New Delhi for adjudication of the dispute, a reference case No. 40 of 1999 was registered on 07.06.1999. Accordingly an order to that effect was passed to issue notices through the registered post to the parties concerned, directing them to appear in the court, on the date fixed and to file their written statements along with the relevant documents and a list of witnesses in support of their claims. In pursuance of the said order notices by the registered post were sent to the parties concerned. Both the parties appeared in the Tribunal, through their representative.

Written statement filed by the dependent of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian, he has stated that Smt. Bijali Mejhian was a permanent employee of Khas Kajora Colliery, having her designation as Wagon Loader, Identity Card No. 13597 Form 'B' No. 548 and CMPF A/C. No. B/593160. Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian died on 21.12.1995 while she was in service. Deputy Medical Superintendent of Khas Kajora Colliery has issued Death Certificate of Smt. Bijali Mejhian on 21.12.1995. In terms of provisions contained in clause 9.4.2 of NCWA-IV and NCWA-V. As per NCWA agreement the dependent of deceased employee is entitled for employment in the company and accordingly her son Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi applied for employment and submitted all relevant papers and documents. The husband of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhain named Bijoy Prasad pre-deceased her on 26.06.1989. Except Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi no other member is dependent on Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian. After On other hand management has stated in his written statement that instant reference is bad in the eye of law. The reference is entirely misconceived one and cannot constitute any industrial dispute. Management has stated in his written statement that Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian was a permanent employee of the Khas Kajora Colliery, she was working as ex-wagon loader in the said colliery. Smt. Bijali Mejhian during her service submitted an application for V.R. under F.V.R. scheme in January 1995, nominating a person alleging him to be Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi as her son. In the meantime another person claiming himself to be Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi applied for employment. His application forwarded to the Chief Vigilance Officer, ECL HQ, and the matter was taken by the Vigilance department. Meantime Smt. Bijali Mejhian expired on 21.12.1995. After her death union has raised an Industrial Dispute before the ALC(C), Raniganj, on behalf of said Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi for payment of gratuity. As per direction of controlling authority the gratuity and L.C.S. of late Smt. Bijali Mejhian was paid to aforesaid Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi. Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi could not establish relationship with Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian. He failed to establish proper identification as such the claim for employment was not considered and was rejected at screening level for want of sufficient proof. The management have or had no obligation to provide employment to a fake person whose relationship was at a great doubt and suspicious. The demand of the union is purely based on misrepresentation of the fact. It is denied the offer of employment was illegally denied by the management. Management has or had no liability to provide employment to the dependent of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian in terms of provision of class 9.4.2 of NCWA-IV. The action of the management of Khas Kajora Colliery, ECL, is totally justified in not providing employment to the dependent of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian.

Union has produced 10 Xerox copies of the documents. Dependent of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian, Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi has examined himself as witness. Neither any document has been filed nor any oral evidence has been adduced by the management.

I have heard the argument of Sri S. K. Pandey on behalf of the union/workman and Sri P. K. Das, Ld. Advocate on behalf of the management.

[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6909

It is not disputed that deceased workman Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian was permanent employee of Khas Kajora Colliery. It is also admitted fact that Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian died while she was in service as ex-wagon loader.

Reliance has been placed by the union on NCWA agreement IV & V. As per NCWA agreement in Para 9.3.0 it is provided that in case of death of any workman while in service the dependent of workman will be provided employment. The dependent for this purpose as described in the NCWA agreement means the wife or the husband as the case may be, unmarried daughter, son and legally adopted son. if no such direct dependent is available for the employment younger brother, widowed daughter, widowed daughter in law of son in law residing with the deceased and almost wholly depended on the earning of the deceased may be considered as dependent of the deceased.

Smt. Santra Manjhi are only legal heir. Other legal heirs have given no objection in writing for providing employment to him, besides he has filed indemnity form. Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi has been cross-examined on behalf of the management. In cross-examination he has not made any statement repugnant to the statement made in the examination in-chief.

There is no piece of evidence, that Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi is not the son of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian. I am unable to understand that when management paid entire gratuity amount to Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi as dependent of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian. Then on what basis the management was refusing Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi to be dependent of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian. Management has not produced the order of screening committee for non- entitlement of employment of Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi.

In view of the decision above I think it just and proper to direct management to provide employment to Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi, who is dependent of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian in lieu of death of Smt. Bijali Mejhian

ORDER

Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi has claimed job in Khas Kajora Colliery after the death of his mother Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian while she was in service. The Xerox copy of the service record of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian has been produced by the union. This record is maintained by ECL and it has been issued by ECL. The family composition shown in the service record of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian which is maintained by ECL Sri Vijay Dusad was her husband, Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi and Sri Madhab Chand Manjhi are sons of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian, Smt. Santara Manjhi is married daughter of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian. Controlling authority on the presentation of Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi, after hearing the management and Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi has passed the order for payment of gratuity to Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi, on merit. Controlling authority has passed the order on 12.09.2001. Controlling Authority, ALC(C) ordered for payment of gratuity for Rs. 53,661.60/- (Rupees Fifty Three Thousand Six Hundred Sixty One and Sixty Paise only) to Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi. Besides agent in Khas Kajora Colliery in his letter dated 14.08.2000 has admitted that as per service record Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi is son of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian.

The general principal of law of evidence is that, he who asserts must prove. In other words the burden of proof is obligation to adduce evidence to the satisfaction of Tribunal in order to establish the existence or non- existence of a fact contained by the party.

Sri Deb Prasad Manjhi has stated in his affidavit that he was born out of wed lock between his father Sri.Vijay Dusad and mother Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian. He have been made nominee in respect of C.M.P.F accumulation of Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian. Late Smt. Bijali Mejhian died on 21.12.1995 while she was in service as wagon loader. Husband of late Smt. Bijali Mejhian, Sri.Vijay Dusad died on 26.06.1989 before the death of Smt. Bijali Mejhian. After the death Sri Madhab Chand Manjhi and Let an "Award" be and the same is passed as per above discussion. Send the copies of the order to the Govt. of India, Ministry of Labour, New Delhi for information and needful. The reference is accordingly disposed of.

BEFORE DR. R. K. YADAV, PRESIDING OFFICER,

CENTRAL GOVT. INDUSTRIAL TRIBUNAL NO. I,

KARKARDOOMA COURTS COMPLEX, DELHI

I.D.No.174/2011

The President, FCI (Handling) Worker's Union, 8654, Arakashan Road, Paharganj, New Delhi-110055 ...Workman union raised a dispute before the Conciliation Officer, which dispute was contested by the Corporation. Resultantly, conciliation proceedings failed. On consideration of failure report, submitted by the Conciliation Officer, the appropriate Government referred the dispute to Central Government Industrial Tribunal No.II, New Delhi, for adjudication, vide order No.L-22012/ 235/2006-IR(CM-II), New Delhi, dated 10.9.2007, with following terms of reference:

Versus

The Chairman–cum–Managing Director, Food Corporation of India, 16-20, Barakhamba Lane, New Delhi-110001.

...Management "Whether the demand of the Union for not allowing 12 days Casual Leave in a calendar year as per Certified Standing Orders to workers other than Departmentalized Labour by the Management of FCI is legal and justified ? If so, to what relief are the workmen entitled ?"

AWARD

Food Corporation of India (in short the Corporation) was set up by the Central Government under the provisions of Food Corporation of India Act, 1964 for the purpose of procurement, storage, preservation, salvaging, weighing, standardization, transportation and distribution of food grains through public distribution system in the country. The Corporation employs workers in its various establishments/depots, railheads and offices to do handling operations of food grains. Workers, so engaged, are of following categories:

i. Departmentalized workers,

ii. Direct payment system workers,

iii. No work no pay system workers, and

iv. Management Committee system workers

2. The management committee system of labour remained in operation till 01.11.1994. With effect from 01.11.1994, workers of management committee system were upgraded to workers of direct payment system, vide memorandum of settlement signed on that date between the Corporation and the unions, with a view to eliminate management committee system of workers from all the depots. Since 01.11.1994, management committee system of labour is not prevalent in any depot of the Corporation.

3. The Corporation got standing orders certified from the Certifying Officer, which are applicable to its establishments in North, East and NEF Zones, where departmentalized workers are employed. Certified standing orders are not made applicable to direct payment system and no work no pay system workers. FCI (Handling) Workers Union (in short the union) made efforts to claim parity in the matter of wages and fringe benefits, besides 12 days casual leave in a year, as applicable to departmentalized workers, for workers of direct payment system and no work no pay system. A demand was raised in that regard, which was not conceded to by the Corporation. Constrained by these circumstances, the 4. Claim statement was filed by the union, pleading that the Corporation employs food handling workers in the categories of departmentalized workers, direct payment system workers, no work no pay system workers and management committee system workers at its various food storage depots. Workers of the aforesaid categories are workmen within the meaning of section 2(s) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947(in short the Act), claims the union. The Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946(in short the Standing Orders Act) also defines workman as a person who falls within the ambit of 'workman' as defined by the Act. Therefore, all categories of employees, employed by the Corporation at its various food storage depots, are workmen. The Corporation got standing order certified under the Standing Orders Act. However, applicability of certified standing orders have been restricted by the Corporation only to category of departmentalized workers, on the strength of its letter No.IR(L)/3(1)88 dated 25.11.1999. Provisions of certified standing orders are not made applicable to the categories of workers working under direct payment system, no work no pay system and management committee system. By way of restricting applicability of certified standing orders to departmentalized workers only, the Corporation had denied benefit of 12 days casual leaves in a year to the workers working under direct payment system, no work no pay system and management committee system. The union raised a demand on the Corporation claiming parity for direct payment system, no work no pay system and management committee system of workers with departmentalized workers in the matter of casual leaves available to them. The said demand was not conceded to. Act of the Corporation in denying 12 days casual leave to other categories of workers than the departmentalized workers is denial of their legitimate rights. Under Clause 13(2)(a) of the certified standing orders, applicable in the establishment of the Corporation, a workman is entitled to 12 days casual leave in a year. The union claims that an award may be passed in favour of the workmen, falling[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6911 under the category of direct payment system, no work no pay system and management committee system, holding them entitled to 12 days casual leave in a calendar year, besides grant of 12 days wages for every calendar year with effect from the date when certified standing orders came into operation in the establishment of the Corporation.

5. Demurral was made by the Corporation, pleading that by way of present industrial dispute, relief has been claimed under the Standing Orders Act, which Act is a self contained code. Provisions of the Standing Orders Act deals with issues relating to implementation of service conditions of industrial employees under the said Act and such issues can be agitated before the forum provided there under and not before this Tribunal. Direct payment system, no work no pay system and management committee system workers are recognized by the settlements entered into between the unions and the Corporation from time to time. The union filed a writ petition, being WP(C) No. 422 of 2000 in the Apex Court, seeking wages at par with departmentalized workers for direct payment system, no work no pay system and management committee system workers, employed at 223 depots of the Corporation. The Apex Court, vide its order dated 05.04.2002, ruled that justification and expediency of continuance of direct payment system of labour, recognized by various settlements, is to be looked into and facts of the dispute raised by the union can be raised before an industrial adjudicator under the Act. At present, the said dispute is sub-judice before the National Industrial Tribunal Mumbai as ID No.1/2003 wherein parity in wages and fringe benefits for direct payment system, no work no pay system and management committee system workers have been claimed to that of the wages and fringe benefits available to departmentalized labour. Proceedings in the said dispute are fixed for 03.11.2011. In view of these facts, the present dispute is incompetent.

6. As the Apex Court ruled that direct payment system is recognized labour system, the Corporation submitted draft standing orders in respect of direct payment system workers before the Certifying Officer under the provisions of the Standing Orders Act since the existing standing orders were not applicable to that category of workers. The Certifying Officer, vide his order dated 25.08.2008, granted liberty to seek modification in the existing certified standing orders, but refused to certify the draft standing orders on the ground that there cannot be two separate standing orders in one establishment. The Corporation filed an appeal against the said order before the Appellate Authority, which appeal pends adjudication. The union has also filed an appeal against the order dated 25.08.2008. FCI Workers Union has also filed an appeal against that order, which appeal is also sub-judice. The issue as to the applicability of existing certified standing orders to direct payment system workers pends adjudication before the High Court of Delhi in civil writ petition No.1676 of 2008. In view of the aforesaid facts, present proceedings are liable to be dismissed.

7. The Corporation projects that the union, a splinter group of FCI Workers Union, is not competent to raise a dispute on behalf of direct payment system, no work no pay system and management committee system workers. The Corporation pleads that no worker under the management committee system has been engaged by it. Labour system such as departmentalized workers, direct payment system and no work no pay system are recognized and governed by the settlements signed between it and the labour unions from time to time. The Corporation disputes that workers of the category of direct payment system, and no work no pay system are eligible to get 12 days casual leave in a year. It has been claimed that the dispute raised is not legally competent, hence it may be dismissed.

8. Vide order No.Z-22019/6/2007-IR(C-II) dated 30.03.2011, the appropriate Government transferred the dispute to this Tribunal for adjudication.

9. Shri Mehboob Alam and Shri Hari Kant Sharma entered the witness box to testify facts on behalf of the union. Shri Tej Singh gave evidence on behalf of the Corporation. No other witness was examined by either of the parties.

10. Arguments were heard at the bar. None appeared on behalf of the union to advance arguments on its behalf. Shri Om Prakash, authorized representatives, advanced arguments on behalf of the Corporation. I have given my careful considerations to the arguments advanced at the bar and cautiously perused the records. My findings on issues involved in the controversy are as follows:

11. In its written statement, the Corporation pleaded that a dispute is sub-judice before the National Industrial Tribunal, Mumbai, as ID No.1/2003 wherein parity in wages and fringe benefits for direct payment system, no work no pay system and management committee system workers have been claimed to that of wages and fringe benefits available to departmentalized labour. It has been contended by the Corporation that 12 days casual leave in a calendar year is part of fringe benefits, in respect of which dispute has been referred for adjudication to National Industrial Tribunal, Mumbai. Out of its pleadings, Corporation wants to project that on a dispute being referred for adjudication to the National Industrial Tribunal, this Tribunal cannot exercise its jurisdiction over the matter, since the present dispute shall be deemed to have been quashed on reference of dispute being made to the National Industrial Tribunal, Mumbai. Issues so raised by the Corporation were considered and adjudicated by this Tribunal vide order dated 22.09.2011 wherein findings were recorded against the Corporation, which findings have been extracted hereunder:

6912 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]

"9. Sub-section (1A) of section 10 of the Act empowers the Central Government to refer an "industrial dispute" or any matter appearing to be connected with or relevant to that dispute in the Second Schedule or Third Schedule to a National Industrial Tribunal for adjudication irrespective of the fact whether or not it is the "appropriate Government" in relation to that dispute. But before the Central Government can make a reference, it must have formed its opinion that:

(1) There is a dispute which satisfies the requirement of an industrial dispute as defined in section 2 (k) of the Act.

(i) Such industrial dispute exists or is at least apprehended at the time of making the reference,

(ii) Such dispute (a) involves any question of national importance, or (b) is of such a nature that industrial establishment situated in more than one State are likely to be interested in or affected by such dispute, and

(2) The dispute should be adjudicated upon by a National Tribunal.

10. Provisions of sub-section (6) of section 10 of the Act are devised with a view to avoid multiplicity of proceedings which may result from a reference to the National Tribunal. The provisions contained therein bar adjudication upon any matter by a Labour Court or Industrial Tribunal, when such a matter has been referred for adjudication to a National Tribunal under sub-section (1A) of section 10 of the Act. Non-obstante clause makes it implicit that irrespective of the other provisions of the Act, it is the National Tribunal alone which will be seized of the matter referred to it to the complete exclusion of adjudication by other adjudicatory authorities under the Act.

11. Provisions of clause (a) of sub-section (6) of section 10 of the Act contemplate that if the matter referred to the National Tribunal under sub section (1A) is at the time of such reference pending in or before a Labour Court or Industrial Tribunal, the proceedings before such Labour Court or Tribunal, as the case may be, in so far it relates to such matter shall be deemed to have been quashed. Sub clause (b) of the aforesaid section bars the appropriate Govt. from making a reference to a Labour Court or an Industrial Tribunal for adjudication during the pendency of the proceedings in relation to such matter before the National Tribunal. The effect of the said clause is that if a such matter is referred to adjudication, the order of reference shall be void ab inito and the Labour Court or the Industrial Tribunal shall have no jurisdiction to proceed with the adjudication.

12. Whether provisions of sub-section (6) of section 10 of the Act come in to play, in the present controversy? As noted above the appropriate Govt. referred the dispute of workers working under Direct Payment System, No Work No Pay System and Management Committee System relating to their entitlement for same pay and other benefits as are available to the departmentalized labour in various depots of the Corporation through out the country. The reference order makes it clear that the workers of above categories claim parity with departmentalized labour for their pay and other benefits. Claim filed before the National Tribunal projects that the parity in pay and other benefits is demanded on account of similar work and responsibilities performed by them. The expression "other benefits" would certainly encompass casual leave in it. In the reference under consideration the Handling Union demands for 12 days causal leave in a calendar year as per Certified Standing Orders to the workers other than departmentalized labour.

13. Whether reference orders, referred above, project that the National Tribunal as well as this Tribunal are going to adjudicate upon one and the same matter. In the reference before the National Tribunal claim of pay and other benefits is based on parity with the departmentalized labour. Therefore the cause of action or apprehension of an industrial dispute was perceived by the appropriate Govt. as to be based on demand relating to parity of pay and other benefits with that of the departmentalized labour. Hence it is clear that the National Tribunal is seized with a dispute which is based on a claim seeking parity in pay and other benefits with departmentalized labour. The present reference makes it clear that the Handling Union demands twelve days causal leave in a calendar year to workers other then departmentalized labour, in pursuance of Certified Standing Orders. Therefore the dispute under reference, though relating to 12 days causal leave, which forms part of other benefits, is based on the Certified Standing Orders, framed under the Industrial Employment (standing Orders) Act, 1946, Certified Standing Orders have force of law. It may encourage any one to say that the claim before this Tribunal is based on service conditions, guaranteed by the Standing Orders.

14. Law recognizes a right in favour of a litigant to base his case on all or any one of the causes of action available to him. Different causes of action may arise in favour of a party, when some wrong has been caused to him. For example, if one is dispossessed from his immovable property he may sue his opponent for possession under section 6 of the Specify Relief Act, 1963, may also sue, based on[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6913 previous possession and not on title as contemplated by Article 64 and can also maintain a suit for possession based on title as enacted by Article 65 of the Limitation Act, 1963. He can maintain suit for possession of the said immovable property on above causes of action, which are independent of each other. Likewise a landlord may seek possession of the tenanted accommodation from his tenant on different grounds, enacted under the tenancy laws. There would be no bar to different suits or petitions to seek possession of the immovable property or tenanted premises, as the case may be. In the same manner demand of 12 days causal leaves in a calendar year is based on different propositions viz. (I) parity with the departmentalized labour, and (II) based on service conditions, guaranteed by the Certified Standing Orders.

15. Whether claim of 12 days casual leave in a calendar year as per Certified Standing Orders was preferred to the National Tribunal for adjudication? As detailed above, claim of pay and other benefits in parity with departmentalized labour was referred for adjudication to the National Tribunal. Would claim of 12 days casual leave as per Certified Standing Orders fall within to ambit of "such matters", as provided in sub-clause (b) of sub section (6) of section 10 of the Act? For an answer it would be expedient to construe the above phrase used in sub-section (6), which is reproduced thus:

"(6) Where any reference has been made under sub- section (1A) to a National Tribunal then notwithstanding anything contained in this Act, no Labour Court or Tribunal shall have jurisdiction to adjudicate upon any matter which is under adjudication before the National Tribunal, and accordingly,—

phrase "such matter" which has been referred for adjudication to a National Tribunal would include the matter which was under consideration before the Central Govt., when it formed opinions as contemplated by sub-section (1A) of section 10 of the Act. The matter which was not under consideration before the Central Govt. and not referred for adjudication fall outside the purview of the phrase "such matter". Any matter, which creeps subsequently and is distinct and different than the matter referred for adjudication to the National Tribunal, would not fall within the ambit of phrase "such matter" as used in sub clause (b) of the aforesaid sub-section.

17. At the cost of repetition, it is said that the matter relating to demand of 12 days casual leave, as per Certified Standing Orders, is not pending adjudication before the National Tribunal. On this cause of action, the Handling Union has raised a demand and apprehending existence of an industrial dispute, it was referred to this Tribunal for adjudication. This dispute does not fall within the mischief of the phrase "such matter", as used in sub clause (b) of sub-section (6) of section 10 of the Act. Hence neither sub clause (b) nor sub-clause (a) of aforesaid sub-section has any application. The dispute referred to this Tribunal is distinct and different to the dispute which has been referred for adjudication to the National Tribunal. The appropriate Govt. was competent to make a reference of the dispute to this Tribunal for adjudication."

12. Next count of attack was made by the Corporation, pleading that issues relating to implementation of service conditions of industrial employees are to be governed under the Standing Orders Act, when Certified Standing Orders have been certified for the establishment of the Corporation. The Standing Orders Act is a self contained Code and issues which fall within the purview of Standing Orders Act can be agitated before the forum provided by the said Act and not before this Tribunal. This contention, raised by the Corporation, would be addressed to in the light of the provisions of Standing Orders Act.

(a) If the matter under adjudication before the National Tribunal is pending in a proceeding before a Labour Court or Tribunal, the proceeding before the Labour Court or the Tribunal, as the case may be, in so far as it relates to such matter, shall be deemed to have been quashed on such reference to the National Tribunal; and

(b)It shall not be lawful for the appropriate Government to refer the matter under adjudication before the National Tribunal to any Labour Court or Tribunal for adjudication during the pendency of the proceeding in relation to such matter before the National Tribunal".

13. The Standing Orders Act was brought over the Statute Book with an object to have a uniform standing orders providing for matters enumerated in the schedule to the said Act. Once standing orders for an establishment come into force, there should not be different conditions of service for those who are employed before and those employed after the standing orders came into operation. Once the Standing Orders come into force, they bind all those in the employment of the concerned establishment. The purpose of the Standing Orders Act is to require employers to define with certainty conditions of service in their establishment, to reduce them to writing and to get 16. "Such matter" is key note of above two clauses of sub-section (6) of section 10 of the Act. Since the provisions of aforesaid two clauses oust jurisdictions of the adjudicatory authorities as well as of the appropriate Govt., as the case may be, hence are to be construed strictly. Therefore the6914 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)] them compulsorily certified with a view to avoid unnecessary industrial dispute. Of course, it is always desirable that such conditions be formally laid down and expressed with as great precision as possible.

14. Section 1 of the Standing Orders Act specifies that the said Act applies to whole of India to every industrial establishment wherein 100 or more workmen are employed or were employed on any day of the preceding 12 months when the Act came into force. Section 2 of the Act provides dictionary for the words such as Appellate Authority, appropriate Government, Certifying Officer, employer, industrial establishment, prescribed, standing orders, trade union, wages and workmen. Section 3 of the said Act casts an obligation on an employer to submit draft standing orders, proposed by him for adoption in the industrial establishment, to the Certifying Officer. Section 4 lays down conditions for certification of standing orders while section 5 casts a duty on the Certifying Officer to examine the question of fairness of the standing orders and thereafter to certify it after following procedures provided therein.

15. Section 6 of the Standing Orders Act creates a right of appeal against the order of the Certifying Officer, besides duties of the Appellate Authority to dispose of that appeal. Section 7 deals as to from which date standing orders would come into operation. Section 8 details that on being certified, Certifying Officer shall file copy of standing orders in the register kept for that purpose. Section 9 provides that text of the Certified Standing Orders shall be prominently posted by the employer on special boards to be maintained for that purpose. Section 10 of the said Act details duration for which certified stranding orders shall remain in force and as to how the same shall be modified.

16. Section 10 A of the said Act deals with right of subsistence allowance in favour of a workman suspended, pending investigation or enquiry into the complaint or charges of misconduct against him. Section 11 vests Certifying Officer and the Appellate Authority with powers of Civil Court for the purpose of receiving evidence, administering oath, enforcing attendance of witnesses and compelling discovery and production of documents, while dealing with application for certification of standing orders or an appeal against the orders of the Certifying Officer. Section 12 puts an embargo on oral evidence to be given in contradiction of standing orders certified under the said Act. Section 12A details that Model Standing orders shall have temporary application till standing orders are finally certified by the Certifying Officer.

17. Section 13 of the Standing Orders Act defines penalties and procedure for imposition of those penalties when an employer violates provisions of section 3 of section 10 of the said Act. Section 13 A enables an employer or workman or trade union to refer a question for adjudication to any one of the labour court relating to application or interpretation of standing order certified under the said Act. Section 13B of the said Act details that provisions of the Standing Orders Act shall not apply to certain industrial establishments, specified therein. Section 14 empowers an appropriate Government to exempt conditionally or unconditionally any industrial establishment from all or any of the provisions under the said Act. Section 14A empowers the appropriate Government to delegate its powers to the State Government or any officer or authority, as the case may be. The State Government may also delegate its powers to any officer or authority, as may be specified by way of notification. Section 15 of the said Act empowers the appropriate Government to make rules in respect of situations detailed therein.

18. As noted above, Standing Orders Act, deals with the proposition as to how standing orders would be certified by Certifying Office. It has also been provided therein that till standing orders are got certified by an employer for its establishment, Model Standing Orders would be applicable in that establishment. It has also been detailed therein that parties have right of appeal against the orders of the Certifying Officer and the Appellate Authority would deal with the appeals raised by the workman or employer, as the case may be. The period for which the standing order, certified by the Certifying Officer, shall remain in operation has been detailed in the Standing Orders Act. How standing orders can be modified is an area which has been dealt with by the Standing Orders Act. In case of violation of provisions of sections 3 and 10 of the Standing Orders Act, an employer may be prosecuted and punished in accordance with the procedure laid therein. These propositions make it apparent that the Standing Orders Act is a complete Code for the purpose of requiring an employer to define conditions of service in respect of his industrial employees with certainty, to reduce them in writing and to get them compulsorily certified. In case of a dispute relating to interpretation or application of standing orders, certified under the said Act, parties have been vested with a right to refer that question to a labour court constituted under the Act. Thus, it emerges that dispute relating to application or interpretation of the standing orders, certified under the Standing Orders Act, may be raised by a workman or an employer, as the case may be, before a Labour Court constituted, under the Act.

19. In the present controversy, a dispute has been raised by the union claiming 12 days casual leave in a calendar year for workers of direct payment system and no work no pay system. Gravamen of the dispute is as to whether denial of 12 days casual leaves in a calendar year as per Certified Standing Orders to the aforesaid category of employees is legal and justified. A right has been claimed by the union in favour of its members relating to applicability of standing orders, got certified by the[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6915 Corporation, for its depots in North, East and North East Frontier Zones. Such a right has been accorded by section 13A of the Standing Orders Act in favour of the workman or a trade union or the employer, which authorize them to refer a question relating to application or interpretation of standing orders to any one the Labour Courts constituted under the Act. Resultantly, contention raised by the Corporation that dispute cannot be raised before this Tribunal, constituted under provisions of the Act, is uncalled for.

20. The Corporation projects that a draft standing orders, enumerating conditions of services applicable to workers of direct payment system, was filed before the Certifying Officer for certification. The Certifying Officer rejected its request vide its order dated 25.08.2008. However, liberty was granted to seek modification in the existing certified standing orders. An appeal was filed by the Corporation before the Appellate Authority. The union also filed an appeal against the said order, besides an appeal preferred by FCI Workers union. The Corporation agitated that in view of pendancy of those appeals, dispute raised for adjudication to this Tribunal is incompetent.

21. During the course of adjudication, appeals, preferred by the Corporation, union and the FCI Workers Union, were disposed off by the Appellate Authority under the Standing Orders Act, vide its orders dated 17.10.2012. The Appellate Authority ruled that workers of direct payment system squarely fell within the ambit of definition of 'workman' as given by section 2(s) of the Act. The Appellate Authority also concluded that the standing orders of the Corporation are applicable to all its units, hence direct payment system workers are already covered by the definition of workman given in the certified standing orders. He ruled that it does not seem to be appropriate to have a separate standing orders for direct payment system workers. In view of above decision, direct payment system workers are held to be workmen within the ambit of Standing Orders Act and standing orders certified on 27.02.1998 and modified/approved on 31.08.1999 in the appeal are applicable to such employees.

22. In view of the orders passed by the Appellate Authority, it became crystal clear that the appeals raised by the Corporation, union and the FCI Workers Union under section 6 of the Standing Orders Act were disposed off by the Appellate Authority, vide its order dated 17.10.2012. The above adjudication by the Appellate Authority takes away the objection raised by the Corporation in that regard. Therefore, contention to the effect that due to pendancy of the appeal, present reference was not competent, is found to be untenable.

23. The Corporation pleads that the union, being a splinter group of FCI Workers Union is not competent to raise the present dispute. Facts to the effect that the union is a splinter group of FCI Workers Union are not dispelled. Now, it would be considered as to whether the union is competent to raise the dispute. For an answer, law is to be taken note of. In Food Corporation of India [1995 (71) FLR 278] , the Apex Court was confronted with a proposition as to how representative character of a trade union would be determined. In that case Food Corporation of India and the unions, representing the workmen in the establishment of Food Corporation of India, have agreed to follow "secret ballot system" for assessing the representative character of the trade unions. The Apex Court laid down as to how the method of secret ballot should be tailored to yield correct results. The Court ruled therein that the union/unions obtaining the highest numbers of votes in the process of election shall be given recognition by the Food Corporation of India for a period of five years, from the date of conferment of the recognition.

24. In All Orissa State Bank Officers case [1999 (1) DLR 271], the Orissa High Court rules that a recognized union, who has numerical support to represent and to speak on behalf of all workmen, has a right to represent the entire body of workmen. An unrecognized union has no right to represent the entire body of the workmen, but it may speak for or represent workmen, who are its members individually or as a group. In case of any conflict between demands of recognized union and demands of an unrecognized union the management can accept views of the recognized union but the management cannot deny or refuse to entertain any representation from or to enter into any dialogue or discussion with an unrecognized union in respect of grievances of any individual workman or a group of workmen belonging to the unrecognized union. Relying on the precedent in Balmer Lawrie Workers Union (AIR 1985 SC 311) the High Court ruled that acceptance of a demand on discussion over a demand is not the one and the same thing. Right of raising grievance and discussion is a fundamental right, which cannot be taken away totally. The High Court noted observation of the Apex Court in the precedent, referred above, with profit, which observations are extracted thus:

"….Forming an Association is entirely independent different from its recognition. Recognition of a union confers rights, duties and obligations. Non-conferring of such rights, duties and obligations on a union other than the recognized union does not put it in an inferior position nor the charge of discrimination can be entertained. The members of a non-recognised association can fully enjoy their fundamental freedom of speech and expression as also to form the association.

The Legislature has in fact taken note of the existing phenomenon in trade unions where there would be unions6916 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)] claiming to represent workmen in an undertaking or industry other than recognized union. Section 22 of 1971 Act confers some specific rights on such non-recognized unions, one such being the right to meet and discuss with the employer the grievances of individual workman. The Legislature has made a clear distinction between individual dispute affecting all or a large number of workmen. In the case of even an unrecognized union it enjoys the statutory right to meet and discuss the grievance of an individual workman with the employer. It also enjoys the statutory right to appear and participate in a domestic or departmental enquiry in which its member is involved. This is statutory recognition of an unrecognized union. The exclusion is partial and the embargo on such unrecognized union or individual workman to represent workmen is in the larger interest of industry, public interest and national interest. Such a provision could not be said to be violative of fundamental freedom guaranteed under Article 19(1)(a) or 19(1)(c) of the Constitution."

25. As emerge out of the law detailed above, an unrecognized union is not entitled to be treated at par with a recognized union. However, in the case under reference, the Corporation nowhere claims that FCI Workers Union emerged as a majority union in secret ballot and recognition was accorded to it in that regard. Evidently, there are multiple trade unions operating in the establishment of the Corporation. The union is a splinter group of FCI Workers Union. When secret ballot system was not adhered to by the Corporation to assess representative character of FCI Workers Union, in that situation the Corporation cannot claim to deal with FCI Workers Union in the matter of taking a policy decision relating to service conditions of its employees. In such a situation, the union is also competent to raise issues relating to service conditions of the employees, who happen to be its members. Contention raised by the Corporation to the effect that being a splinter group of FCI Workers Union, the union is not competent to raise the dispute, is unfounded. The same is, accordingly, brushed aside.

26. On turning to facts, one may announce that the Corporation has to perform a lot of work in seasons for procurement of food grains, when stocks are procured and brought to its depots. Volume of work depends on supply of food grains for Schemes like public distribution system. There remains variation in volume of work on account of richness of crop in the country, requirements of food grains for Government Schemes and off take of food grains from depots of the Corporation in accordance with availability of foodgrains in the open market. Work of handling of food grains in depots of the Corporation is very peculiar and of seasonal in character. For the purpose of the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, every depot of the Corporation has been treated as an establishment in itself by the Asnani Committee appointed by the Ministry of Labour, Government of India, New Delhi, pursuant to directions given by the Apex Court to go into the question of abolition of contract labour system in depots of the Corporation.

27. Besides departmentalized labour, the Corporation used to engage labours through contractors. When unions, working in its establishment, resorted to technique of collective bargaining, the Corporation had to eliminate the contractors and engage labours under direct payment system. Wages of the workers working under direct payment system is being revised by the Corporation after every two years on the basis of change in All India Consumer Price Index. Workers engaged under no work no pay system are not under administrative control of the Corporation. Same is the case of workers engaged under management committee system. Work is allotted to the workers of management committee, which comprises of representatives of the workmen and not of the Corporation. The Committee deploys workers and also prefer bills for quantum of work done. On receipt of payment from the Corporation, the Committee disburses it to the individual worker concerned. As per procedure agreed between the parties, the Corporation does not make payment directly to the individual workers. There has been no administrative or disciplinary control of the Corporation over workers working under management committee system. From 01.11.1994, workers of management committee system were upgraded to the status of workers of direct payment system, on the strength of settlement entered into between the Corporation and the unions.

28. Different labour systems, such as departmentalized worker, direct payment system labour and no work no pay system labour, are prevalent in the Corporation, pursuant to settlement arrived at between representatives of the unions and the Corporation, as is evidence out of settlement Ex.WW1/M2. Shri Mehboob Alam concedes in his testimony that the employees working as departmentalized workers and direct payment system workers are of two different categories. Ex.WW1/ M2 substantiates that fact wherein service conditions applicable to departmentalized labour, direct payment system workers and no work no pay system workers have been distinctly delineated.

29. Shri Hari Kant Sharma admits in his testimony that conditions of services of members of union are governed by office memorandum Ex.WW1/M2. When scanned, Ex.WW1/M2 makes it clear that departmentalized workers were entitled to 12 days casual leave in a calendar year. No casual leave is admissible to worker of direct payment system. Same is the case with a worker of no work no pay system. However, Ex.MW1/W3 highlights[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6917 that a worker of no work no pay system was eligible for paid wages for three national holidays falling on August 15, January 26 and October 2 provided that he had worked immediately before and after such national holidays.

30. There has been an agitation as to whether certified standing orders are applicable to employees, other than the category of departmentalized labour. The Corporation tried to project that they were dealt under model standing orders. The evidence, so adduced, was assailed by the union. Documents Ex.MW1/W2 brought over the record by the union to present that workers of direct payment system were dealt by the Corporation under certified standing orders. Affidavits of Shri Ashok Kumar and Shri Shrawan Kumar are placed over the record by the Corporation, which documents bring it to light that in the matter of disciplinary actions, workers of direct payment system are dealt with in accordance with the provisions of model standing orders by the Corporation. These affidavits make it apparent that in Ex.MW1/W2 it was mentioned due to inadvertence that certified standing orders were applicable to the workers of direct payment system. Hence, Ex.MW1/W2 nowhere espouse the cause of the union.

31. Circular Ex.WW2/M2 was issued by Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, Department of Personnel and Training, Government of India, New Delhi on 14.01.1998. In the said circular, Government has decided to reduce entitlement of casual leaves with effect from 01.01.1999 from existing 12 days to 8 days in a calendar year. Shri Hari Kant Sharma could not dispute existence of the said circular. Pursuant to the said circular, the Corporation issued circular 2 of 1998 dated 08.12.1998 on the strength of which casual leaves available to an employee were reduced from 12 to 8 days in a calendar year for the departmentalized workers. Shri Mehboob Alam also could not dispute issuance of the said circular, which has been proved as Ex.WW1/M8. For sake of convenience, contents of the said circular are extracted thus:

'On the demands of the FCI Workers Union, the casual leave as well as other kinds of leave to the departmental workers were revised in terms of the Memorandum of Settlement signed on 01.11.1994 between FCI management and the representatives of FCI Workers Union revising casual leave from 7 days in a calendar year to 12 days with effect from 01.11.1994 at par with employees. Accordingly, circular under reference No.IR(L)/4(15)/94 dated 16.11.1994 has been issued revising various kinds of leave of the departmental workers. Recently, the reduction of casual leaves from 12 to 8 in a calendar year has been ordered to be implemented in respect of employees. Accordingly, the casual leave stands revised from 12 to 8 days in a calendar year for the departmental worker also with immediate effect. This may also be brought to the notice of all concerned."

32. As noted above, 12 casual leaves available to departmentalized labour under standing orders, proved as Ex.WW1/1, were reduced to 8 days by the Corporation on the strength of office memorandum Ex.WW1/M8. It may be a case of modification of certified standing orders Ex.WW1/1, in violation of provisions of section 10 of the Standing Orders Act. Such a situation may attract penalty specified under section 13 of the said Act. Except penalty referred above, Standing Orders Act nowhere makes provision to nullify modification of the standing orders. When provisions in the certified standing orders, as to admissibility of casual leaves in a calendar year, stood modified, the case of the union to claim parity for 12 days leaves in the matter of casual leaves for workers other than departmentalized labours goes off the track.

33. In view of reduction of casual leaves available to departmentalized labour from 12 days to 8 days in a calendar year, the union cannot seek 12 days casual leaves in a calendar year for workers of direct payment system and no work no pay system as per provisions of certified standing orders proved as Ex.WW1/1. When departmentalized workers can avail 8 days casual leave in a calendar year, it does not lie in the mouth of the union to assert that workers of direct payment system and no work no pay system are entitled for 12 days casual leave. In view of these reasons, I find no substance in the claim made by the union. The same is accordingly brushed aside. An award is passed in favour of the Corporation and against the union. It be sent to the appropriate Government for publication.

संषोधित अवार्ड

1. भारत सरकार के श्रम मंत्रालय की आज्ञा क्रमांक एल-40011/3/91- आई.आर.(डी.यू.) दिनांक 27.09.1991 से निम्न अनुसूची का विवाद "Whether the action of Sub- Divisional Officer (Phones) Ajmer in terminating the services of workmen listed at annexure 'A' w.e.f. 1-6-88 is Justified? If not, what relief the concerned workmen are entitled to and from the date" अधिनिर्णय हेतु इस अधिकरण को प्राप्त हुआ है।

2. प्रार्थी श्रमिक की ओर से स्टेटमैंट ऑफ क्लेम पेष कर कथन किया कि विवाद से संबंधित श्रमिकगण सर्वश्री बुद्धा सिंह, गोपाल, श्रवणसिंह, बाबू मोहम्मद, अनवर हुसैन, बख्तावर, नारासिंह, उस्मान अली एवं शकूर मोहम्मद अप्रार्थी के यहां कैजुअल श्रमिकों के रूप में कार्यरत थे। यूनियन का कथन है कि विपक्षी संस्थान ने इन श्रमिकों को वर्ष 1985, 1986, 1987 एवं मई 1988 की अवधि में कार्य पर रखा था तथा सभी ने एक वर्ष में 240 दिन से अधिक की सेवायें पूर्ण कर ली थी। प्रार्थी यूनियन का अभिकथन है कि विपक्षी द्वारा दिनांक 30.04.88 को श्रमिकगण को एक नोटिस दिया गया जिसमें यह अंकित था कि एक माह बाद उनकी सेवायें समाप्त कर दी जायेंगी। यूनियन का कथन है कि उपरोक्त अवधि में सभी श्रमिकगण ने 240 दिन से अधिक कार्य किया है। उनका कथन है कि बुद्धा सिंह ने 368 दिन, गोपाल ने 873 दिन, श्रवण सिंह ने 727 दिन, बाबू ने 911 दिन, अनवर हुसैन ने 387 दिन, बख्तावर सिंह ने 692 दिन, शकूर मोहम्मद ने 692 दिन, रामलाल कुम्हार ने 1142 दिन, नारासिंह ने 964 दिन विपक्षी संस्थान में कार्य किया है। यूनियन का कथन है कि श्रमिकगण उक्त नोटिस दिनांक 30. 04.81 से आष्चर्यचकित हुये जिसमें यह अंकित किया गया था कि उनकी सेवायें 01.06.88 से समाप्त कर दी जायेंगी, क्योंकि केबल कार्य समाप्त हो गया है। यूनियन का कथन है कि उपरोक्त श्रमिकगण से कनिष्ठ श्रमिकों को सेवा में रखा गया। यूनियन का यह भी कथन है कि कुछ श्रमिकगण ने उपरोक्त नोटिस को माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय में चुनौती दी और स्थगन आदेष प्राप्त कर लिया, जिसकी प्रति पत्रावली पर पेष है। यूनियन का कथन है कि उपरोक्त नोटिस पूरी तरह औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम 1947 की धारा 25 एफ (ए,बी,सी) के विरूद्ध है। उनका कथन है कि ऐसे नोटिसेज के जरिये श्रमिक की सेवायें समाप्त नहीं की जा सकती थी क्योकि श्रमिकगण ने एक कलेण्डर वर्ष में 240 दिवस से अधिक की सेवा विपक्षी के यहां पूर्ण कर ली थी। उनका यह भी कथन है कि माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय द्वारा पी एण्ड टी विभाग को दैनिक वेतन भोगी एवं आकस्मिक श्रमिकों के संबंध में निर्देषित किया गया था कि विभाग ऐसे कर्मचारियों को समायोजित करने की पॉलिसी तैयार करे। यूनियन का यह भी कथन है कि इस प्रकार श्रमिकगण को सेवामुक्त किया जाना भारतीय संविधान के आर्टीकल 10,16 व 21 की उल्लंघना है। सभी श्रमिकगण गरीब परिवारों से हैं, अतः दिनांक 30.04.88 द्वारा दिये गये नोटिसेज को खारिज कर श्रमिकगण को पुनः सेवा में लिया जाकर उन्हें नियमित किया जावे तथा समस्त लाभ दिलायें जावें।

3. अप्रार्थी की ओर से स्टेटमेंट ऑफ क्लेम का जवाब पेष कर कथन किया कि श्रमिकगण एक स्पेषिफिक कार्य केबल खुदाई के अस्थायी कार्य के लिये मस्टरोल पर कैजुअल श्रमिक के रूप में रखे गये थे, जिन्हें कार्य पूरा हो जाने पर एक महीने का नोटिस देते हुये हटा दिया गया। 9 श्रमिकों में से केवल गोपाल द्वारा ही अप्रेल 85 से मार्च 88 तक लगातार तीन वर्ष तक कार्य किया गया है। केवल श्रमिक गोपाल के द्वारा ही वित्तीय वर्ष 1985-86, 86-87, 87-88 में एक वर्ष में 240 दिन तथा आधे वर्ष में 120 दिन किया गया है। अन्य किसी भी श्रमिक द्वारा लगातार तीन वर्षों तक कार्य नहीं किया गया है और न ही वित्तीय वर्ष 1985-86, 86-87, 87-88 में एक वर्ष में 240 दिन तथा आधे वर्ष में 120 दिन किया गया है। केबल खुदाई का कार्य पूर्ण होने पर श्रमिकों को एक माह का नोटिस दिनांक 30.04.88 दिया गया था। श्रमिकों का कार्य पूर्णरूपेण अस्थायी प्रकृति का था। केबल खुदाई का कार्य पूर्ण होने पर कार्य नहीं होने के कारण विभाग के पास अन्य इस प्रकृति का कार्य नहीं होने तथा इनकी विभाग में आवष्यकता नहीं होने से श्रमिकों को हटा दिया गया। अतः प्रार्थीगण का क्लेम खारिज किया जावे।

वर्ष 1985 से लेकर मई 1988 तक लगातार बिना किसी व्यवधान

के अपनी सेवायें अप्रार्थी विभाग को दी हैं। सभी श्रमिकों द्वारा

प्रतिवर्ष 240 दिवस से अधिक काम किया गया है। सभी श्रमिकों को

दिनांक 30.04.88 को एक ही साइक्लोस्टाइल में नोटिस दिनांक

30.04.88 दिया गया है। श्रमिकाें को सेवा से हटाते समय कोई

छंटनी मुआवजा नहीं दिया गया और केन्द्र सरकार को भी श्रमिकों

को हटाने के संबंध में सूचना नहीं दी गयी। विभाग द्वारा औद्योगिक

विवाद अधिनियम 1947 की धारा 25 एफ की पालना नहीं की गयी।

अप्रार्थी द्वारा 19 वर्ष बाद क्लेम का जवाब पेष किया गया है।

अप्रार्थी द्वारा दिये गये जवाब में यह कहीं नहीं कहा है कि श्रमिकों

द्वारा 240 दिवस काम नहीं करके इतने दिन काम किया गया है।

जिरह में अप्रार्थी ने यह तक नहीं पूछा है कि सेवामुक्ति से पहले

एक वर्ष में कितने दिन काम किया था। प्रदर्ष डबल्यू 13 अप्रार्थी

द्वारा 278 दिन काम करने का प्रमाण पत्र है। सभी श्रमिकों द्वारा

240 दिवस से अधिक काम किया गया है। गवाह प्रमोद शंकर

माथुर ने जिरह में स्वीकार किया है कि नौ श्रमिकों को जो नोटिस

विभाग के द्वारा दिया गया था वह औ.वि. अधि. की धारा 25 एफ

की पालना में दिया गया था। श्रमिकगणों की धारा 25एफ, जी, एच

के प्रावधानों के विपरीत सेवामुक्ति की गयी है। अतः सभी श्रमिकों

को पिछले समस्त वेतन व सेवालाभों के साथ पुनः सेवा में बहाल

किया जावे। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा अपने तर्कोें के समर्थन में निम्न

8. अप्रार्थी के विद्वान प्रतिनिधि का कथन है कि श्रमिकों की नियुक्ति केबल खुदाई के अस्थायी प्रकृति के काम के लिये हुयी थी। अस्थायी प्रकृति का कार्य पूर्ण होने पर श्रमिकों को हटा दिया गया। श्रमिक गोपाल के अलावा किसी भी व्यक्ति ने 240 दिवस से अधिक काम नहीं किया है। सभी श्रमिकों को एक माह का नोटिस दिया गया है। सभी श्रमिक पिछले 20 वर्षों से कहीं न कहीं6920 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)] कार्यरत रहे हैं। श्रमिकगणों की नियमित नियुक्ति नहीं है। वर्ष 1988 के बाद केबल खुदाई का कार्य बंद हो चुका है। यह अब ठेकेदारों के मार्फत किया जाता है। अप्रार्थी विभाग द्वारा 7 वर्ष से अधिक कार्य करने वाले श्रमिकों की वरिष्ठता सूची बनायी गयी है। श्रमिकगण पर औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम 1947 के प्रावधान लागू नहीं होते हैं। अतः क्लेम खारिज किया जावे। अप्रार्थी के विद्वान अधिवक्ता द्वारा अपने तर्कों के समर्थन में निम्न न्यायिक दृष्टांत पेष किये गये हैं :-

01. सिविल अपील संख्या 3595-3612/99 सचिव, स्टेट ऑफ कर्नाटका व अन्य बनाम उमा देवी व अन्य का निर्णय दिनांक 10.04.2006

9. उभय पक्षों की बहस सुनी गयी तथा उभय पक्ष की ओर से प्रस्तुत न्यायिक दृष्टांतों का बारीकी से अद्योपांत विनम्रतापूर्वक अवलोकन किया गया।

10. पत्रावली के अवलोकन से प्रकट होता है कि प्रकरण में दिनांक 15.11.91 को नो डिस्पुट अवार्ड पारित किया गया है। दिनांक 25.03.92 को प्रकरण को पुनः रेस्टोर किया गया। दिनांक 11.01.94 के आदेष द्वारा अप्रार्थी द्वारा की गयी प्रारम्भिक आपत्तियाँ खारिज की गयी हैं। माननीय उच्च न्यायालय द्वारा डी.बी. स्पेषल अपील संख्या 82/95 में आदेष दिनांक 17.01.03 द्वारा प्रकरण में पुनः सुनवाई कर कानून के अनुसार निर्णय दिये जाने के आदेष दिये गये हैैं। न्यायाधिकरण द्वारा आदेष दिनांक 11.12.03 को अप्रार्थी के विरूद्ध एकपक्षीय अवार्ड पारित किया गया। न्यायाधिकरण के आदेष दिनांक 16.05.07 द्वारा एकपक्षीय आदेष दिनांक 11.12.03 को निरस्त किया गया।

11. प्रार्थीगण सर्वश्री गोपाल, श्रवणसिंह, बाबू मोहम्मद, अनवर हुसैन, बख्तावर, नारासिंह, उस्मान अली एवं शकूर मोहम्मद ने अपने क्लेम के समर्थन में अपने शपथ पत्र प्रस्तुत किये हैं, जिसमें सभी श्रमिकगण ने अपने क्लेम के वर्णित तथ्यों को दोहराते हुये अभिकथन किया है कि श्रमिकगण जिस कार्य को सम्पादित कर रहे थे, वह स्थाई प्रकृति का है और जब तक विपक्षी संस्थान अस्तित्व में है, तब तक वह कार्य चलने वाला है। उनका यह भी शपथ पत्रों में अभिकथन है कि उन्हें कार्य करते लगभग 4 वर्ष हो गये थे, अतः उन्होंने अप्रार्थी से नियमित करने की मांग की, इसी कारण अप्रार्थी ने कार्य होते हुये भी अनुचित श्रम नीति अपनाते हुये व शोषण की नीति अपनाते हुये सेवा से पृथक कर दिया गया। श्रमिकगण को सेवापृथक करने से पूर्व अधिनियम की धारा 25 एफ, जी, एच के प्रावधानों की पालना नहीं की गयी और न ही नियम 77 एवं 78 की पालना की गयी। श्रमिकगणों को हटाकर नये श्रमिकों को संस्थान में कार्य पर लगाया है व श्रमिकगण को सेवापृथक करते समय उनसे कनिष्ठ व्यक्ति उस समय संस्थान में काम कर रहे थे। सभी श्रमिकगण ने प्रत्येक वर्ष में 240 दिवस से अधिक सेवायें पूर्ण की है, अतः समस्त लाभ व पिछले समस्त वेतन सहित सेवा में बहाल किया जावे। जिरह में सभी श्रमिकगणों ने अप्रार्थी विभाग में केबल खुदाई का कार्य किया जाना बताया है तथा वर्ष 1984 से 1988 के बीच की अवधि में अप्रार्थी संस्थान में काम करना बताया है।

12. अप्रार्थी की ओर से प्रस्तुत गवाह श्री प्रमोद शंकर माथुर ने अपनी साक्ष्य के मुख्य परीक्षण में कथन किया है कि विभागीय रिकार्ड के अनुसार मुझे तथ्यों की जानकारी है। वाद प्रस्तुत करने से पूर्व विभाग को कोई नोटिस नहीं दिया गया। सभी श्रमिक केवल अस्थाई प्रकृति के कार्य के लिये मस्टरोल पर रखे थे। कार्य पूर्ण हो जाने पर विभाग के पास अन्य कोई कार्य नहीं होने पर विभाग को इनकी कोई आवष्यकता नहीं थी। सभी श्रमिकों को नोटिस देकर हटाया गया है। श्रमिक गोपाल के अतिरिक्त किसी श्रमिक ने एक वर्ष में 240 दिवस कार्य नहीं किया। जिरह में गवाह ने स्वीकार किया है कि श्रमिकों को 25 एफ की पालना में नोटिस दिये गये थे। श्रमिकों को अस्थायी रूप से केबिल कार्य के लिये मस्टरोल पर नियुक्त किया गया था। गवाह ने जिरह में आगे कहा है कि जिन श्रमिकों ने 7 वर्ष की सेवा पूरी कर ली तथा 240 दिवस से अधिक कार्य किया हो, उन्हें योग्य मानते हुये वरिष्ठता सूची बनायी थी। इन नौ श्रमिकों की योग्यता पूरी नहीं थी। केबिल खोदने का कार्य नियमित प्रकृति का नहीं है। अब यह काम ठेकेदारों के मार्फत कराया जाता है।

13. सभी श्रमिकगण द्वारा प्रस्तुत शपथ पत्रों में श्रमिकगण द्वारा अप्रार्थी संस्थान में 240 दिवस से अधिक कार्य करना बताया है। अप्रार्थी द्वारा श्रमिक गोपाल के अतिरिक्त अन्य किसी भी श्रमिक ने 240 दिवस काम नहीं करना बताया है। मेरे विनम्र मत में नियोजक का यह उत्तरदायित्व है कि वह यह इस तथ्य को साबित करे कि किस श्रमिक द्वारा कितनी अवधि तक काम किया गया। अप्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा इस संबंध में मौखिक एवं दस्तावेजी साक्ष्य के रूप में ऐसी कोई साक्ष्य पेष नहीं की है कि संबंधित श्रमिक ने एक वर्ष में 240 दिवस काम नहीं किया हो। अप्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा केवल श्रमिक गोपाल के द्वारा ही एक वर्ष में 240 दिवस काम किया जाना स्वीकार किया गया है, जबकि सभी नौ श्रमिकों को एक ही साइक्लोस्टाइल में दिनांक 30.04.88 को नोटिस जारी किया गया है। अप्रार्थी की ओर से प्रस्तुत गवाह श्री प्रमोदषंकर माथुर ने भी अपनी साक्ष्य में श्रमिकों को 25 एफ की पालना में ही नोटिस दिया जाना स्वीकार किया है। मेरे विनम्र मत में यदि सभी श्रमिकों द्वारा 240 दिवस कार्य पूर्ण नहीं किया गया था, तो सभी श्रमिकों को दिनांक 30.04.88 को 25 एफ की पालना में नोटिस क्यों जारी किया गया? इस संबंध में अप्रार्थी की ओर से कोई साक्ष्य पेष नहीं की है। अप्रार्थी विभाग द्वारा औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम 1947 की धारा 25 एफ की पालना में श्रमिकों को कोई छंटनी मुआवजा नहीं दिया गया और न ही इस संबंध में केन्द्र सरकार को कोई सूचना भेजी गयी। अतः अप्रार्थी विभाग द्वारा औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम 1947 की धारा 25 एफ की पालना अप्रार्थी विभाग द्वारा नहीं किया जाना प्रकट होता है।

[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6921

14. माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय द्वारा न्यायिक दृष्टांत 2010(III) डी.एन.जे. (एस.सी.) 1019 सीनियर सुप्रीटेंडेंट टेलीग्राफ (ट्रेफिक) बनाम संतोष कुमार तथा एस.बी. सी.डवल्यू. नंबर 281/2012 किषन व अन्य बनाम जज लेबर कोर्ट संख्या 02 में निर्णय दिनांक 08.01.2012 में माननीय उच्च न्यायालय द्वारा अभिनिर्धारित किया गया है कि इस तरह के दैनिक वेतन भोगी श्रमिकगण जिन्होंने 1-2 वर्ष ही कार्य किया हो तो उनको सेवा में वापिस लिये जाने का आदेष तथा बकाया वेतन भत्तों के दिलाये जाने के आदेष को उचित नहीं माना है, बल्कि ऐसे मामलों में श्रमिकगणों को एकमुष्त क्षतिपूर्ति की राषि दिया जाना उचित माना है। माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय तथा माननीय उच्च न्यायालय के नवीनतम निष्कर्षों को मद्‌देनजर रखते हुये इन श्रमिकगणों को पिछला वेतन एवं अन्य सभी लाभ दिया जाना तथा सेवा में पुनः नियोजित करना उचित नहीं समझता हूँ। उक्त दोनों न्यायिक दृष्टांतों के प्रकाष में प्रत्येक प्रार्थीगण/श्रमिकगण को पचास-पचास हजार रूपये क्षतिपूर्ति राषि के रूप में दिये जाने से न्याय के उ्‌देष्य की पूति हो जायेगी। 2010(III) डी.एन.जे. (एस.सी.) 1019 सीनियर सुप्रीटेंडेंट टेलीग्राफ (ट्रेफिक) बनाम संतोश कुमार के पैरा संख्या 08 में इस बारे में महत्वपूर्ण दिषा-निर्देष प्रदान करता है। इसी तरह एस.बी. सी. डवल्यू. नंबर 281/2012 किषन व अन्य बनाम जज लेबर कोर्ट संख्या 02 में निर्णय दिनांक 08.01.2012 के अन्तिम दो पैराग्राफ में भी इस बारे में मार्गदर्षन प्रदान करते हैं। लिहाजा इन नवीनतम न्यायिक दृष्टांतों में प्रदान किये गये दिषा-निर्देषों के मुताबिक प्रत्येक श्रमिक को केवल पचास-पचास हजार रूपये क्षतिपूर्ति राषि अदा कर देने से न्याय के उद्‌देष्य की पूर्ति हो जायेगी।

15. प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि की ओर से प्रस्तुत न्यायिक दृष्टांतों का मैंने बारीकी से अध्योपांत विनम्रतापूर्वक अवलोकन किया। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा न्यायिक दृष्टांत प्रस्तुत कर श्रमिकगण को पुनः सेवा में लिये जाने तथा पिछले समस्त वेतन एवं अन्य सभी लाभ दिलाये जाने की प्रार्थना की है। इस संबंध में प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा प्रस्तुत दृष्टांतों के तथ्य एवं परिस्थितियॉं हस्तगत प्रकरण के तथ्यों एवं परिस्थितियों से भारी भिन्नता रखते हैं, अतः उक्त सभी न्यायिक दृष्टांत प्रार्थीगण/श्रमिकगण के केस में लागू नहीं होते हैं।

16. उपरोक्त विवेचन के फलस्वरूप प्रकरण में निम्न अवार्ड पारित किया जाता है :-

vokMZ

श्रमिकगण सर्वश्री बुद्धा सिंह, गोपाल, श्रवणसिंह, बाबू मोहम्मद, अनवर हुसैन, बख्तावर, नारासिंह, उस्मान अली एवं शकूर मोहम्मद कुल 9 श्रमिकों की सेवामुक्ति नियोजक द्वारा औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम के प्रावधानों की पालना किये बिना करना उचित व वैद्य नहीं है। चूॅंकि श्रमिकगणों की सेवामुक्ति से पूर्व विपक्षी नियोजक द्वारा औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम 1947 के कुछ प्रावधानों की पालना नहीं की गयी है, अतः श्रमिकगण एकमुष्त क्षतिपूर्ति राषि प्राप्त करने के अधिकारी हैं। श्रमिक बुद्धा सिंह ने शपथ पत्र पेष कर अपने केस को प्रमाणित नहीं किया है। अतः श्रमिक बुद्धा सिंह के अतिरिक्त अन्य सभी श्रमिकगणाेंं में से प्रत्येक श्रमिकगण को पचास-पचास हजार रूपये क्षतिपूर्ति राषि के रूप में दिलाये जाते हैं। माननीय उच्च न्यायालय के आदेष दिनांक 17.01.03 एवं न्यायाधिकरण के एकपक्षीय आदेष दिनांक 11.12.03 के बाद अप्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 14.06.04 को पुनः रेस्टोरेषन हेतु प्रार्थना पत्र पेष किया गया है। अतः श्रमिकगण को दिनांक 14.06.04 से पचास-पचास हजार रुपये एकमुष्त क्षतिपूर्ति राषि के रूप में दिलाये जाते हैं। विपक्षी संस्थान प्रार्थी श्रमिक बुद्धा सिंह के अतिरिक्त अन्य सभी श्रमिकगण को दिनांक 14.06.04 से क्षतिपूर्ति राषि भुगतान करने की दिनांक तक 6 प्रतिषत की दर से ब्याज भी अदा करेगा। चूॅंकि श्रमिक अनवर हुसैन की मृत्यु हो चुकी है, अतः उसके वारिसान उक्त क्षतिपूर्ति राषि मय ब्याज प्राप्त करने के अधिकारी हैं।

17. संषोधित अवार्ड आज दिनांक 22.09.2014 को खुले न्यायालय में लिखाया जाकर सुनाया गया जो केन्द्र सरकार को प्रकाषनार्थ नियमानुसार भेजा जावे।

2. प्रार्थी श्रमिक की ओर से स्टेटमैंट ऑफ क्लेम पेष कर कथन किया कि प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति विपक्षी संख्या 1 के अधीन दिनांक 19.10.89 को हुयी थी। दिनांक 02.06.90 को प्रार्थी को सेवामुक्त कर दिया गया। दिनांक 18.06.90 को प्रार्थी को पुनः नियुक्ति दी गयी और 22.12.90 को सेवामुक्त कर दिया। फिर पुनः दिनांक 02.02.91 को नियुक्ति दी गयी और फिर 04.05.91 को सेवामुक्त कर दिया। प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 19.10.89 से 04.05.91 तक 536 दिन कार्य किया गया। प्रार्थी की सेवामुक्ति के विरूद्ध माननीय उच्च न्यायालय में रिट याचिका पेष किये जाने पर माननीय उच्च न्यायालय द्वारा दिनांक 15.05.91 को एक अन्तरिम आदेष पारित कर सेवामुक्ति आदेष पर स्थगन आदेष जारी कर दिया। दिनांक 18.05.95 को माननीय उच्च न्यायालय द्वारा यह निर्णय दिया गया कि उक्त विवाद औद्योगिक न्यायाधिकरण के समक्ष उठाना चाहिये। फिर प्रार्थी को पुनः दिनांक 20.05.95 को सेवामुक्त कर दिया गया। प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 20.05.95 तक विपक्षी के यहॉं निरन्तर कार्य किया गया। प्रार्थी द्वारा पूरी मेहनत एवं ईमानदारी के साथ विपक्षी संस्थान में काम किया गया है। प्रार्थी को अकारण ही सेवामुक्त कर दिया गया। प्रार्थी द्वारा किया गया कार्य स्थाई प्रकृति का था। प्रार्थी को सेवामुक्त करते समय न ही कोई नोटिस दिया और न ही कोई नोटिस पे का भुगतान किया गया। प्रार्थी की सेवामुक्ति के समय उससे कनिष्ठ अनेक श्रमिक कार्यरत थे तथा प्रार्थी की सेवामुक्ति के बाद भी नये श्रमिकों को भर्ती किया गया है। विपक्षी द्वाारा औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम की धारा 25 जी एवं 25 एफ की पालना नहीं की गयी तथा राज0 औद्योगिक विवाद नियम 1958 के नियम 77 व 78 की पालना नहीं की गयी। प्रार्थी को सेवामुक्त किये जाने से पूर्व कोई आरोप पत्र नहीं दिया गया ओर न ही कोई जांच की गयी। प्रार्थी का सेवामुक्ति आदेष दिनांक 04.05.91 व फिर 20.05.95 अनुचित एवं अवैध है। जो निरस्त किये जाने योग्य है। प्रार्थी को पुनः सेवा में बहाल किया जाकर पुराने समस्त वेतन व अन्य लाभ दिलाये जावें।

3. अप्रार्थीगण द्वारा प्रारम्भिक आपत्ति करते हुये कथन किया कि प्रार्थी द्वारा प्रस्तुत क्लेम न्यायाधिकरण के समक्ष पोषणीय नहीं है। विपक्षी विद्यालय उद्योग की परिभाषा में नहीं आने से प्रार्थी द्वारा उठाया गया विवाद औद्योगिक विवाद की परिभाषा में नहीं आता है। गुणावगुण पर विपक्षी का कथन है कि विपक्षी विद्यालय की स्थापना दिनांक 17.10.89 को की गयी थी तथा तात्कालीन आवष्यकता को दृष्टिगत रखते हुये एवं आकस्मिक कार्य की उपलब्धता के कारण प्रार्थी को दिनांक 19.10.89 से अंषकालीन नियुक्ति कनिष्ठ लिपिक के पद पर पूर्णतया अंषकालीन एवं एक निष्चित राषि 713/-रू0 मूल वेतन का 75 प्रतिषत पर तथा किसी प्रकार का भत्ता देय नहीं होगा, की शर्त पर दी थी। प्रार्थी को एक नियमित चयन प्रक्रिया के तहत नियुक्ति नहीं दी गयी। प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति पूर्णतया अस्थायी रूप से एक निष्चित अवधि के लिये ही की गयी थी, जो अवधि समाप्त होने पर उसकी सेवायें स्वतः ही समाप्त हो गयी। विपक्षी स्कूल में क0लि0 का एक ही पद है, जिस पर श्री धमेन्द्र कुमार का स्थानांतरण होने पर दिनांक 02.11.89 से कार्यभार संभाला गया है। प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति एक निष्चित अवधि एवं निष्चित राषि पर ही की गयी थी। प्रार्थी को सेवामुक्त किये जाने से पूर्व कोई आरोप पत्र एवं जांच की आवष्यकता नहीं थी। प्रार्थी के विरूद्ध कोई दुराचरण का आरोप नहीं था। अंषकालीन श्रमिक के लिये नोटिस एवं नोटिस पे की आवष्यकता नहीं होती है। अतः प्रार्थी की सेवामुक्ति उचित एवं वैध है। क्लेम खारिज किये जाने योग्य है।

4. प्रार्थी की ओर से स्वयं प्रार्थी साक्ष्य में परीक्षित हुआ है और विपक्षी की ओर से श्री डी.के. सैनी का शपथ पत्र पेष हुआ है, जिससे प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा जिरह की गयी है।

6. प्रार्थी के विद्वान प्रतिनिधि का तर्क है कि प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति 19.10.89 को क्लर्क कम टाइपिस्ट के पद पर हुयी थी। दिनांक 02.06.90 को प्रार्थी को सेवामुक्त कर दिया गया। दिनांक 18.06. 90 को प्रार्थी को पुनः नियुक्ति दी गयी और 22.12.90 को सेवामुक्त कर दिया। फिर पुनः दिनांक 02.02.91 को नियुक्ति दी गयी और फिर 04.05.91 को सेवामुक्त कर दिया। उक्त सेवामुक्ति के विरूद्ध माननीय उच्च न्यायालय में रिट याचिका पेष किये जाने पर माननीय उच्च न्यायालय द्वारा दिनांक 15.05.91 को एक अन्तरिम आदेष पारित कर सेवामुक्ति आदेष पर स्थगन आदेष दिया गया। दिनांक 18.05.95 को माननीय उच्च न्यायालय द्वारा यह निर्णय दिया गया कि उक्त विवाद औद्योगिक न्यायाधिकरण के समक्ष उठाना चाहिये। फिर प्रार्थी को पुनः दिनांक 20.05.95 को सेवामुक्त कर दिया गया। श्रम एवं नियोजन मंत्रालय के आदेष दिनांक 10.10.95 द्वारा रेफरेंस में संषोधन हुआ है। प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 15.05.91 से 20.05.95 तक विपक्षी के यहॉं लगातार काम किया गया है। प्रार्थी को दोनों बार सेवामुक्त करते समय नोटिस, एक माह का नोटिस पे, छंटनी मुआवजा नहीं दिया गया। प्रार्थी द्वारा कुल साढें पांच साल विपक्षी के यहाँ काम किया गया है। विपक्षी द्वारा धारा 25 एफ की उल्लंघना की है। प्रार्थी श्रमिक यदि पार्ट टाइम पर था, तो यह विपक्षी को सिद्ध करना था। स्कूल उद्योग की परिभाषा में आता है। विपक्षी के गवाह ने जिरह में स्वीकार किया है कि प्रार्थी को सेवामुक्त करते समय नोटिस, एक माह का नोटिस पे, छंटनी मुआवजा नहीं दिया गया। उपस्थिति पंजिका में समय 7.20 से 1.20 तथा 9 से 3 बजे तक दिखाया है प्रार्थी की पार्ट टाइम/अस्थायी नियुक्ति प्रक्रिया के अनूरूप थी। विपक्षी द्वारा लिखित बहस के साथ जो दस्तावेज पेष किये हैं, वे पढे नहीं जा सकते, क्योंकि वे प्रदर्षित नहीं है। प्रार्थी को फिक्सड टर्म पर नियुक्ति नहीं दी गयी। प्रार्थी श्रमिक द्वारा 240 दिवस से अधिक कार्य किया गया है। अतः प्रार्थी का सेवामुक्ति आदेष निरस्त किये जाने योग्य है। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा अपने तर्कों के समर्थन में निम्न न्यायिक दृष्टांत पेष किये गये हैं :-

1. सिविल अपील संख्या 4883-4884/2014 भुवनेष कुमार द्विवेदी बनाम मै0 हिन्डालको इण्डस्ट्रीज लि0 निर्णय दिनांक 25.04.14 (माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय)

7. विपक्षी के विद्वान प्रतिनिधि का तर्क है कि चूरू में नया कार्यालय खोले जाने पर ''तात्कालिक आवष्यकता की पूर्ति'' के लिये प्रार्थी को 'पार्ट टाइम नियुक्ति''' एक फिक्सड राषि 713/रू0 पर दी गयी थी। प्रार्थी को पूर्णतया अस्थायी रूप से एवं एक निष्चित अवधि के लिये पार्ट टाइम के रूप में रखा गया था। इसके बाद किसी भी श्रमिक को कोई नियुक्ति नहीं दी गयी, केवल धमेन्द्र नसीराबाद से स्थानांतरण होकर आया है। प्रार्थी को सेवामुक्त करने के बाद माननीय उच्च न्यायालय से स्टे होने पर ही पुनः सेवा पर रखा गया था। माननीय उच्च न्यायालय में स्टे खारिज होने पर प्रार्थी को पुनः सेवा से दिनांक 20.05.95 को हटा दिया गया था। जिरह में श्रमिक ने स्वीकार किया है उसने अपना नियुक्ति पत्र पेष नहीं किया है, उसे फिक्सड राषि 713/-रू. मिलती थी। दिनांक 19.10.89 से 04.05.91 तक कभी भी नियमित वेतन की मांग नहीं की। विपक्षी स्कूल उद्योग की परिभाषा में नहीं आता है। अतः प्रार्थी द्वारा प्रस्तुत क्लेम खारिज किये जाने योग्य है। अप्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा अपने तर्कों के समर्थन में निम्न न्यायिक दृष्टांत पेष किये गये हैं :-

8. उभय पक्षों के तर्कों का मनन किया एवं पत्रावली का गहनता से अवलोकन व अध्ययन किया गया।

9. मेरे विनम्र मत में निष्कर्ष पर पहुंचने से पूर्व दोनों पक्षों की ओर से प्रस्तुत गवाहों के बयानों की विवेचना करना उचित होगा।

10. प्रार्थी गुरूदास उपाध्याय द्वारा प्रस्तुत शपथ पत्र के मुख्य परीक्षण में स्टेटमेंट ऑफ क्लेम में दिये गये तथ्यों को दोहराया गया है। जिरह में प्रार्थी द्वारा यह स्वीकार किया गया है कि वह पार्ट टाइम वर्कर था। नियुक्ति आदेष न्यायालय में पेष नहीं किये हैं तथा उसे फिक्सड राषि 713/-रू0 मिलते थे तथा उसने नियमित वेतन की मांग नहीं की।

11. विपक्षी की ओर से श्री डी.के. सैनी द्वारा अपने शपथ पत्र के मुख्य परीक्षण में क्लेम में दिये गये जवाब को दोहराया गया है। जिरह में भी गवाह ने प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति पार्ट टाइम एवं अस्थायी रूप से होना तथा प्रार्थी को दिनांक 04.05.91 को सेवामुक्त किया जाना, माननीय उच्च न्यायालय के आदेष की पालना में दिनांक 15.05.91 से 20.05.91 तक काम करना तथा पुनः 20.05.91 को सेवा से हटाया जाना बताया है। साथ ही आगे कथन किया है कि प्रार्थी को सेवामुक्ति के समय नोटिस, नोटिस पे, छंटनी मुआवजा नहीं दिया गया।

12. अप्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा यह प्रारम्भिक आपत्ति की गयी है कि विपक्षी स्कूल उद्योग की परिभाषा में नहीं आता है। मेरे विनम्र मत में विद्यालय में जिसमें छात्र-छात्राओं का अध्ययन हेतु प्रवेष होता है, उनसे अध्ययन हेतु फीस वसूल की जाती है और विद्यालय द्वारा लाभ-हानि के खाते संधारित किये जाते हैं। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा प्रस्तुत न्यायिक दृष्टांत 1988 (57) एफ एल आर 462 ए.सुंदराम्बल बनाम गवर्नमेंट ऑफ गोवा, दामन एण्ड डियू वगैरह एवं 2006(109) एफ एल आर 1191 मैन्यूलमोनी मैट्रिकुलेषन स्कूल चैन्नई बनाम लेबर कोर्ट, चैन्नई में यह सिद्वांत प्रतिपादित किये गये हैं कि शैक्षिक संस्थान उद्योग की परिभाषा में आते है। एक विद्यालय में नॉन टीचिंग स्टाफ द्वारा औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम के तहत विवाद उठाया जा सकता है। उपरोक्त न्यायिक दृष्टांतों के प्रकाष में अप्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा की गयी यह प्रारम्भिक आपत्ति स्वीकार किये जाने योग्य है। विपक्षी संस्थान उद्योग की परिभाषा में आता है।

13. प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा यह तर्क दिया गया है कि प्रार्थी श्रमिक द्वारा 240 दिवस से अधिक कार्य किया गया है। प्रार्थी श्रमिक द्वारा दिनांक 19.10.89 को विपक्षी संख्या 1 के यहॉं नियुक्ति हुयी है, दिनांक 02.06.90 को प्रार्थी को सेवामुक्त कर दिया गया। फिर पुनः दिनांक 18.06.90 को प्रार्थी को नियुक्ति दी गयी। फिर दिनांक 22.12.90 को सेवामुक्त कर दिया गया। इसके बाद पुनः दिनांक 02.02.91 को प्रार्थी को नियुक्ति दी गयी। फिर पुनः प्रार्थी को दिनांक 04.05.91 को सेवामुक्त कर दिया गया। इस प्रकार इस अवधि में जो प्रार्थी श्रमिक द्वारा कार्य किया गया है, वह लगातार 240 दिवस विपक्षी संस्थान में काम नहीं किया जाकर टुकड़ों में किया गया है। औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम के अनुसार किसी भी संस्थान में लगातार 240 दिवस कार्य करना आवष्यक है। प्रार्थी श्रमिक द्वारा इस अवधि में लगातार 240 दिवस कार्य नहीं किया गया है।

14. प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 15.05.91 से 20.05.95 तक की अवधि में जो कार्य विपक्षी संस्थान के यहॉं किया गया है, वह तो माननीय राजस्थान उच्च न्यायालय द्वारा दिये गये स्टे के कारण किया गया है। अतः मेरे विनम्र मत में जिस अवधि में कार्य किसी न्यायिक आदेष के तहत किया गया हो, वह गणनीय नहीं माना जा सकता। ऐसी स्थिति में प्रार्थी श्रमिक द्वारा जो दिनांक 15.05.91 से 20.05. 95 तक विपक्षी संस्थान में कार्य किया गया है, वह माननीय उच्च न्यायालय के आदेष की पालना में किया गया है। इस अवधि में किये गये कार्य को 240 दिवस के साथ नहीं जोड़ा जा सकता। अतः यह अवधि गणनीय नहीं है।

15. अप्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि का यह तर्क रहा है कि प्रार्थी श्रमिक को जो नियुक्ति दी गयी है वह, ''पूर्णतया अस्थायी'' ''पार्ट-टाइम'' एवं एक फिक्सड राषि पर दी गयी थी। प्रार्थी श्रमिक द्वारा जिरह में स्वयं स्वीकार किया है कि उसे पार्ट टाइम पर ही नियुक्ति दी गयी थी, उसने अपनी नियुक्ति के आदेष न्यायालय में पेष नहीं किये है तथा अपने सेवाकाल में उसने कभी नियमित वेतन की मांग नहीं की थी। अतः स्वयं प्रार्थी द्वारा यह स्वीकार किया गया है कि उसकी नियुक्ति पार्ट टाइम हुयी थी। उसे प्रतिमाह 713/-रू0 फिक्सड वेतन दिया गया। प्रार्थी श्रमिक द्वारा अपनी नियुक्ति के संबंध में कोई भी आदेष पेष नहीं किया गया है, जिसमें उसकी नियुक्ति संबंधी शर्तों का उल्लेख हो। मेरे विनम्र मत में किसी भी श्रमिक को न्याय हेतु न्यायालय के समक्ष स्वच्छ हाथों से आना चाहिये। किसी भी तथ्य को छुपाने एवं प्र्रस्तुत नहीं करने के आधार पर श्रमिक कोई राहत पाने का अधिकारी नहीं हो सकता। हस्तगत प्रकरण में भी प्रार्थी द्वारा अपनी नियुक्ति के संबंध में कोई आदेष पेष नहीं किया गया है, जिसमें उसकी नियुक्ति संबंधी शर्तों का उल्लेख हो।

16. प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा यह आपत्ति की गयी है कि विपक्षी संस्थान द्वारा औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम की धारा 25 एफ 25 जी की पालना नहीं की गयी। प्रार्थी द्वारा स्वयं यह स्वीकार किया गया है कि वह एक पार्ट टाईम वर्कर था। मेरे विनम्र मत में औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम की धारा 25एफ एवं 25जी एक[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6925 नियमित कर्मचारी पर ही लागू होते हैं, न कि पार्ट टाइम वर्कर पर। प्रार्थी एक पार्ट टाइम वर्कर था। अतः विपक्षी संस्थान द्वारा प्रार्थी को सेवामुक्त करते समय धारा 25एफ, 25जी की पालना किया जाना उपरोक्त वर्णित परिस्थितियों में आवष्यक नहीं था। अतः प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि का यह तर्क स्वीकार किये जाने योग्य नहीं है। विपक्षी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा प्रस्तुत न्यायिक दृष्टांत 2 लगायत 6 में दिये गये दिषा-निर्देषों का प्रभाव ऊपर विवेचना में दिया गया है।

17. प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि की ओर से प्रस्तुत न्यायिक दृष्टांत संख्या 1 लगायत 13 के तथ्य एवं परिस्थितियॉं हस्तगत प्रकरण से भिन्नता रखते हैं। अतः प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि की ओर से प्रस्तुत न्यायिक दृष्टांत प्रार्थी श्रमिक के केस में लागू नहीं होते हैं।

18. उपरोक्त विवेचन के फलस्वरूप प्रकरण में निम्न अवार्ड पारित किया जाता हैः-

अवार्ड

vidhyalaya, Churu, Rajasthan in terminating the

19. अवार्ड आज दिनांक 20.06.2014 को खुले न्यायालय में लिखाया जाकर सुनाया गया जो केन्द्र सरकार को प्रकाषनार्थ नियमानुसार भेजा जावे।

3. अप्रार्थीगण की ओर से स्टेटमेंट ऑफ क्लेम का जवाब

प्रस्तुत कर कथन किया कि प्रार्थी को दिनांक 20.08.93 को अंषकालीन मोटर चालक के पद पर रखा गया था। प्रार्थी की सेवायें दिनांक 16.11.93, 12.02.94 एवं उसके बाद दिनांक 13.12.93 तक के लिये बढ़ायी गयी थी। प्रार्थी की सेवायें दिनांक 13.02.94 को नहीं बढ़ाने के कारण स्वतः ही समाप्त हो गयी। प्रार्थी की सेवासमाप्ति औ0वि0अधि0 1947 की धारा 2(ण ण)(ख ख) के प्रावधानों के अनुसार छंटनी की परिभाषा में नहीं आती है। प्रार्थी द्वारा स्वयं ही स्वेच्छा से कार्य पर नहीं आने पर पंजीकृत ए.डी. डाक द्वारा ड्‌यूटी पर उपस्थित होने पर पत्र दिनांक 27.5.95, 3.7.95, 31.7.95 जारी किये गये। जिसमें यह अंकित किया गया कि प्रार्थी के ड्‌यूटी पर उपस्थित नहीं दी तो तो यह धारणा हो जावेगी कि वह कार्य करने का इच्छुक नहीं है। अप्रार्थी संस्थान ''उद्योग'' की परिभाषा में नहीं आता है, जिस पर औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम के प्रावधान लागू नहीं हाते हैं। प्रार्थी स्वयं की इच्छा से कार्य छोड़कर चला गया था। वाहन चालक का पद (एक्स सर्विस मैन) पूर्व सैनिक के लिये आरक्षित था और जिस पर नियमानुसार जिला सैनिक बोर्ड द्वारा अनुषंषा किये जाने पर रामकरण को नियुक्ति दे दी गयी। प्रार्थी को कभी भी नियमित पद के विरूद्ध

4. प्रार्थी द्वारा जवाबुल जवाब पेष कर कथन किया कि विपक्षी संस्थान पर औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम के प्रावधान लागू होते हैं। प्रार्थी द्वारा 240 दिवस से अधिक कार्य किया गया है। विपक्षी द्वारा भेजे गये पत्रों का प्रार्थी ने लिखित जवाब दिया है। प्रार्थी को वाहन चालक के पद पर वापिस पूरे वेतन सहित बहाल किया जावे।

5. साक्ष्य में प्रार्थी की ओर से स्वयं दषरथ सिंह का शपथ पत्र पेष हुआ है, जिससे विपक्षी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा जिरह की गयी है। विपक्षी की ओर से श्री एल0पी0 शर्मा का शपथ पत्र पेष हुआ है, जिससे प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि ने जिरह की है।

6. उभय पक्षों की बहस सुनी गयी। पत्रावली का अवलोकन किया गया।

7. प्रार्थी के विद्वान प्रतिनिधि का तर्क है कि प्रार्थी को प्रदर्ष डब्ल्यू-1 द्वारा 22/-रू0 दैनिक वेतन पर चालक के पद पर दिनांक 20.08.93 को नियुक्ति दी गयी थी, जिस पर प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 06.08.94 तक लगातार काम किया गया गया। दिनांक 07.08.94 को प्रार्थी को बिना कारण बताये सेवा से हटा दिया गया। प्रार्थी की सेवा अवधि प्रदर्ष डब्ल्यू-2 द्वारा बढ़ायी गयी है। प्रार्थी द्वारा विपक्षी संस्थान में 351 दिवस काम किया गया है। विपक्षी गवाह ने भी अपनी जिरह में प्रार्थी का दिनांक 20.08.93 से 06.08. 94 तक लगातार काम करना स्वीकार किया है। विपक्षी द्वारा 25 एफ की पालना नहीं की गयी। प्रार्थी को एक माह का नोटिस वेतन नहीं दिया गया। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि का तर्क है कि प्रार्थी के नियुक्ति आदेष में यह कहीं नहीं लिखा है कि उसे संविदा आधार पर रखा गया हो। विपक्षी द्वारा भेजे गये पत्रों का प्रार्थी ने लिखित में जवाब दिया है। विपक्षी द्वारा 25 एफ की पालना नहीं की गयी। अतः सेवामुक्ति को अवैध घोषित कर पुनः सेवा में सभी लाभों सहित लिया जावे। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा अपने तर्कों के समर्थन में निम्न न्यायिक दृष्टांत पेष किये गये हैं -

1. 2000 लेब आई सी 3304 एग्रीकल्चर प्रोड्‌यूस मार्केट कमेटी

बनाम अषोक हरिकुनी।

2. 1999 लेब आई सी 97 प्रिंसिपल डूंगर कॉलेज बीकानेर

बनाम ओमप्रकाष व अन्य।

8. विपक्षी के विद्वान प्रतिनिधि का तर्क है कि प्रार्थी को प्रदर्ष पी-1 द्वारा दिनांक 20.08.93 को संविदा आधार पर रखा गया था। प्रदर्ष पी-2 द्वारा प्रार्थी की सेवायें दिनांक 20.11.93 तक बढ़ायी गयी थी। प्रदर्ष पी-3 द्वारा प्रार्थी को दिनांक 13.02.94 से सेवा से पृथक कर दिया गया। विपक्षी प्रतिनिधि का तर्क है कि प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 20.08.93 से 07.08.94 तक 240 दिवस से अधिक काम करना बताया है, जबकि प्रार्थी को दिनांक 13.02.94 से सेवा से हटा दिया गया है। प्रार्थी द्वारा मात्र 175 दिवस ही कार्य किया गया है। प्रार्थी को ड्‌यूटी पर उपस्थित होने बाबत्‌ प्रदर्ष पी-4 लगायत 7 दिनांक 15.05.95, 27.05.95, 03.07.95, 31.07.95 को रजिस्टर्ड ए.डी. पत्र जारी किये गये हैं, जो वापिस प्राप्त हुये हैं। जब ये पत्र प्रार्थी को प्राप्त ही नहीं हुये तो इनकी पालना में उपस्थित कैसे हो सकता है। प्रार्थी द्वारा एक वित्तीय वर्ष में 240 दिवस से अधिक कार्य नहीं किया गया है। औ0वि0अधिनियम की धारा 2 (ओ ओ)(बी बी) के अनुसार 240 दिवस से अधिक कार्य सिद्ध करने का भार प्रार्थी स्वयं पर है। प्रार्थी स्वयं की इच्छा से कार्य छोड़कर चला गया था। विपक्षी पर धारा 25 एफ के प्रावधान लागू नहीं होते हैं। अतः क्लेम खािरज किया जावे। विपक्षी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा अपने तर्कों के समर्थन में निम्न न्यायिक दृष्टांत पेष किये गये हैं -

1. (2005) 5 एस सी सी 100 रिजर्व बैंक ऑफ इण्डिया बनाम

9. उभय पक्षों के तर्कों का मनन किया एवं पत्रावली का

गहनता से अवलोकन व अध्ययन किया गया।

10. पत्रावली के अवलोकन से प्रकट होता है कि प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति विपक्षी द्वारा आदेष दिनांक 20.08.93 द्वारा 22/-रू0 प्रतिदिन की दर से दैनिक वेतन पर की गयी थी। प्र्रदर्ष पी-2 आदेष दिनांक 04.11.93 द्वारा प्रार्थी की सेवाअवधि को नियुक्ति आदेष में वर्णित शर्तों के अधीन दिनांक 16.11.93 तक बढ़ायी गयी थी। प्रदर्ष डब्ल्यू-2 द्वारा प्रार्थी की सेवाअवधि को 179 दिवस की अवधि अथवा नई भर्ती, जो भी पहले हो, तक के लिये बढ़ायी गयी थी। प्रदर्ष पी-3 आदेष दिनांक 12.02.94 द्वारा प्रार्थी को दिनांक 13.02.93 से सेवा से पृथक कर दिया गया।

11. नियुक्ति आदेष दिनांक 20.08.93 के अवलोकन से स्पष्ट है कि प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति दिनांक 20.08.93 से 19.09.93 तक एक माह के लिये दैनिक वेतन पर की गयी थी। नियुक्ति आदेष में प्रार्थी नियमित नियुक्ति के लिये योग्य नहीं होने एवं उसकी सेवायें बिना किसी कारण के एवं बिना कोई नोटिस दिये किसी भी समय समाप्त की जाने की शर्त भी उल्लेखित थी। प्रार्थी की सेवाअवधि को विपक्षी द्वारा आदेष दिनांक 04.11.93 एवं 18.12.93 द्वारा बढ़ाया गया था। परन्तु उक्त आदेष भी नियुक्ति आदेष में उल्लेखित शर्तों के अधीन थे। प्रार्थी को आदेष दिनांक 12.02.94 को दिनांक 13.02.94 से सेवा से पृथक कर दिया गया। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा प्रार्थी का दिनांक 20.08.93 से 06.08.94 तक वाहन चालक के पद पर कार्यरत होना बताया है, जबकि सेवामुक्ति आदेष से स्पष्ट है कि प्रार्थी की सेवायें दिनांक 12.02.94 के आदेष से समाप्त की जा चुकी है। अतः प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि का यह तर्क विष्वसनीय प्रतीत नहीं होता है कि प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 06.08.94 तक कार्य किया गया हो।

12. साक्ष्य प्रार्थी में श्री दषरथ सिंह ने अपने मुख्य परीक्षण में कथन किया है कि प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 20.08.93 से 06.08.94 तक वाहन चालक के पद पर निरन्तर कार्य किया गया। प्रदर्ष डब्ल्यू-2 द्वारा प्रार्थी की सेवाअवधि को 179 दिवस के लिये बढ़ाया गया। प्रार्थी को दिनांक 07.08.94 से बिना कारण बताये सेवा पर लेने से मना कर दिया गया। विपक्षी द्वारा 25 एफ के अनुसार एक माह का नोटिस वेतन और छंटनी मुआवजा नहीं दिया गया। प्रार्थी के बाद रामकरण को वाहन चालक के पद पर रखा गया, जो वर्तमान में भी कार्यरत है। प्रतिपरीक्षा में गवाह ने स्वीकार किया है कि उसकी नियुक्ति एक माह के लिये दैनिक वेतन पर की गयी थी, फिर बाद में सेवा बढ़ा दी थी। प्रार्थी ने अपनी प्रतिपरीक्षा में यह स्वीकार किया है कि उसका चयन नियमों के तहत किया था या नहीं, मुझे मालूम नहीं है। गवाह ने प्रदर्ष डी-4 पत्र प्राप्त होने पर एल.पी. शर्मा ने ड्‌यूटी पर नहीं लेना बताया है। गवाह द्वारा दिनांक 06.08.94 तक लगातार काम किया गया हो, इस संबंध में कोई भी दस्तावेजी एवं मौखिक साक्ष्य न्यायाधिकरण के समक्ष पेष नहीं की है। जिससे यह नहीं माना जा सकता कि प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 06.08.94 तक लगातार काम किया गया हो।

13. विपक्षी की ओर से साक्ष्य में एल0पी0 शर्मा परीक्षित हुये हैं। जिन्होंने अपने मुख्य परीक्षण में प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति दैनिक वेतन पर एक माह के लिये किया जाना तथा बाद में उसकी सेवायें बढ़ायी जाना बताया है। प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 15.05.95, 27.05.95, 03.07. 95, 26/31.05.95 द्वारा प्रार्थी को ड्‌यूटी पर उपस्थित होना तथा उपरोक्त पत्र प्रार्थी को प्राप्त नहीं होना कथन किया है। विपक्षी संस्थान पर औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम के प्रावधान लागू नहीं होना कथन किया है। गवाह द्वारा प्रार्थी को बार-बार बुलाने पर भी उसके कार्य पर नहीं आने पर एक अन्य व्यक्ति को कुछ समय के लिये तथा उसके बाद रामकरण को नियमानुसार नियुक्ति दी जानी कथन किया है। विपक्षी गवाह ने अपनी प्रतिपरीक्षा में भी ऐसा कुछ कथन नहीं किया है कि प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 06.08.94 तक कार्य किया गया हो और विपक्षी द्वारा जारी पत्र प्राप्त होने पर वह ड्‌यूटी पर उपस्थित हुआ हो।

14. प्रार्थी द्वारा अपने तर्कों में 240 दिवस से अधिक काम किया जाना कथन किया है, परन्तु प्रार्थी की ओर से ऐसी कोई दस्तावेजी एवं मौखिक साक्ष्य पेष नहीं की गयी, जिससे यह प्रमाणित होता हो कि प्रार्थी द्वारा लगातार एक वित्तीय वर्ष में 240 दिवस काम किया गया है। उभय पक्षों द्वारा प्रस्तुत दस्तावेजों के आधार पर प्रार्थी द्वारा मात्र दिनांक 20.08.93 से 12.02.94 तक काम करना पाया जाता है। अतः प्रार्थी द्वारा एक कलेण्डर वर्ष में 240 दिवस से अधिक कार्य नहीं किया गया है। अतः प्रार्थी के संबंध में विपक्षी संस्थान पर औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम के प्रावधान लागू नहीं होते हैं।

15. प्रार्थी द्वारा 25 एफ की पालना नहीं किये जाने का तर्क दिया गया है। जब प्रार्थी के संबध्ां में संस्थान पर औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम के प्रावधान ही लागू नहीं होते हैं, तो 25 एफ की पालना की जानी आवष्यक नहीं है।

16. प्रार्थी को जारी पत्र प्रदर्ष पी-3 लगायत 7 जारी किये गये हैं, जिनमें स्पष्ट रूप से उल्लेख किया गया है कि आपके ड्‌यूटी पर उपस्थित नहीं होने पर यह माना जावेगा कि आप कार्य करने के इच्छुक नहीं है। प्रार्थी द्वारा प्रदर्ष पी-4 की पालना में ड्‌यूटी पर उपस्थित होना कथन किया है। परन्तु विपक्षी द्वारा जारी पत्रों के साथ लिफाफे की प्रति भी पेष की गयी है, जिस पर डाक विभाग6928 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)] की रिपोर्ट अंकित है। इसके अतिरिक्त प्रार्थी द्वारा केवल प्रदर्ष पी-4 प्राप्त होना बताया है, जबकि प्रार्थी को उसके बाद भी प्रदर्ष पी 5 लगायत 7 पत्र जारी किये गये हैं, उसके बाजवूद प्रार्थी ड्‌यूटी पर उपस्थित नहीं हुआ है। अतः प्रार्थी अपनी मर्जी से ही ड्‌यूटी से अनुपस्थित रहा है। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि की ओर से प्रस्तुत न्यायिक दृष्टांतों के तथ्य एवं परिस्थितियॉं हस्तगत प्रकरण से भिन्नता रखते हैं, अतः उक्त सभी न्यायिक दृष्टांत प्रार्थी के केस में लागू नहीं होते हैं।

17. उपरोक्त विवेचन के फलस्वरूप स्पष्ट है कि प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति दैनिक वेतन पर बिना कारण बताये, बिना कोई नोटिस दिये सेवा से हटा दिये जाने तथा नियमित पद पर योग्य नहीं होने की शर्त के साथ एक माह के लिये दी गयी थी, जो 179 दिवस की अवधि या नियमित नियुक्ति, जो भी पहले हो, तक के लिये ही सेवाअवधि को बढ़ाया गया था। अतः प्रार्थी की सेवा पूर्णतया अस्थायी थी। प्रार्थी द्वारा एक वर्ष में 240 दिवस काम नहीं किया गया है। अतः औद्योगिक विवाद अधिनियम के प्रावधान लागू नहीं होने से विपक्षी द्वारा 25एफ की पालना की जानी आवष्यक नहीं थी।

This case coming up for final hearing on 23.09.2014 and this Tribunal-cum-Labour Court on 26.09.2014 passed the following:

2. The dispute is:

'Whether the action of the Society For Promotion of Tourism and Sports in denying the demand of Shri Pookunhi, K. and 16 others to regularize their employment is correct? (list enclosed) If not what relief they are entitled to?'

3. After service of summons workmen Nos.1,3,4,6 and 11 to 14 entered appearance and others remained ex-parte. Those workmen who had entered appearance did not file any claim statement in spite of granting several adjournments. Afterwards they were continuously absenting themselves without any representation and hence they were also set ex-parte.

4. Management has not taken any endeavour to substantiate that the demand of those workmen to regularize their employment is not correct though opportunity was given for that purpose. As the workmen remained ex-parte without filing any claim statement it can be held that there exists no dispute and hence 'no dispute award' is passed in this case. The reference is answered accordingly.

issue in the affirmative i.e., the Domestic Enquiry held against the I party by the II Party is Fair and Proper and then another succeeding Presiding Officer after hearing the arguments of the learned advocates appearing for both sides on merits by award dated 17.10.2002 rejected the reference.

receiving evidence of the Enquiry Officer for the II Party and of the I Party workman and hearing their learned advocates by order dated 26.07.1999 answered the said 5. The I Party who joined the services of the II party bank as probationary clerk and was serving at its Kunigal Branch, on 09.11.1989 he was placed under suspension alleging that he has committed certain gross misconduct and then by obtaining an investigation done on the alleged misconduct through Sh. S Gurunath issued with charge sheet dated 07.03.1990 as under :

"Charge Sheet

You are working at our Kunigal branch since

02.12.1985.

On 18.10.89, you were working in the department comprising Current Account/OD/OCC/VSL/GL and minor subsidiaries. On that day, you told the Second Line Manager Sri G R Rao that some of the operative Current & OD Account-holders have inoperative Current Accounts and you would transfer the balance in such inoperative accounts to operative accounts of the parties and prepared the following Debit & Credit slips:

Debit from Credit to Amount

Inoperative Current Account Operative OD A/c of Sri B K Gopalakrishna No. of Sri B.K.

Gopalakrishna Rs. 960/-[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6931 Inoperative Current Account Operative Current of Sri Jayaprakash A/c. of Sri K Rs. 187.11

Jayaprakash

Inoperative Current Account Operative Current of M/s. Sudha Printers A/c. of M/s. Sudha Rs. 290/-

Printers

Inoperative Current Account Operative Current A/c. of M/s. Siddeshwara Service of M/s. Siddeshwara

Station Fertilisers Rs. 5700/-

You had taken the above slips personally to Sri G R Rao, Second Line Manager, surpassing the Current Account Supervisor Sri K Anjanappa on the plea that the transfer of funds from the inoperative accounts was to be authorised only by Manager. Since the Manager was busy, he had authenticated the slips without verification.

While verifying the above slips on 23.10.89, Sri G. R. Rao, II Line Manager, observed that you had transferred a sum of Rs. 5700/- from Inoperative Current Account of M/s. Siddeswara Service Station to M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers knowing very well that the Proprietors of the above firms are different.

The investigation in the matter has revealed that you had contacted Sri K R Sadashiva, Proprietor of M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers on 17.10.89 evening & 18.10.89 morning and informed him that you had been sanctioned a Crop Loan and the fertiliser component of Rs. 5700/- would be credited to Current Account of M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilsers. You further told Sri K R Sadashiva to pay you Rs. 5200/- and to adjust the remaining Rs. 500/- towards the amount you owed to him. Accordingly, Sri K R Sadashiva came to the branch on 18.10.89 & drew a Self cheque for Rs. 5200/- obtained the token No. 12 and handed over the token No. 12 to you for collecting the amount. Later you had collected the cash of Rs. 5200/- from the Cashier.

On knowing from the Senior Manager that no crop loan had been sanctioned to you and credit of Rs. 5700/- given to the Current Account of M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers on 18.10.89 was wrong one, Sri K R Sadashiva instructed you to recredit the amount of Rs. 5700/-. Accordingly, you had remitted cash of Rs. 2000/- on 2.11.89 & Rs. 3700/- on 9.11.89 to the Current Account of M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers.

By your act of mis-representing the facts to the Bank and to the customer and misappropriating the amount of Rs. 5200/-, you have committed gross misconduct as per Chapter XI Regulation 3 clause (j) of Canara Bank Service Code.

All your above actions being prejudicial to the interests of the Bank, you have committed gross misconduct as per Chapter XI Regulation 3 clause (m) of Canara Bank Service Code.

REASONS

Sri K R Sadashiva, Proprietor, Siddeshwara Fertilisers, Kunigal as Ex.M-1 to Ex.M-31 respectively and after of close the evidence of the management since the I Party did not choose to examine any witnesses and rest contended by giving his statement in writing after receiving the written brief from the Presenting Officer and the I Party preparing his enquiry finding the charge as proved and the appropriate punishment would be dismissal he issued a notice to the I Party on the same day i.e. 23.08.1990 to show cause why he should not recommend for imposing the punishment of dismissal and after hearing him on 05.09.1990 he submitted his enquiry finding to the Disciplinary Authority proposing for dismissal and then the Disciplinary Authority by his order dated 20.10.1990 accepted the enquiry finding and the proposal made by the Enquiry Officer for inflicting the punishment of dismissal and communicated the same to the I Party. Then, the I Party when preferred appeal dated 07.03.1991 to the General Manager, the Appellate Authority after affording an opportunity of hearing to the I Party observing that there were no reasons to interfere either with the findings of the Enquiry Officer or the punishment imposed dismissed the appeal by his order dated 20.11.1991. Then the I Party after lapse of four years when approached the Assistant Labour Commissioner (C), K G F for conciliation, the said ALC(C) registering it in File No. 7(3)95-A/K since submitted failure report to the Ministry, the Ministry made this reference for adjudication on the following schedule :

"Whether the management of Canara Bank, Bangalore is justified in dismissing Sri S. Rajanna, Staff No. 28236, Clerk from service w.e.f. 20.10.90? If not, what relief is Sri Rajanna entitled to and from which date?"

6. Since as already adverted to by me above, my learned predecessor has held the Domestic Enquiry conducted by the II Party against the I Party as fair and proper by order dated 26.07.1999 and same is not disturbed in the Writ Petition filed by the I Party after award dated 17.10.2002 was passed and the evidence of the I party has been received on the alleged victimization and being not gainfully employed the points that now arises for my consideration are:

Point No.1 : Whether the finding of the Enquiry

Officer the charge being proved is perverse?

Point No. 2 : If not, Whether the punishment of dismissal imposed by the Disciplinary Authority accepting the proposal made by the Enquiry Officer which has been upheld by the Appellate Authority is disproportionate?

Point No. 3 : What Order/Award?

7. On appreciation of the pleadings, oral and documentary evidence brought on record in the Domestic 8. Point No. 1 : Since the I Party in the Domestic Enquiry unequivocally admitted that he did told the II Line Manager Sh. G R Rao some of the operative, current and OD Account holders have inoperative current accounts and that he will transfer the balances from the inoperative accounts to their operative accounts and that accordingly he transferred amounts as indicated on page 2 of the Charge Sheet and also prepared the corresponding debit and credit slips as mentioned therein and also had taken the debit and credit slips in connection with the transfer of amounts to II Line Manager, Sh. G R Rao without bringing to the knowledge of Sh. K Anjanappa the Current Accounts Supervisor of the branch and that on 18.10.1989 Sh. K R Sadashiva, Proprietor of Siddeshwara Fertilisers came to the Bank and gave a self cheque for Rs. 5200.00 and obtained token No. 12 and handed over the same to him for collecting the amount and accordingly he collected cash of Rs. 5200.00 and further on 02.11.1989 and 09.11.1989 he did remit cash of Rs. 2000.00 and Rs. 3700.00 respectively to the Current Account of Siddeshwara Fertilisers, the only aspect that is to be seen is whether this act on the part of I Party was bonafide or made inadvertently under the impression that the proprietor of M/s. Siddeshwara Service Station and M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers were one and the same as tried to be made or tried to be explained by him. Before I proceed to consider whether it was his bonafide or inadvertent act, I wish to place here with regard to his admission which I referred to above from his statement to the Charge as well as the statement he has given in his own hand writing after the evidence of the management was concluded which reads as under :

the extract from the proceedings of the Enquiry Officer dated 28.05.1990

"E.O. Please identify yourself.

CSE I am S.Rajanna, Staff No. 28236, Clerk (U/S) at

our Kunigal Branch.

E.O. Have you received the above referred

chargesheet

CSE Yes

E.O. Have you gone through the same and

understood its contents

CSE Yes

E.O. Do you admit the charges?

CSE I would like to make the following admissions:

[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6933

(1) It is a fact that I told the II Line Mgr. of our Branch Sri G R Rao that some of the operative current and OD A/c Holders have inoperative current accounts and that I will be transferring the balances in these inoperative accounts to operative accounts of the parties.

(2) It is also a fact that I have transferred amounts as indicated on page 2 of the charge sheet and also prepared the corresponding debit and credit slips in these connections i.e. (a) Rs. 960/- from the inoperative current a/c of Sri B K Gopalakrishna to the operative OD a/c of this party. (b) Rs. 187.11 from the inoperative current a/c of Sri K Jayaprakash to his operative current a/c (c) Rs. 290/- from the inoperative current a/c of M/s. Sudha Printers to their operative current (d) Rs. 5700/- from the inoperative current a/c of M/s. Siddeshwara Service Station to operative current a/c of M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers.

(3) It is also a fact that I had taken the debit and the credit slips in connection with transfer of amounts as above to II Line Mgr. of our Branch Sri G R Rao without bringing this matter to the knowledge to Sri K Anjanappa who was the current a/c supervisor of the Branch on the basis that such transfer of funds from inoperative accounts was to be authorised by the manager only.

(4) It is a fact that on 18.10.1989 Sri K R Sadashiva, Proprietor of Siddeshwara Fertilisers came to our Kunigal Branch and he has drawn a self cheque for Rs. 5200/- and obtained token No. 12 and handed over the said token to me for collecting the amount. It is also a fact that I collected cash ; of Rs. 5200/- towards this from the cashier.

(5) It is a fact that on 2.11.1989 and 9.11.1989 I remitted cash of Rs. 2000/- and Rs. 3700/- respectively to the current a/c of Siddeshwara Fertlisers at the branch.

I deny all other allegations against me contained in

the above charge sheet."

the extract from his statement given after the

evidence of the management

I admit that I had told the II Line Manager of our Branch Sri G R Rao that I will be transferring some inoperative current accounts to operative current account and vice versa. I initiated the move to reduce the work load and to make the department comprehensive."

9. Moreover, the evidence adduced by management on these aspects through MWs 2 to 6 has not been challenged by their cross-examination. If at all the act of the I Party transferring the amount of Rs. 5700.00 from the inoperative account of M/s. Siddeshwara Service Station to the operative account of M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers was not qualified with any other involvement of him in drawing that amount transferred to Siddeshwara Fertilisers and recrediting the same his defence that the act of transfer was bonafide or inadvertently made would have been probable/acceptable but the evidence on record adduced through MW 7 Sh. K R Sadashiva, Proprietor of M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers when do suggest that just a day before the amount was transferred i.e., 17.10.1989 and also on the date on which the amount was transferred i.e. 18.10.1989 he did contact him i.e. Sh. K R Sadashiva/MW 7 to whose account M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers the amount from M/s. Siddeshwara Service Station was transferred and made him to believe that a crop loan of Rs. 5700.00 sanctioned in his/I Party favour being credited to his Current Account M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers requested him to draw the said amount and to pay him cash of Rs. 5200.00 after adjusting Rs. 500.00 taken from him and accordingly on 18.10.1989 itself the said Sh. K R Sadashiva, Proprietor of M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers presented a Self cheque No. 013683 for Rs. 5200.00 and handed over the token to him/I Party and he/I Party collected that amount, in the absence of any evidence to believe his/I Party version that he just collected that amount on behalf of Sh. K R Sadashiva from the Cash Counter and handed over it to Sh. K R Sadashiva the imputation made against him cannot be disbelieved. Though Sh. K R Sadashiva, Proprietor of M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers examined as MW 7 in the enquiry categorically confirmed the above fact appearing in his written statement given to the Branch Manager as well as before the Investigating Officer produced at Ex M-31 and M-4 respectively, I party has not challenged the same in his cross-examination. What all he asked in his cross- examination reads as under :

"CSE – It is alleged against me by the Bank that I have taken Rs. 5200/- represented by Ex M26. Can you tell me whether this is taken by me or you yourself?

MW 7 – the cash has been taken by Shri Rajanna

only.

CSE – You had given the token to me in respect of this cheque. Have I not handed over the amount of Rs. 5200/- to you?

MW 7 – I have not received the amount from Shri Rajanna in respect of the Cheque 013863 for Rs. 5200/- dt. 18.10.1990."

10. Since the defence/version of I Party that Sh. K R Sadashiva had given him the token just to collect the amount from the cash counter and to hand over it to him do suggest that he was very much acquainted with him as such he was not knowing the Proprietor of M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers and M/s. Siddeshwara Service Station were different while making transfer is unbelievable. If at all as tried to be made out by the I Party the Proprietor of M/s. Siddeshwara Fertilisers namely Sh. K R Sadashiva on 18.10.1989 after tendering the cheque for Rs. 5200.00 and collecting the token handed over the token to him/I Party just to collect the amount and to hand over the same6934 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)] Government hereby publishes the Award (Ref.

ANNEXURE

later on there was no reason for Sh. K R Sadashiva to impute him/I Party as made out in his statement marked as Ex M-4 and evidence given in the enquiry. Absolutely, no reasons are brought out in the cross-examination of Sh. K R Sadashiva/MW 7 for falsely implicating him in this fashion. Under the circumstances, the explanation or defence that is tried to be made out by the I Party is unacceptable and there are no reasons to say that the finding of the Enquiry Officer charge being proved as perverse. Accordingly, I arrive at conclusion of answering this Point in the negative.

S.O. 2785.—In pursuance of Section 17 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (14 of 1947), the Central "Whether the alleged illegal termination and claim for reinstatement into service with backwages by Sri Suryakant S. Ratkalle against the management of Indian Bank is legal and justified? What relief the workman is entitled to?"

2. On receipt of the reference while registering it in C R 73/2008 when notices were issued to both sides they entered their appearance through their respect advocates and claim statement came to be filed on 03.03.2010 and counter statement on 24.11.2010.

[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6935

3. The I party in his claim statement asserts that he was taken by the II party as Casual Attender on Daily Wages in the year 1992 and engaged intermittently for a few days in a month till 1996 showing the payments made by him in their records as miscellaneous expenses and from May 1997 onwards till December 2000 his services were taken continuously except the intervening holidays and the days he availed leave and wages paid to him in the year 1997 are debited as amount paid to an officer for TA and in respect of the payments made to him from 1998 onwards till December 2000 as maintenance of premises (MOP). It is further asserted that in the initial years the rate of daily wages was Rs. 25/- later increased from time to time upto Rs. 80/- and abruptly from 06.11.2000 it was reduced to Rs. 50/- per day and with malafide intention his service was discontinued for two weeks w.e.f. 13.11.2000 saying that thereafter he would be engaged for only two weeks in a month. Then through his lawyers notice dated 20.11.2000 informed the said facts to the Chairperson and Managing Director of the Bank with request to withdraw the steps taken by the Belgaum Branch Manager of unlawfully reducing the rate of wages and creating an artificial break and to absorb him as a regular and permanent employee of the Bank either in the existing vacancy at Belgaum or at any other place convenient to him but the II Party instead of giving due consideration to the contents of the notice and redressing his legitimate grievances informed its concerned officers to take action against him and thereafter the Branch Manager on 07.12.2000 at the end of the working hours informed him his services are no more required from the following day which amounts to illegal retrenchment within the meaning of Section 2(oo) of the Industrial Dispute Act being violative of provisions of Section 25(f) and 25(n). He has further asserted that there were three sanctioned posts of Sub-staff and Sweeper at the Belgaum Branch of the II Party namely One Daftry, One Attender, One Sweeper and out of them on 29.02.1996 when Sh. Shankarlal Chauhan retired the same was vacant and no regular permanent employee was appointed against that vacancy, therefore, he is entitle for reinstatement in the services of the Bank with full backwages and other consequential benefits.

4. The II party in its counter statement contends that its recruitment rules for sub-staff either on permanent or temporary basis are being as under :

"The General Manager in charge of HRM Department at the Corporate Office should sanction the vacancy.

After getting the sanction, indent is required to be placed with the employment exchange as per the eligibility criteria duly signed by the Assistant General Manager and counter signed by the Circle Head.

On receiving the list of the candidates so sponsored by the Employment Exchange, candidates to be interviewed. After medical examination of the candidates selected in the order of merit have to be appointed in Bank service on probation."

at no point of time it neither appointed nor issued any appointment letter to the I Party as such there exists no relationship of employer and employee between them as such the dispute is outside the purview of the ID Act, 1947. It is further contended any engagement of the I Party by the Branch if any is in accordance with Section 2(oo) (bb) of the ID Act, 1947 as such the contention of the I Party that he is illegally retrenched does not hold any water. It is also contended that in view of the observations of the Hon'ble Supreme Court entertaining such claims amounts to back door entry and is not permissible. It is further contended that there is no oral termination as alleged since its Branch Manager's are not the appointing authorities for the sub-staff and that every branch is given daily maintenance allowance which will be spent by the Branch Manager's as per requirement and amount paid from such fund cannot be treated as Wage as claimed by the I Party. Further denying that there was vacancy and against the same the I Party was engaged and that as per its information he has been running a telephone booth as such he is not entitle for any of the reliefs asked for by him.

5. After completion of the pleadings when the matter was posted for evidence the Learned Advocate appearing for the II party while filing the affidavit of Sh. B M Parvathikar claims to have served as Branch Manager in Belgaum Branch of the II Party from 1999 to 2002 examined him on oath as MW 1 and closed his side, whereas, the Learned Advocate appearing for the I Party while getting exhibited letters addressed by MW 1 to other banks dated 22.10.1999, 15.11.1999, 15.02.2000, 03.03.2000, 24.05.2000 and 08.11.2000 under his signature; four debit slips dated 15.11.1999, 03.10.2000, 06.11.2000 and 09.11.2000 under his signature; copy of the I Party application dated 12.12.2000 to furnish extract of the pass book along with the reply of the then Manager; letter addressed by the Manager to I Party regarding his request for New Pass Book as Ex W-1 to Ex W-11 and Ex W-1(a) to Ex W-10(a) in the cross- examination of MW 1 by filing the affidavit of I Party workman swearing to the facts of the claim statement examining him on oath as WW 1 got exhibited copies of 15 letters issued by the Manager, Belgaum Branch to different bank managers through I Party; copies of two consolidated bills in respect of Honorarium of State Government Freedom Fighters sent through I Party; copies of four vouchers for having made payment to the I Party; copy of letter dated 18.01.2000 addressed by the Assistant General Manager to the Zonal Office; copy of translation of news item in6936 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)] he is entitle for reinstatement, backwages, continuity of services etc., for the following

REASONS

Tarun Bharat daily dated 15.01.1997; credit voucher dated 19.05.1998; two copies of lawyer notices dated 20.11.2000 and 16.01.2001; Original Pass Book in respect of I Party; copy of letter addressed by one Angallar to the General Secretary of Indian Bank Employees Union dated 24.05.1999 to take up the cause of I Party as Ex W-12 to Ex W-14 series, Ex W-15 to Ex W-17, Ex W-18 series, Ex W-19 and Ex W-20. The learned counsel for the I Party also while filing the affidavit of two ex-employees of the II Party Bank namely Sh. P B Murgol and Smt. Shailaja K Patil examined them as WW 2 and 3 respectively.

6. With the above pleadings, oral and documentary evidence, arguments addressed by both sides were heard.

9. The I Party who alleges in the claim statement that for his alleged services intermittently between 1992 to 1996 the payments made to him were debited as Miscellaneous Expenses and the payments for his continuous service from May 1997 till May 1998 as TA to an Officer and from May 1998 to December 2000 as maintenance of premises is not supported by any evidence except his allegations in the claim statement and the self swearing statements in his affidavit filed in lieu of the evidence and the bald statements of two ex-employees examined as WW 2 and WW 3 not probablised by any circumstances. Therefore, the claim made on his behalf that his services on daily wages were availed by the II Party against a vacant existing post is not supported by any evidence. In the two decisions cited by the Learned advocate appearing for the I Party reported in ILR 2001 KAR 3407 and 2013 LLR 1140 on facts it was held that the Services of a Workman were being taken for long period against vacant existing post on daily wages it was unfair labour practice on the part of the management and those workmen were entitle for regularisation/absorption prospectively from the date of Award. From the evidence on record as urged on behalf of the II party the Branch Manager of Belgaum Branch of the II Party may have taken the services of I Party for the purpose of Sweeping the premises making him payment from the allowance provided under maintenance of premises at his disposal and such payments made to the I Party for his services cannot be treated as wages or him as a workman of the II Party. Moreover, there being no positive cogent evidence the I Party having continuously worked for a period of 240 days in a calendar year just allegedly asking him not to come to work from a date alleged by him as 08.12.2000 it cannot be termed or treated as an illegal retrenchment. Under the circumstances, I have arrived at conclusion that the alleged illegal termination and claim for reinstatement into service with backwages by Sh. Suryakat Ratkalle is not legal and justified and that he is not entitle for any relief. In the result, I pass the following

ORDER

7. The learned advocate appearing for the I Party urged that though the II party taken the services of I Party from the year 1992 till 1996 intermittently paying daily wages since shown it as miscellaneous expenses in its accounts and taken his service continuously from May 1997 till December 2000 for the payments made in the year 1997 shown as TA paid to Officer of the Bank and from May 1998 to December 2000 for maintenance of premises it is an unfair labour practice played by the II party bank as such denying him work from 08.12.2000 amounts to illegal retrenchment and he is entitle for reinstatement, absorption as a permanent sub-staff, full backwages and all other consequential benefits. In support of his arguments he cited the decisions reported in ILR 2001 KAR 3407 between UPSRTC, Kanpur and another vs. Roadways Karmachari Sanyukt Parishad, UP and 2013 LLR 1140 between State of Karnataka & others vs. H Ganesh Rao and others. Interalia, the learned advocate appearing for the II party urged that there being no iota of evidence the I Party having continuously worked for 240 days in a calendar year nor evidence having received wages his claim that he had intermittently worked between 1992 to 1996 and continuously from May 1997 to December 2000 being baseless and as there was no sanctioned post of Sweeper the Branch Manager by making payment under the amount allotted for maintenance might have taken the services of I Party for the purpose of Sweeping and made payments from such fund as such his claim that he is a workman of the II Party and is entitle for reinstatement, backwages, etc., is unsustainable.

The Reference is Rejected holding that the alleged illegal termination and claim for reinstatement into service with backwages by Sri Suryakant S Ratkalle against the management of Indian Bank is illegal and not justified and he is not entitle for any other relief.

On appreciation of the pleadings, oral and documentary evidence brought on record in the light of the arguments put forward by the learned advocates for both sides, I am of the opinion that I Party failed to prove that his services was availed by the II Party against sanctioned post intermittently between 1992 to 1996 and continuously from May 1997 to December 2000 and illegally terminated/ retrenched w.e.f. 08.12.2000 and that[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6937 नई दिल्ली, 20 अक्तूबर, 2014

You are in the habit of remaining absent more frequently and unauthorisedly, without intimation, submitting proper leave application or obtaining prior permission/sanction from the Competent Authority, in utter violation of leave rules of the Bank.

You were earlier charge sheeted on 6 occasions for remaining absent unauthorisedly in violation of leave rules of the Bank and appropriate punishment were imposed on you. The details are furnished below:

CH 8/98

Inspite of initiating disciplinary action and imposing appropriate punishments as stated above, you have neither chosen to improve your leave record nor adhere to the leave rules of the Bank, thereby affecting the smooth functioning of the branch.

In the instant case, you are remaining absent from duties since 16.8.1999. You had, vide your letter dt. 16.8.99, received by the branch on 8.9.99, requested for appropriate category of leave for the period from 16.8.99 to 8.9.99. You should have reported back for duties on 9.9.99. However, you have sought extension of leave vide your application dated 10.9.99, 1.10.99, 20.10.99 and 16.1.99 received by the branch on 22.9.99, 16.10.99, 20.10.99 and 3.12.99 respectively till 4.12.99.

Staff Section (W), BCD vide their letter No. BLSW:E.13:24971:99 dt. 11.12.99 had instructed you to report back for duties immediately. However, you had failed to report back for duties and continued to remain absent unauthorisedly. The above letter sent to your last known address has been returned undelivered.

You have, further sought extension of leave from 24.12.99 to 22.1.2000 on the ground of sickness. You have not submitted the leave application for the period from 5.12.99 to 23.12.99.

An employee seeking privilege leave has to give requisite one month's notice and obtain sanction before proceeding on leave.

Medical Practitioner recommending leave for a specified period. The Medical fitness Certificate has to be submitted while rejoining the duties. The employee seeking extention of leave has to submit the leave application before the expiry if the leave period already sought/ sanctioned and obtain sanction before the commencement of extended period of leave.

You have failed to comply with the above requirements of the leave rules of the Bank. Your leave record is dismal reflection of your poor attendance to the Bank and scant regard you have towards adherence to the leave rules of the Bank. So far, your absence for 285 days have been treated as on 'Loss of Pay', besides treating 1142 days as 'Absence without leave' and hence on 'Loss of Pay'.

By your above action of remaining absent continuously and unauthorisedly for a period of more than 30 days, you have committed 'GROSS MISCONDUCT' within the meaning of Chapter XI, Regulation 3, Clause (r) of Canara Bank Service Code.

DEPUTY GENERAL MANAGER"

6. On I Party in his reply dated 14.07.2000 without disputing being charge sheeted and punished earlier as mentioned in the charge sheet since stated as his sister lost her husband in May 1999 and became a psychic patient he had to look after her treatment and conduct ceremonies of his brother-in-law and in August 1999 he lost his another uncle who was issueless he had to perform his ceremonies and rights and added to it as he slipped down and sustained hurt in left leg which has limited movements and has become immobilized he was to take treatment at his native place with nati vaidya and due to this unfortunate incidents he was compelled to remain absent and that he submitted leave applications and sent telegram to the branch for sanction of leave from 05.12.1999 to 24.12.1999 and that its letter No. BLSW/E13/24971/99 dated 11.12.1999 was not delivered as he was in native place taking treatment for the injury to his left leg the absence may be viewed leniently and sympathetically. The Disciplinary Authority being not satisfied with the said reply which was not accompanied with any material/ enclosures supporting the facts he narrated in the reply[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6939 the Appellate Authority after affording him an opportunity of hearing upheld the punishment imposed by the Disciplinary Authority by his order dated 23.04.2002. Then after lapse of about four years the CSE/I Party approached the ALC(C), Bangalore for conciliation and as the said conciliation failed it resulted in this reference.

7. As already adverted to by me above the Domestic Enquiry conducted against the I Party being held as fair and proper and I Party has lead his evidence on the points of victimization and being not gainfully employed and arguments on merits have been heard the points that arise now for my consideration are :

Point No.1 : Whether the I Party is able to demonstrate the finding of the Enquiry Officer being baseless or perverse necessitating the interference by this tribunal?

Point No. 2 : If not, whether the punishment of compulsory retirement imposed by the Disciplinary Authority and upheld by the Appellate Authority is disproportionate to the misconduct proved against the I Party?

Point No. 3 : What Order/Award?

8. On appreciation of the pleadings, evidence brought on record in the Domestic Enquiry by both the sides, the report of the Enquiry Officer, the orders passed by the Disciplinary Authority and the Appellate Authority in the lights of the arguments addressed by the learned advocates appearing for both the sides my finding on Point No. 1 and 2 are in the negative and Point No. 3 as per final order for the following

REASONS

Then the Enquiry Officer while causing the notice to the CSE/I Party and the management representative securing their presence observing the formalities of preliminary hearing while recording the evidence of Sh.

Then the Disciplinary Authority while sending the copy of the enquiry report calling for explanation and affording an opportunity of hearing by his order dated 01.01.2001 imposed the punishment of compulsory retirement and on appeal by the CSE/I Party

9. The learned advocate appearing for the I Party while referring to MEx-13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 21 which are the letter and telegram of the I Party seeking leave and DEx-2, 3, 4 the orders sanctioning the leave urges that all the leave applications being sanctioned/regularised the charge of unauthorised absence is unsustainable as such the Enquiry Officer ought to have held the charge as not proved. With due respect to the learned advocate appearing for the I Party from the above documents referred to by him it is explicit that he did not apply for leave before hand and submitted them at a later date antedated, the first letter at MEX 13 was being received in the office of the II Party seeking leave from 16.08.1999 to 08.09.1999 only on 08.09.1999 which is date 16.08.1999 but no evidence is produced even having posted or forwarded this application on 16.08.1999. Similar is the case with regard to the other applications as well. Only because the II Party made sanction of leave on these applications as evidenced under exhibit DEx 2, 3 and 4 it does not take away his act of habitually remaining unauthorised absence without applying in advance and getting the leave sanctioned. Moreover the documentary evidence produced at exhibit MEx-1 to MEx – 12 do indicate as stated in the charge sheet being6940 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)] punished on six occasions for his unauthorised absence. Since the six prior punishments imposed after issuing charge sheets being not at all challenged his claim that the said charge sheets were issued only to frame him for the purpose of termination of services is unacceptable. Since the evidence on record do indicate his absence for 285 days were being treated as on Loss of Pay and 1142 days as Absence without leave and on Loss of Pay and his last action of remaining absent continuously and unauthorisedly for a period of 30 days without any reasons being established the Enquiry Officer did not commit any error in holding that the charge is proved. Besides his remaining unauthorised absence for such a long period he sleeping over the matter for over a period of 4 years after the impugned order of compulsory retirement was passed in approaching the ALC(C) suggest that he had no mind to continue in the job. Though only delay in raising the dispute is not a ground to reject the reference on the ground of delay as no limitation is provided in the Act as urged by the learned advocate appearing for the I Party relying on the decision of the Apex Court reported in 2011 (1) LLJ 615 SC, addition to this delay his act of remaining unauthorised absence over a period of 1427 days as observed by me indicates that he had no mind to continue the job. Therefore, absolutely I find no reason to say the finding of the Enquiry Officer charge being proved as baseless or perverse. Accordingly, I arrived at conclusion of answering the Point No. 1 in the Negative.

10. As urged on behalf of the II Party relying on the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of M/s. L&T Komatsu Limited vs. Mr. Uday Kumar reported in 2008 LLR 113 leave not being a matter of right, habitual absenteeism amounts to gross violation of discipline punishment of dismissal being held justified in the instant case also having regard to the habitual absenteeism of the I Party is rightly taken into consideration by the Disciplinary Authority and having regard to his disability imposed with compulsory retirement instead of dismissal which also could have been passed for this misconduct, absolutely, I find no reason to say that the punishment imposed being disproportionate. Under the circumstances, having arrived at conclusion of answering this Point as well in the Negative, I pass the following.

AWARD

Passed on 21.8.2014

Vide Order No.L-42012/120/2009 (IR(DU)), dated 3.3.2010 the Central Government in exercise of the powers conferred by Clause (d) of Sub-Section (1) and Sub-Section 2(A) of Section 10 of Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (in short Act) has referred the following industrial dispute for adjudication to this Tribunal.

"Whether the action of the management of M/s AKS Engineers & Contractors, in terminating the services of their workman Sh. Beshriya Ram w.e.f. 31/7/2008 is legal and justified? If not, what relief the workman is entitled to?"

In response to the notice, the workman submitted statement of claim pleading that respondent No.1 is the principal employer who is engaged for the construction of 'Kol Dam Hydro Electric Power Project' at Harmoda and has given contract to respondent No.2 who in turn engaged respondent No.3 as its sub-contractor. The workman was engaged by respondent No.3 on 7.8.2004 where he worked till 1.8.2008 when his services were retrenched.

Workman has challenged the retrenchment on the ground that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also appointed large number of workers on the project after his retrenchment. It is also pleaded that the management did not take permission from the appropriate Government for effecting the retrenchment and as such the retrenchment is illegal and he is deemed to be in service.

The claim was contested by the NTPC i.e. respondent No.1 as well as by the Italian Thai Development Co. Ltd. who has been impleaded as respondent No.2, whereas M/s AKS Engineers and Contractors who is impleaded as respondent No.3 was proceeded against ex parte.

Respondent No.1 filed written statement controverting the averments and pleaded that workman was never its employee and even not engaged by it.

Respondent No.2 in its separate written statement pleaded that workman was engaged by respondent No.2 who retrenched his services on partial completion of work after paying him Rs.9315/- in lieu of notice period and retrenchment compensation. That work is not perennial in nature. That the retrenchment is legal.

On the other hand Sh. Pankaj Kumar and Sh. H.R. Sharma, appeared on behalf of respondent No.1 and 2 and filed their affidavits reiterating the stand taken up in the respective written statements.

I have heard Sh. M.S. Gorsi, counsel for the workman, Sh. V.P. Singh, counsel for respondent No.1 and Sh. H.R. Sharma for respondent No.2.

It was argued by Mr. M.S. Gorsi, learned counsel for the workman that there is an unrebutted statement of the workman to the effect that persons junior to the workman were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment as well the management employed several persons after the retrenchment and therefore the retrenchment of the workman is illegal.

I have considered the contention of the learned

counsel.

The workman has deposed in his affidavit that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also employed more persons after his retrenchment. But he did not name the persons who were junior to him and were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment. Again he did not name the persons who were employed by the management after retrenchment. The workman was required to prove the said facts by leading cogent evidence in order to claim the relief and his bare statement that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management employed more persons after his retrenchment do not carry any weight in the absence of any documentary and other convincing evidence on the file. Therefore it cannot be said that the persons junior to the workman were retained in service or more persons were employed by the management after his retrenchment and there is any violation of Section 25G and 25H of the Act. Rather the statement of Sh. H.R. Sharma shows that workman was paid due compensation as required under Section 25F of the Act at the time of effecting the retrenchment and the same was to be effected on account of partial completion of the work.

In result, it is held that action of the respondent No.2 in terminating the services of the workman is legal and the workman is not entitled to any relief and the reference is answered against him. Let hard and soft copy of the award be sent to the Central Government for further necessary action.

The workman has deposed in his affidavit that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also employed more persons after his retrenchment. But he did not name the persons who were junior to him and were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment. Again he did not name the persons who were employed by the management after retrenchment. The workman was required to prove the said facts by leading cogent evidence in order to claim the relief and his bare statement that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management employed more persons after his retrenchment do not carry any weight in the absence of any documentary and other convincing evidence on the file. Therefore it cannot be said that the persons junior to the workman were retained in service or more persons were employed by the management after his retrenchment and there is any violation of Section 25G and 25H of the Act. Rather the statement of Sh. H.R. Sharma shows that workman was paid due compensation as required under Section 25F of the Act at the time of effecting the retrenchment and the same was to be effected on account of partial completion of the work.

In result, it is held that action of the respondent No.2 in terminating the services of the workman is legal and the workman is not entitled to any relief and the reference is answered against him. Let hard and soft copy of the award be sent to the Central Government for further necessary action.

....Applicant

Versus

The workman has deposed in his affidavit that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also employed more persons after his retrenchment. But he did not name the persons who were junior to him and were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment. Again he did not name the persons who were employed by the management after retrenchment. The workman was required to prove the said facts by leading cogent evidence in order to claim the relief and his bare statement that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management employed more persons after his retrenchment do not carry any weight in the absence of any documentary and other convincing evidence on the file. Therefore it cannot be said that the persons junior to the workman were retained in service or more persons were employed by the management after his retrenchment and there is any violation of Section 25G and 25H of the Act. Rather the statement of Sh. H.R. Sharma shows that workman was paid due compensation as required under Section 25F of the Act at the time of effecting the retrenchment and the same was to be effected on account of partial completion of the work.

Vide Order No.L-42012/32/2010-IR(DU), dated 12.5.2010 the Central Government in exercise of the powers conferred by Clause (d) of Sub-Section (1) and Sub-Section 2(A) of Section 10 of Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (in short Act) has referred the following industrial dispute for adjudication to this Tribunal :

"Whether the action of the management of M/s. AKS Engineers & Contractors, a sub contractor of M/s Italian Thai Development Public Co. Ltd. of NTPC, Kol dam in terminating the services of Sh. Hem Raj w.e.f. 13/8/2008 is legal and justified? If not, what relief the workman is entitled to?"

In response to the notice, the workman submitted statement of claim pleading that respondent No.1 is the principal employer who is engaged for the construction of 'Kol Dam Hydro Electric Power Project' at Harmoda and has given contract to respondent No. 2 who in turn engaged respondent No.3 as its sub-contractor. The workman was engaged by respondent No.3 on 27.7.2004 where he worked till 14.8.2008 when his services were retrenched.

Workman has challenged the retrenchment on the ground that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also appointed large number of workers on the project after his retrenchment. It is also pleaded that the management did not take permission from the appropriate Government for effecting the retrenchment and as such the retrenchment is illegal and he is deemed to be in service.

The claim was contested by the NTPC i.e. respondent No.1 as well as by the Italian Thai Development Co. Ltd. who has been impleaded as respondent No. 2, whereas M/s AKS Engineers and Contractors who is impleaded as respondent No. 3 was proceeded against ex parte.

Respondent No. 1 filed written statement controverting the averments and pleaded that workman was never its employee and even not engaged by it.

Respondent No. 2 in its separate written statement pleaded that workman was engaged by respondent No. 3 who retrenched his services on partial completion of work after paying him Rs.10,050/- in lieu of notice period and retrenchment compensation. That work is not perennial in nature. That the retrenchment is legal.

On the other hand Sh. Pankaj Kumar and Sh. H.R. Sharma, appeared on behalf of respondent No.1 and 2 and filed their affidavits reiterating the stand taken up in the respective written statements.

I have heard Sh. M.S. Gorsi, counsel for the workman, Sh. V.P. Singh, counsel for respondent No.1 and Sh. H.R. Sharma for respondent No. 2.

It was argued by Mr. M.S. Gorsi, learned counsel for the workman that there is an unrebutted statement of the workman to the effect that persons junior to the workman were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment as well the management employed several persons after the retrenchment and therefore the retrenchment of the workman is illegal.

I have considered the contention of the learned

counsel.

Versus

The workman has deposed in his affidavit that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also employed more persons after his retrenchment. But he did not name the persons who were junior to him and were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment. Again he did not name the persons who were employed by the management after retrenchment. The workman was required to prove the said facts by leading cogent evidence in order to claim the relief and his bare statement that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management employed more persons after his retrenchment do not carry any weight in the absence of any documentary and other convincing evidence on the file. Therefore it cannot be said that the persons junior to the workman were retained in service or more persons were employed by the management after his retrenchment and there is any violation of Section 25G and 25H of the Act. Rather the statement of Sh. H.R. Sharma shows that workman was paid due compensation as required under Section 25F of the Act at the time of effecting the retrenchment and the same was to be effected on account of partial completion of the work.

In result, it is held that action of the respondent No.2 in terminating the services of the workman is legal and the workman is not entitled to any relief and the reference is answered against him. Let hard and soft copy of the award be sent to the Central Government for further necessary action.

"Whether the action of the management of M/s. AKS Engineers & Contractors, a sub contractor of M/s. Italian Thai Development Public Co. Ltd. of NTPC, Kol dam in terminating the services of Sh. Ravinder Kumar w.e.f. 31/7/2008 is legal and justified? If not, what relief the workman is entitled to?"

In response to the notice, the workman submitted statement of claim pleading that respondent No.1 is the principal employer who is engaged for the construction of 'Kol Dam Hydro Electric Power Project' at Harmoda and has given contract to respondent No.2 who in turn engaged respondent No.3 as its sub-contractor. The workman was engaged by respondent No.3 on 24.8.2004 where he worked till 1.8.2008 when his services were retrenched.

Workman has challenged the retrenchment on the ground that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also appointed large number of workers on the project after his retrenchment. It is also pleaded that the management did not take permission from the appropriate Government for effecting the retrenchment and as such the retrenchment is illegal and he is deemed to be in service.

The claim was contested by the NTPC i.e. respondent No.1 as well as by the Italian Thai Development Co. Ltd. who has been impleaded as respondent No.3; whereas M/s. AKS Engineers and Contractors who is impleaded as respondent No.2 was proceeded against ex parte.

I have heard Sh. M.S. Gorsi, counsel for the workman, Sh. V.P. Singh, counsel for respondent No.1 and Sh. H.R. Sharma for respondent No.2.

Gorsi, learned counsel for the workman that there is an unrebutted statement of the workman to the effect that persons junior to the workman were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment as well the management employed several persons after the retrenchment and therefore the retrenchment of the workman is illegal.

I have considered the contention of the learned

It may be added that workman has pleaded the above said facts in his statement of claim but no evidence has been led whatsoever on the file to establish that the persons junior to the workman were retained by respondent No.3 at the time of retrenchment; or some other persons were also employed on the project after the termination of the services of the workman. There is no dispute that the workman was paid retrenchment compensation as required under Section 25F of the Act. Being so, the retrenchment cannot be termed as illegal and void.

In result, it is held that the action of respondent No.3 in terminating the services of the workman is legal and the workman is not entitled to any relief and the reference is accordingly answered against the workman.

Passed on 21.8.2014

Vide Order No.L-42012/215/2010-IR(DU), dated 9.3.2011 the Central Government in exercise of the powers conferred by Clause (d) of Sub-Section (1) and Sub-Section 2(A) of Section 10 of Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (in short Act) has referred the following industrial dispute for adjudication to this Tribunal.

"Whether the action of the management of M/s. UR Infrastructure Co. Pvt. Ltd. sub contractor of M/s. Italian Thai Development Public Ltd., a contractor of M/s. NTPC Ltd. in retrenchment of the services of Sh. Kuldeep Chand S/o Roop Lal w.e.f. 3/9/2008 without following the principle of Last come first go is legal and justified? What relief the workman is entitled to?"

In response to the notice, the workman submitted statement of claim pleading that respondent No.3 is the principal employer who is engaged for the construction of 'Kol Dam Hydro Electric Power Project' at Harmoda and has given contract to respondent No.2 who in turn engaged respondent No.1 as its sub-contractor. The workman was engaged by respondent No.1 on 3.1.2005 where he worked till 3.9.2008 when his services were retrenched.

Workman has challenged the retrenchment on the ground that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also appointed large number of workers on the project after his retrenchment. It is also pleaded that the management did not take permission from the appropriate Government for effecting the retrenchment and as such the retrenchment is illegal and he is deemed to be in service.

The claim was contested by the NTPC i.e. respondent No.3 as well as by the Italian Thai Development Co. Ltd. who have been impleaded as respondent No.2; whereas M/s. U.R. Infrastructures Company Private Ltd., who is impleaded as respondent No.1 was proceeded against ex parte.

Respondent No.3 filed written statement controverting the averments and pleaded that workman was never its employee and even not engaged by it.

Respondent No.2 in its separate written statement pleaded that workman was engaged by respondent No.1 who retrenched his services on partial completion of work after paying him Rs.11,340/- in lieu of notice period and In support of its case the workman has appeared in witness box and filed his affidavit reiterating the case as set out in the claim petition.

On the other hand Sh. Pankaj Kumar and Sh. H.R. Sharma, appeared on behalf of respondent No.3 and 2 and filed their affidavits reiterating the stand taken up in the respective written statements.

I have heard Sh. M.S. Gorsi, counsel for the workman, Sh. V.P. Singh, counsel for respondent No.3 and Sh. H.R. Sharma for respondent No.2.

It was argued by Mr. M.S. Gorsi, learned counsel for the workman that there is an unrebutted statement of the workman to the effect that persons junior to the workman were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment as well the management employed several persons after the retrenchment and therefore the retrenchment of the workman is illegal.

I have considered the contention of the learned

counsel.

The workman has deposed in his affidavit that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also employed more persons after his retrenchment. But he did not name the persons who were junior to him and were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment. Again he did not name the persons who were employed by the management after retrenchment. The workman was required to prove the said facts by leading cogent evidence in order to claim the relief and his bare statement that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management employed more persons after his retrenchment do not carry any weight in the absence of any documentary and other convincing evidence on the file. Therefore it cannot be said that the persons junior to the workman were retained in service or more persons were employed by the management after his retrenchment and there is any violation of Section 25G and 25H of the Act. Rather the statement of Sh. H.R. Sharma shows that workman was paid due compensation as required under Section 25F of the Act at the time of effecting the retrenchment and the same was to be effected on account of partial completion of the work.

In result, it is held that action of the respondent No.2 in terminating the services of the workman is legal and the workman is not entitled to any relief and the reference is answered against him. Let hard and soft copy of the award be sent to the Central Government for further necessary action.

In response to the notice, the workman submitted statement of claim pleading that respondent No.1 is the principal employer who is engaged for the construction of 'Kol Dam Hydro Electric Power Project' at Harmoda and has given contract to respondent No.2 who in turn engaged respondent No.3 as its sub-contractor. The workman was engaged by respondent No.3 on 19.8.2004 where he worked till 31.7.2008 when his services were retrenched.

Workman has challenged the retrenchment on the ground that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also appointed large number of workers on the project after his retrenchment. It is also pleaded that the management did not take permission from the appropriate Government for effecting the retrenchment and as such the retrenchment is illegal and he is deemed to be in service.

The claim was contested by the NTPC i.e. respondent No.2 as well as by the Italian Thai Development Co. Ltd. who have been impleaded as respondent No.2; whereas M/s. AKS Engineers and Contractors who is impleaded as respondent No.3 was proceeded against ex parte.

Respondent No.1 filed written statement controverting the averments and pleaded that workman was never its employee and even not engaged by it.

Respondent No.2 in its separate written statement pleaded that workman was engaged by respondent No.3 who retrenched his services on partial completion of work after paying him Rs.11,340/- in lieu of notice period and In support of its case the workman has appeared in witness box and filed his affidavit reiterating the case as set out in the claim petition.

On the other hand Sh. Pankaj Kumar and Sh. H.R. Sharma, appeared on behalf of respondent No.1 and 2 and filed their affidavits reiterating the stand taken up in the respective written statements.

I have heard Sh. M.S. Gorsi, counsel for the workman, Sh. V.P. Singh, counsel for respondent No.1 and Sh. H.R. Sharma for respondent No.2.

It was argued by Mr. M.S. Gorsi, learned counsel for the workman that there is an unrebutted statement of the workman to the effect that persons junior to the workman were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment as well the management employed several persons after the retrenchment and therefore the retrenchment of the workman is illegal.

I have considered the contention of the learned

counsel.

The workman has deposed in his affidavit that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also employed more persons after his retrenchment. But he did not name the persons who were junior to him and were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment. Again he did not name the persons who were employed by the management after retrenchment. The workman was required to prove the said facts by leading cogent evidence in order to claim the relief and his bare statement that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management employed more persons after his retrenchment do not carry any weight in the absence of any documentary and other convincing evidence on the file. Therefore it cannot be said that the persons junior to the workman were retained in service or more persons were employed by the management after his retrenchment and there is any violation of Section 25G and 25H of the Act. Rather the statement of Sh. H.R. Sharma shows that workman was paid due compensation as required under Section 25F of the Act at the time of effecting the retrenchment and the same was to be effected on account of partial completion of the work.

In result, it is held that action of the respondent No.2 in terminating the services of the workman is legal and the workman is not entitled to any relief and the reference is answered against him. Let hard and soft copy of the award be sent to the Central Government for further necessary action.

I have heard Sh. M.S. Gorsi, counsel for the workman, Sh. V.P. Singh, counsel for respondent No.1 and Sh. H.R. Sharma for respondent No.2.

It was argued by Mr. M.S. Gorsi, learned counsel for the workman that there is an unrebutted statement of the workman to the effect that persons junior to the workman were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment as well the management employed several persons after the retrenchment and therefore the retrenchment of the workman is illegal.

I have considered the contention of the learned

counsel.

The workman has deposed in his affidavit that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management also employed more persons after his retrenchment. But he did not name the persons who were junior to him and were retained in service at the time of his retrenchment. Again he did not name the persons who were employed by the management after retrenchment. The workman was required to prove the said facts by leading cogent evidence in order to claim the relief and his bare statement that the persons junior to him were retained in service and the management employed more persons after his retrenchment do not carry any weight in the absence of any documentary and other convincing evidence on the file. Therefore it cannot be said that the persons junior to the workman were retained in service or more persons were employed by the management after his retrenchment and there is any violation of Section 25G and 25H of the Act. Rather the statement of Sh. H.R. Sharma shows that workman was paid due compensation as required under Section 25F of the Act at the time of effecting the retrenchment and the same was to be effected on account of partial completion of the work.

In result, it is held that action of the respondent No.2 in terminating the services of the workman is legal and the workman is not entitled to any relief and the reference is answered against him. Let hard and soft copy of the award be sent to the Central Government for further necessary action.

In result, it is held that action of the respondent No.2 in terminating the services of the workman is legal and the workman is not entitled to any relief and the reference is answered against him. Let hard and soft copy of the award be sent to the Central Government for further necessary action.

APPEARANCES :

On behalf of the workman/Union : Mr. N. M. Kumar,

Ld.Advocate

On behalf of the Management : Mr. D. K. Verma,

Ld.Advocate

State : Jharkhand Industry : Coal

Dated, Dhanbad, the 3rd Sept, 2014 The case of workman Sadhu Saran Prasad as sponsored by the Jharkhand Colliery Mazdoor Union is that he was employed as the Carpenter, and was given the charge to get all repairs of Carpentry properly, and to report daily it to the Sr.Oversear (Civil) as per the Office Order No. BCCL/TAF-21/62024 dt.30.03.1984. He was complying the office order. Senior Overseer (Civil) T.A. Department, Koyla Bhawan directed him to deposit the carpenter tools store materials in the office store by August, 25, 1984 positively. Accordingly the workman complied the order. He has been performing as the Supervisor (Civil) since 1984 without payment of any remuneration for it. The post of work Supervisor (Civil) has been vacant since prior to the death of Late K.D Singh who was promoted as the General Supervisor from the Work Supervisor(Civil).The workman also drew the attention of the Authorities to payment of the scale of supervisor for the work being done by him accordingly. The Union had already demanded for regularization of the workman as the Work Supervisor (Civil)Grade-B (Tech.Sup.) from 30.03.1984,but the Management unjustifiably transferred him to Bhuli Town Administration where on resumption of duty w.e.f.

6982 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]

3.10.2005 as per the Office Order dt. 6/7.10.2005, he was allotted to work as a clerk. Alleging violation of Sec, 9A and 25 B of the Industrial despite Act, 1947, his continuous service on that post from 1984 to 2005, the Management instead of regularizing the workman in the post of Work Supervisor (Civil) has demoted him to the post of Carpenter as per the Office Order dt.30/1.10.2005 of the Personnel Manager (Co-ordination).The workman has been victimized for his active trade Union activities for workers/ employees. The Management or their authorities do not follow the standing orders and the I.D.Act, 1947; rather they have adopted unfair Labour practice. The action of the Management for denial to his regularization as Supervisor T & S Grade 'B' is unjustified and illegal. So the workman is entitled to the differences of wages from 31.3.1984 till the date of work Supervisor with proper relief. post. Therefore, the workman was granted the aforesaid SLU as noted above. There is no provision for promotion of a Carpenter to the post of Supervisor according to the Cadre Scheme of the Carpenter.The sponsoring Union raised the Industrial Dispute in contravention of the Cadre Scheme as formulated by JBCCI. So the demand of the Union for regularization of the workman as Supervisor in T & C Gr. B is neither legal nor justified.

5. The Management in its rejoinder has categorically denied the allegations of the Union/workman as incorrect, further alleging that workman was never authorized by the Competent Authority to work as a Supervisor. Moreover, the workman has no appropriate qualification for working as a Supervisor (Civil).The transfer of an employee does not attract/apply to the Sec. 9 A of the I.D.Act.As such the workman is not entitled to any relief.

FINDING WITH THE REASONS

3. The Union concerned in its rejoinder has specifically denied the allegations of the O.P./Management, further stating that the I.I.No.37 is not applicable to the case of the workman as a supervisor in Technical & Supervisory Grade B. It is not a case of promotion rather that of proper designation Scale of pay. He is a permanent workman of BCCL, as his initial designation was of a Carpenter. The Management has availed of the benefits of his services as a Supervisor, neither the corresponding designation can be denied nor scale of pay can be equated with Services Linked Upgradation (SLU).Even on the basis of the principle of equal pay for equal work, a workman discharging similar duties as those in regular employment is entitled to regular pay and other emoluments.

4. Whereas challenging the maintainability of the reference in law or in fact, the contra case of the O.P./ Management with categorical denials is that M/s BCCL being a Government Company registered under the Companies Act is a state in the terms of Art.12 of the Constitution of India. All the employment in the Company is public, and is based on the procedure as per the constitution and laws of the Company. There is a Cadre Scheme (E & M), Personnel Carpenter Helper to Pattern Maker formulated by JBCCI as per the Constitutional mandate and I.I. No.37 dt.25.9.1984.The workman is not entitled for promotion to the post of Supervisorship. The workman who is permanent employee of M/s BCCL is the carpenter by designation. As per the provision of NCWA, he was given Service-Linked -Upgradation (SLU) and placed in Cat.VI w.e.f. 1.7.1990 and again was given SLU w.e.f. 1.1.1999 and placed in T & S Gr.C.All promotions from Carpenter helper to Pattern Maker Cat. is effected as per the Cadre Scheme on the recommendation of Departmental Promotion Committee (DPC) duly constituted by the Cadre Controlling Authority subject vacancy as per the Man power Budget. The workman was never recommended by the D.P.C. for promotion is in higher 6. In the instant Reference, two witnesses, namely, WWI Shyam Sundar Sharma and WW2 Sadhu Saran Prasad the workman himself, on behalf of the Union concerned and MWI Amit Bhusan, Sr.Manager (Pers.) for the Management have been produced and examined respectively.

7. On perusal of the pleadings documents relied upon and the evidences adduced on behalf of the both the parties, it appears no dispute the designation of the workman Sadhu Saran Prasad is all along that of the Carpenter and factually the workman was never promoted to the post of Pattern Maker. In view of the aforesaid status of the workman with various other facts evolves the pertinent issue for adjudication as such:

Whether the workman's claim for his regularization

as Supervisor T & S (Gr.B) is justified.

Sr. Counsel S.Paul, the Ld.Adv. for the workman submits that the Management has admitted the working of the workman as T & S Gr.B as per the office order dt.17.1.2013 (Ext.W.1/7). The Management misinterprets it that it is Technical Supervisor, rather in order to declare Supervisor, there is no need to be Technical and it is also admitted by the Management that Mr.K.D.Singh and Mr. S.N. Singh had been promoted as Supervisor; as the post of Supervisor requires no technical as also admitted by the Management witness (MWI).Mr. Paul further submits the designation of the workman depends upon the nature of job he performed; that the Management has given the workman the grade but no designation. In such situation Implementation Instruction (I.I.No.37) related Cadre Scheme of E & M Personnel has no application in the reference, as it is not the demand for the promotion of Supervisor T & S, rather the workman was given the job of supervisor as per the Office Order dt.30.3.1984 of Shri Guru Nam Singh, the Engineer (Civil), (Ext.W.1 = W.1/1) and the[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6983 workman as per the letter of Mr. J.N.P. Singh, Sr. Oversear (Civil)dt.24.8.1984 was directed to deposit the Store materials as per the list. According to Mr. Paul, Service Linked Upgradation was given to the workman so SLU/ SLP can not be equated with the post of Supervisor; since a workman officiating higher Grade rendering continuous service demands for classification is not a demand for promotion and not beyond the jurisdiction of the Tribunal over the Industrial Dispute as held by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of workmen H.L Ltd. Vs Hindustan Lever Ltd. reported in AIR: 1984(SC) 1683 (CB).Regularization means as submitted by Mr. Paul a corrective procedure to regularize some methodological irregularity as held by Hon'ble Patna High Court in the case of Bihar Forest & Veg.Dept, Corp.Vs.State of Bihar, 1991 PLJR 377.Here the workman has been given the benefit of Service Linked Promotion in the Technical & Supervisory, Grade -C (Previous Grade/Cat)) and thereafter to T & S ,Grade B w.e.f. 01.01.2007 as per the office order dt.17.01.2013 (Ext.W.1/7), so he has to be regularized. Relying upon the case of workmen Vs. Bhurkunda Colliery of Central Coalfields, reported in 2006 SCC (L & S) 530 (DB) Mr. Paul submits as held therein, that in case of temporary or adhoc appointment for long, the Court presumes that there is a regular need for the services on a regular post and accordingly considers regularization, as 39 workmen in the same Colliery were regularized by the respondent employer.

evident from his all aforesaid documents. His claim for it is not only against the Cadre Scheme but also against the nomenclature of the job. None of the rulings as cited by Mr. Paul Ld.Counsel for the workman appears to be applicable to the present case as it stands before me.

In result, it is, in the terms of the reference, hereby responded and accordingly awarded that the action of the Management of K.N.T.A. of M/s BCCL in denying regularization as Supervisor T & S Grade 'B' to Shri Sadhu Saran Prasad, Carpenter is quite justified and legal. Hence, the workman is not entitled to any relief.

INDUSTRIAL TRIBUNAL (NO. 2), AT DHANBAD

8. Whereas vehemently opposing to the aforesaid argument of Mr.Paul,Mr.D.K.Verma,Learned Counsel for the O.P./Management has contended that admittedly the workman had been all along working as a Carpenter, and the Cadre Scheme of E & M Personnel provides for Carpenter Helper to Pattern Maker (Grade I) as last as per I.I.No.37 dt.25.9.1984 (Ext.M.1);so there was no promotional avenue in the Cadre Scheme, the Management has given the workman the SLP/SLI Grade/Category for T. & S B w.e.f. 01.01.2007. According to the Job Nomenclature, as Mr.Verma has argued the posts of the Engineer the Senior Overseer and the Overseer under Grades A.B and C respectively come, and there is no post of any Supervisor as claimed by the workman,; thus his claim or regularization as Supervisor T & S B is legally unsustainable.

REFERENCE NO. 98 OF 2013.

On deep consideration of the materials available on the case record, I find that the entire claim of the workman for classification by way of regularization as Supervisor T & S Gr.B is based on the office order dt.30.03.1984 (Extt.W.1 = W 1/1 being the same) which is nothing except a direction to look after the proper working of other Carpenter only for 4 months 25 days. This is not any authorization to work as Supervisor as self assumed by the workmen. The workman has all along been working as a Carpenter as PARTIES : The Vice President,

Union before the A.L.C.(C), Dhanbad for his regularization,

the Management admitted in their comments that the

Society had done afforestation welfare activities at different places around the colliery area for purpose of

improving the environment condition. The Management also accepted the engagement of the workman as casual

unskilled worker for performance of the duties incidental

to afforestation work such as digging of earth, planting of scuplings, watering and putting enclosures on the sapling

etc. the Workmen worked for ore than 240 days kms. a year and years together continuously till his illegal

stoppage for work. His termination was without any notice.

Further alleged on behalf of the workman that the

Management got sanctioned the post the workman was working on, but the Asstt.Manager (RD)Sunil Kumar

Pandey got his brother-in-law employed on that post, and

the was threatened of dire consequences and assured of the consideration for his regularization. The other workers

of the Management have been regularized, and be made permanent employees of TISCO Ltd. such as

S/Shri Ashok Mishra, Brij Kishor Singh, Sujan Mahato,

Ram Kishun etc, in other jobs. But the workman has been deprived of his legitimate demand for regularization. In

course of services on the fracture of his leg, the workman had got free treatment at the Tata Central Hospital,

Jamadoba as the other employee. Only for the period of hospitaisation, he remained asbent, after which he joined

his duty till termination of his service.The workman as

victimized due to the Trade Union activity. The action of the Management is illegal and unjustified. The workman

is entitled to reinstatement/regularization with full back wages.

The Union Representative in the rejoinder for the workman has specifically denied all the allegations of the

O.P./Management, further alleging that the Tata Steel Rural

Development Society is the Regd. one of Organizations, and a part and parcel of the TISCO. It carries on and

promotes the activities of rural economy and welfare in Coal Mines and Steel Plants. It functions in the whole

Tata's Organization.

3. Whereas the contra pleaded case of the O.P./

Management with categorical denials is that the reference is legally unmaintenable. The Tata Steel Rural Development

Society (TSRDS) is a Registered Organization as No. 438/

78-79 of March 1979 under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 with the main object to undertake, carry on and

promote the actives of rural economy and Welfare in the villages situated in Industrial are like coal, Mines and Steel

Plants. The Society is an independent and autonomous

institution, but not an Industry for any profit. It gets fund from the subscriptions from its members who are four kinds; patrons, members, Coprporate bodies and honourry.The Society from time through the Managing

Committee duly elected by its members as per the rules and bye-laws of it. The Committee runs the institution as a voluntary organizations carry on welfare activities of the villages for no profit. The Society maintains its own accounts under the audit statutorily every year. In course of welfare activities of the Society for the seasonal a

forestation works at different villages adjacent to Industrial Areas of Coal Mines with a view to improve environmental condition of the villages during the years 1990, 1991 and 1992 Daily rated, Casual Workers were engaged for digging of earth, planting of saplings and putting enclosures around the saplings for their safety in its growing period

whenever required. The workman Shyam Sundar Singh was accordingly engaged for the aforesaid work during the said years of the plantation season, he was paid his wages at prevalent rate slightly higher than the prescribed rate under Minimum Wages Act for agricultural work.

Since thereafter the Society had not got sufficient fund from its subscription of its members and others so it

could not undertake welfare activities after 1993 in any industrial Area situated within the State of Bihar. The Society could not force to undertake the seasonal works and to provide Daily Rated/ casual workers the afforesting work at their discretion. The Society is a Registered Organization under the aforesaid Societies Registration

Act and it is not an Industry for any profit, so the Central Government is not appropriate Authority to refer any Industrial Dispute because no Industrial Dispute exists at all. The workman was never engaged as a permanent worker on any permanent post. His engagement was on Daily Rated basis for a temporary period in connection

with the aforesaid jobs purely dependent upon the season of rain and growing of scapplings. So the workman can neither claim for regular employment nor can have claim any grievance against the management for not getting a job.

The Management in its rejoinder has categorically denied all the allegations of the workman as false, baseless and imaginary. In view of the nature of the case of the Management, the violation of provisions of Industrial Dispute Act in terminating the workman is wrong and baseless. Further alleged on behalf of the Management that M/s TISCO has its own recruitment policy according to which it gives preference to the workmen belonging to local villages adjacent to its establishment. In that regard, some workers got their employment on the basis of selection, but not as the workmen of the Societies. The workman has not right to demand for regularization of his6988 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)] service under the Management of the Society or M/s TISCO Ltd. So far as the Medical treatment of the workman at the Hospital of Tisco, he had got for his injury, is concerned, as the Society is the Voluntary Organization it requests different parties/Companies to render medical assistance as well as to pay subscriptions for undertakings welfare activities. At the request of the Society, the workman has got medical treatment for his injury during the period of his engagement as a Casual worker of the Society. As such the workman is not entitled any relief.

moreover, no casual worker in lack of employer-employee relationship can be regularized.

FINDING WITH REASONS

4. In the instant reference,WW1 Shyam Sunder Singh now as the Teacher on behalf of the workman and MW1 Sinjan Kumar Das the Supervisor for the Management have been produced and examined respectively. On meticulously going through the pleaded evidences of both the parties, the indisputable fact appears to be that workman Shyam Sunder Singh was a casual worker engaged by the Management of Tata Steel Rural Development Society.

Mr.Chandrika Pd.,Learned Advocate cum the Union representative for the workman had worked under the Management from 1991 to 1993 during which for more than 240 days in a year, but on his representation for regularization of his service (Ext.W.7), he was stopped by the Management from the working; thereafter,the Management had engaged Ashok Mishra, broher-in-law of Sri Sunil Kumar Pandey, Manager, TSRDS, and some workmen Ashok Mishra, Brij Kishro Singh, Sujan Mahato others were regularized by the Management in their services, though he (workman) had got free medical treatment from the hospital of the Management at Jamadoba for his leg fractured in course of his service as the Doctors' prescription (Ext. W4 & 4/1). The statement of the workman(WW1) reveals that as per his two application dated 9.10.84 and 98.1984 (Ext.W.1 & 2 respectively), he had applied for sanction of job and labourers, he had got the order dt. 29.7.1984 from the Management (Ext.W.3) about pits. The workman had submitted his bill (for July 1986 - Ext.W.6) to the management for his work. There is also the site report dt.6.10.88 (Daily Inspection Programme in Social Forestry for a week (Ext W.6)soothe workman's claim for regularization is jsutified as urged by his aforesaid Learned Counsel.

5. Just contrary to it Mr.D.K.Verma, Ld.Counsel for the O.P./Management has contended that the RSRDS is one NGO Registered under the Society Registration Act as per its Memorandum (Ext.M.1) and its works for welfare, but not for any profit; the workman was a casual worker in plantation job which was quite seasonal. This registered Society has no connection with the TISCO. The Registered Society has no authority to recommend to the latter for regularization of any such seasonal casual worker;

6. In view of the aforesaid materials available on the case record, I find that the Management of TSRDS being a Registered Society Registration Act is non- governmental Organisations, it is a charity or an Association independent of the management of Tisco and its business. The Registered Society does not appear to be for any business or industry, rather it carries on the social welfare activities such as forestation in the industrial area. It is an acknowledged fact the registered Society used to casually engage casual labourers like the present workman in plantation of sapling only in rainy season. So the job of the workman was purely temporary nature. The argument of Mr. Verma, Learned counsel for the O.P./management appears to be quite reasonable as that of Mr.Prasad, Learned Counsel for the Union seems meritless absolutely.

Under these crcumstancces,it is hereby awarded that no question arises as to the action of the Management of TSRDS in stopping the employment of Shri Shyam Sunder Singh, who has no proof of his working for a longer period of time which appears to be impossible in the nature of his purely temporary engagement for plantation. Hence the workman is not entitled to any relief. The alleged Industrial dispute devoid of the vital factor of "industry" is not at all an industrial dispute.

Mumbai, dated the 25th August, 2014

AWARD

The Government of India, Ministry of Labour & Employment by its Order No.L-41012/56/2006-IR (B-I), dated 27.02.2007 in exercise of the powers conferred by clause (d) of sub-section (1) and sub-section 2 (A) of Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 have referred the following industrial dispute to this Tribunal for adjudication:

"Whether the action of the management of Western Railway, Administration, Mumbai Division, Mumbai in not granting the upgradaton benefits to Ms. Meena More, Head Clerk is justified? If not, what relief Ms. Meena More, Head Clerk is entitled to?"

2. After receipt of the reference, notices were issued to both the parties. In response to the notice, second party union filed statement of claim at Ex-8. According to the second party union, workman Ms. Meena More was initially appointed as a Junior Clerk w.e.f. 14/6/1983. She was promoted as Sr. Clerk w.e.f. 24/12/1983. She was further promoted as Head Clerk w.e.f. 1/1/1984. The next promotion was to the post of Chief Clerk/Office Superintendent- II in the scale of Rs.5,500-9000. However instead of promoting her, the management promoted Ms. Neelam R. Karnik who was immediate junior to the workman in general category. She was promoted as a Head Clerk in the scale of 425-700/5000-8000 w.e.f. 18/7/1988 and as Chief Clerk/Office Supdt-II in the scale of 1600-2660/5500-9000 w.e.f. 11/10/1996 and further promoted as OS-I in the scale of Rs.6500-10500 from 8/1/2002. The workman was promoted as Head Clerk from 1/1/84 and she was not given any further promotion though she was senior to Ms. Neelam Karnik. Workman, Ms. Meena More had appeared for written test for the post of Chief Clerk/OS-II in the year 1996, 1998, 2000, 2002, 2006 & 2007. She had also appeared for viva in the year 1996, 1998 & 2000 before the Selection Committee. In the year 1998 she had passed the test for Office Superintendent-II with general standard. In spite of it she was not considered for promotion to the post of OS-II and those employees who have passed with relax standard with the taking of notional seniority marks have been considered for the post of OS-II in the scale of Rs.5500- 9000. During last ten years the workman has not been communicated any adverse remarks against her in annual confidential report. The promotion order if any during the period 17/6/1995 to 7/3/2002 as per base grade seniority shall be revised according to the instructions contended in the Railway Board's letter dt. 8/3/2002. Till date no seniority has been revised by the administration. The Railway Administration has promoted several juniors to the workman to the post of Chief Clerk/OS-II and Office Superintendent. Therefore union prays that workman may be promoted to the post of Chief Clerk/ Office Superintendent and as OS-I from the dates her juniors were promoted and the action of the management not granting upgradation benefit to the workman be declared not justified and she be given arrears of wages from the date of her promotion as per the seniority.

3. The first party management resisted the statement of claim vide their written statement Ex-9. According to them the competent authority of Railway after perusing the reference and after taking overall picture with regard to the service record and merit criteria, have decided to promote Ms. Meena More to the post of OS-II in the scale of 5500-9000 (RSRP) w.e.f. 20/09/1998 on pro forma basis on pay Rs.6375/-. They further submitted that select list for promotion to the post of OS-I scale Rs.6500-10500/ 9300-34800 & Rs.4600 GP was issued by the Competent Authority on being found suitable, the name of Ms. Meena More OS-II in the scale of Rs.9300-34800 & Rs.4200 GP is interpolated in the same. In consequence of the said interpolation Ms. Meena More OS-II E/RTI Cell is promoted to the post of OS-I in the scale of Rs.9300-34800 & Rs.4600 GP w.e.f. 9/5/2006 on pro forma basis with reference to the date of promotion of her junior. Ms. Meena More had duly accepted the aforesaid order without any protest and has already assumed charge of the new post w.e.f. 20/02/ 2010. In the circumstances according to the first party the substantial part of the reference has become infructuous. According to them the workman is not entitled to the arrears of wages on account of ground that she has not worked on promotion post and as per clause 228 of the Indian Railway Establishment Manual which provides that in case of pro forma promotion no arrears shall be payable to the concerned workman.

Workman Ms. Meena has accepted the pro forma promotion without any protest and has already assumed her charges. Hence she is estopped from claiming any arrears of wages for promotional posts where she has not actually worked. Therefore the management prays that the reference be dismissed with cost.

4. Following are the issues for my determination. I record my findings thereon for the reasons to follow :

Sr. No. Issues Findings

1. Whether the management of Western Yes.

Railway, Mumbai Division is justified in not granting the upgradation benefits to Ms. Meena More, Head Clerk?

[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6991

2. Whether Ms. Meena More is entitled No.

to the upgradation benefits claimed for?

3. What order? As per

order below.

REASONS

of the reference the management has given the proforma promotions to the workman from the due dates. Therefore the prayer in respect of directing to give promotion has become infructuous. The only point was to be considered in respect of arrears which was decided against the workman.

Issues nos. 1 & 2:-

7. In this respect the fact is required to be taken into account that the workman was not promoted on the due dates due to administrative error and the workman was required to raise industrial dispute. She was unnecessarily required to fight the legal battle for her promotion. Thereafter during pendency of this reference, management realized the administrative error and has given her the two proforma promotions w.e.f. 1998 & 2006. As per Rule 228 and the reasons discussed herein above the workman is not entitled to the arrears in case of proforma promotions. However she is very well entitled to the cost of the proceeding. Thus to meet the end of justice I think it proper to award cost of Rs.25,000/- to the workman. Accordingly I dispose of this reference as dismissed.

ORDER

5. Both these issues are in respect of the benefit for the arrears from the due date of promotion. Therefore both these issues are discussed and decided simultaneously. In this respect the fact is not disputed that due to administrative error workman Ms. Meena More was not promoted to the post of Chief Clerk/Officer Superintendent-II w.e.f. 20/09/1998. The fact is also not disputed that her further promotion was due as OS-I in the pay scale of 9300-34800 + GP Rs.4600/- from 9/5/ 2006. The fact is also not disputed that after this reference, in the year 2010 the management realized the mistake and they have given proforma promotion to the workman from the due date without any arrears. According to the management the workman is not entitled to the arrears as Rule 228 of Indian Railway Establishment Manual prescribes that in case promotion is not given to any employee due to administrative error, proforma promotion can be given to him from the due date. In such cases the workman is not entitled to the arrears. Secondly the ld. adv. for the first party submitted that the workman is estopped from claiming the arrears as she has accepted the proforma promotions from the year 2010 without any protest. The ld. adv. for the first party submitted that above referred Rule 228 is still in existence as the same is not set aside by any Court. After perusing the language of this Rule 228 it is clear that due to administrative errors if a staff is overlooked for promotion to higher grade, he can be given proforma promotion from the due date. However he is not entitled to the arrears on that account as he did not actually shoulder the duties and responsibilities of the higher post. Furthermore though the reference was pending the workman has accepted the promotion unconditionally without any protest.

6. In the circumstances I hold that though the workman was entitled to the promotion from the due dates, as she had not worked on the promotional post, she is not entitled to the arrears claimed in this reference. Though the management was not justified in giving her promotion on the due dates, the action of the management refusing to pay arrears is quite justified. Accordingly I hold that the management was justified in not giving the upgradation benefits / arrears of upgradation to the workman. Accordingly I decide this issue no.1 in the affirmative. Consequently I hold that the workman is not entitled to the upgradation benefits claimed for. Accordingly I decide this issue no.2 in the negative. In this respect the fact is not disputed that during pendency The reference is disposed of with cost of Rs.25,000/- payable by the management to the workman.

The following preliminary objections (the "PO") goes to the root of the matter in dispute and without prejudice to each of the POs; the alleged Claim (though no claim petition has been filed) is liable to be dismissed on each of the grounds set out hereinafter:

NO DISPUTE AWARD

The Central Government in the Ministry of Labour vide notification No L-12012/88/2011-IR(B-I)) dated 30.11.2011 referred the following industrial Dispute to this tribunal for adjudication :-

"Whether the action of the management of M/s. HDFC Bank Ltd. in terminating the services of Sh. Vikash Lahariya is legal and justified? To What relief the workman is entitled?"

On 19.12.2011 reference was received in this tribunal. Which was register as I.D No. 115/11 and claimant was called upon to file claim statement with in fifteen days from date of service of notice. Which was required to be accompanied with relevant documents and list of witnesses.

After service of notice workman/claimant Sh. Vikash Lahariya not filed claim statement but management in response to reference filed response wherein it mentioned as follows:-

I. The Workman has filed the present case with malafide intention, which contains false averments and incorrect facts (as explained hereinafter). It is an effort to harass the Management and to put undue pressure on them so that the Management indirectly succumbs to the illegal demand and gratification of the Workman. As such the claim is liable to be dismissed on this ground alone with exemplary cost with regard thereto as per provisions of Section 35 A of CPC, 1908. The Workman who is seeking equitable relief must prove his bonafide intention (viz. a viz. his performance standards) and should first come forward before this Hon'ble court with clean hands.

II. At the outset, the Workman has not come with clean hands before this Hon'ble Court. The alleged relief (though no claim petition has been filed by the Workman) sought by the Workman are not maintainable. Hence, the present claim is liable be dismissed forthwith on the grounds of being malafide, baseless and lacking any bonafide cause of action.

MOST RESPECTFULLY SHOWETH:

At the outset the Management submits that the Workman has not filed any Claim Petition and /or has not supplied any claim petition inter alia substantiating and /or prove his alleged claim before this Hon'ble Court. In any case, the Management denies all allegations as though the same thereof have been specifically set forth and traversed herein, save and except to the extent the content(s) thereof are specifically admitted. The Management thought reserves its right to file detailed and para -wise reply to the claim petition, in case the Workman has filed the same.

III. As per the Fixed Term Contract dated October 25, 2008, the Management reserves the right to terminate the services of the Workman without giving any compensation or notice. The Management had given numerous opportunities to improve his performance, however, as the Workman failed to meet the specified work/task and no sufficient cause was given for his non-performance and further the Workman went on leave from 24.07.2009, which was not approved or sanctioned by the Management and thereafter, the workman never turn back to office as he voluntarily disengaged from his services. The Workman/[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6993 ground of No Cause Of Action arises in favor of the Workman and against the Management and no relief can be granted by this Hon'ble Court but also this Hon'ble Court does not have jurisdiction to entertain the present matter in view of the bar imposed as per Section 10 (4A) of the Act.

PRELIMINARY SUBMISSIONS / FACTS:

      Claimant took the said leaves, without giving any
      prior  intimation  to  the  Management's  senior
      Officers. In view of the Workman's constant default
      vis-à-vis clause 7 of the FTC and his unwarranted
      ceaseure  from  the  services  of  Management,  the
      employment of Workman got terminated in August
      2009. In view thereof, it is apparent that the Workman
      had concealed this material fact from this Hon'ble
      Court and has approached this Hon'ble Court with         1.    The Management is a banking institution having its
      unclean  hands  stating  the  distorted  and  inchoate   registered office at HDFC Bank House, Senapati Bapat
      facts,  with  malafide  intentions  of  misleading  this Marg, Lower Parel (West), Mumbai 400013 and is engaged
      Hon'ble Court. The alleged Claim (though no claim        in the legitimate business of providing banking service
      petition has been filed by the Workman) suffers from     and is having its branch office at B-2, Paschim Vihar, New
      the virus of suggestio falsie and suppressio varie as    Delhi.
      explained in the subsequent pleadings. Hence, the
      present alleged claim (though no claim petition has      2.    That  Mr.  Raja  Saha,  Branch  Manager  and  duly
      been filed by the Workman) is liable to be rejected at   authorised  officer  of  the  Management  has  been  duly
      the  threshold.                                          authorised  to  represent  the  Management  and  to  defend
                                                               the cases filed against the Bank before this Hon'ble Court.
IV.   The  relationship  between  the  Claimant  and  the
                                                               The Authority Letter executed by the HDFC Bank Ltd. in
      Management are governed by the private contract
                                                               favor of Mr. Raja Saha is annexed herewith as ANNEXURE
      between the parties and hence the Claimant cannot
                                                               M - 1.

      section  2A  of  the  Act.  Hence  the  alleged  Claim
                                                               4.    Accordingly, a Fixed Term Contract dated October
      (though  no  claim  petition  has  been  filed  by  the
                                                               25, 2008 (hereinafter referred to as "FTC") was executed

      Act, 1947.  Moreover, the Workman has not made           years with effect from November 1, 2008. Pursuant thereof,
      out  and/or  shown  how  the  said  provisions  are      the  employee  code  i.e.  66061  was  generated  for  the
      attracted  in  the  instant  case. As  in  the  catena  of Workman/Vikas  Lahariya.  The  relevant  terms  of  the
      judgments, it has been held that in order to invoke      contract, which are necessary for the adjudication of the
      the  adjudicatory  machinery  of  the  this  Hon'ble     present matter are reiterated herein under for the ready
      Court, the existence of an industrial disputes on the    reference of the this Hon'ble Court:
      date of invoking the jurisdiction under the Act is a
      basic requirement, the absence of which will take        Clause 4 : "You will be entitled to leave only on completion
      away the jurisdiction of the Labour Court to proceed     of Six months from the Date of Joining as a Contract Sales
      further with the adjudication. Hence the alleged claim   Executive. You will be entitled to Twenty Five working
      (though  no  claim  petition  has  been  filed  by  the  days  annual  leave  in  a  calendar  year  at  a  time  to  be
      Workman) is liable to be dismissed not only on the       determined by the Bank, subject to exigencies of service.
6994 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]

In case you are already on leave of any sort you may be recalled by the Bank if circumstances warrant your immediate return on duty.

Clause 5 : You will not be entitled for any sick leave. Except in exceptional cases leave may be granted at the discretion of the Bank after adjusting the leave of 25 days, but the Bank reserves the right to terminate your employment forthwith and without previous notice in the event of absence of work due to ill health for a periods totaling at least four weeks in consecutive period of twelve calendar months".

Clause 7 : "Notwihtstanding the provisions of clause 11 is hereof in the event of any willful or continued neglect by you of your duties, any serious misconduct or any breach of this contract on your part, the Bank reserves the right to terminate your employment forthwith and without notice or payment in lieu of notice and you shall be bound by such a decision and shall not question the same.

Clause 11 : "The contract may be terminated by either party giving to the other not less than one month's and not more than thirty days prior written notice to that effect expiring at any time after the commencement of your service hereunder or by the Bank paying you one month's basic salary in lieu of Notice (wherein before or after such notice of termination is given by you). The Bank shall be entitled, whether such notice of termination is given by you or the Bank, to require you to proceed on leave at the time of receiving or giving such notice of termination or at any time thereafter. The unavailed leave may be adjusted against the notice period, at the discretion of the management. The Bank shall also be entitled to terminate your service forthwith by paying one month's salary in lieu of notice.

Clause 12 : "On expiry of two years from the date of commencement of this contract, your services will automatically come to an end without any further act of the Bank.

From the terms of the FTC, it was apparent that the continuation of the employment of the Workman would be subject to adhering the terms and FTC as well as meeting of the business targets determined by the Bank from time to time. The Original FTC dated October 25, 2008 is annexed herewith as ANNEXURE M - 3.

5. That Vikash Lahariya (in terms of the FTC) started working with the Management /Bank with effect from November 1, 2008 under the Managerial Capacity and was drawing monthly salary of Rs. 4,500/- (Rupees Four Thousand Five Hundred Only) and monthly conveyance allowance of Rs. 2,500/- (Rupees Two Thousand Five Hundred Only). Apart from the salaries and the allowances, the Workman was provided group medical insurance for a sum of Rs. 50,000/-. The Workman was even provided as well as asked to be participating in the Bank's Staff provident Fund.

6. In terms of the FTC, the Workman was required to perform his work at New Delhi or such other place or places in or outside India as the Bank or its associates or subsidiaries may from time to time specify. The Workman was to report to his Reporting Manager namely Shri Mahesh Joshi at Jhandewalan Extn., New Delhi branch of the Bank. In view of the employment, a Salary Bank Account bearing no. 0013851040000262 was also opened in the name of the Workman, wherein the monthly salary of the Workman was directly deposited by the Bank.

7. That the Workman was assigned his work and responsible for managing the work during his tenure are as under:

(a) The workman was mainly responsible for maintaining the relationship with merchants mapped him;

(b) He was responsible for generation of volume and

cross sell;

(c) He was responsible to make daily visits to merchants and ensure that the merchants contribute volume for the Bank;

(d) To complete the profile sheet for the complete merchant base mapped to him, which give details of the merchant;

(e) For managing the relationship with the merchant, in case if any merchant has any sales/service related issues;

(f) To ensure that the merchants utilize/inform any

additional features provided by the Bank;

(g) For sourcing of merchants;

(h) To collect KYC documents for sourcing merchants form and send the same CANI/branch for CA opening;

(i) For sourcing merchants from competition banks.

It is pertinent to state that the performance of the Workman was under par, right from the inception of his job and much below the assigned work given by the Bank. That the Workman (during tenure of his job) never perform his duties successfully.

8. The Workman was coached, trained and assisted to carry on the job assigned by the Bank. It was noticed that the Workman, on numerous occasions failed to perform his duties under the FTC. That the Management through its Reporting Manager constantly and reminded the Workman to improve his performance and also pointed out the derelictions in his duty, which had no heed on the Workman.

[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6995

it is evident that the Workman has been unnecessarily filing the frivolous and futile litigations against the Bank, who acted within the terms of the FTC. It is the Workman, who is in breach of the terms of the FTC and as such is estopped from alleging to the contrary. The Management reserves its rights to initiate proper proceeding against the Workman for the loss of name and damages for the wrongful effort to defame the reputation of the Management Bank.

PARA-WISE REPLY TO THE CLAIM:

AS NO CLAIM PETITION HAS BEEN FILED BY THE WORKMAN; HENCE THE MANAGEMENT IS UNABLE TO GIVE ANY PARA WISE REPY TO CLIAM ON MERIT AND RESERVES IT RIGHT TO REPLY AS WHEN THE NEED ARISES.

PRAYER

9. Despite, numerous opportunities given to the Workman to improve his performance, he failed to perform his duties/responsibilities. Instead of concentrating on the service and improving his performance, the Workman went on leave without any due approval of his immediate Reporting Manager with effect from July 24, 2009. That thereafter, the Workman never contacted the Bank and voluntarily disengaged his services without intimating Management with the plausible reasons. Moreover, the Workman never assigned his duties to any other manager nor he has given charge of his job and responsibilities of the team to any other employee, which clearly shows breach of his responsibilities. Failing to improve his performance and further going on leave without any due approval /sanction. In view of the Workman's constant default vis-à-vis clause 7 of the FTC and his unwarranted ceaseure from the services of Management, the employment of Workman got terminated in August 2009. The table below shall show the details of number of days worked, number of days absent and the salary received and credited the Salary Account of the Workman:

S# Month Number of Salary paid days present

1 Jan '09 3 1 Rs. 20,767/- salary for the month of December' 08 and Jan, 2009 along with incentive.

2 Feb '09 2 8 Rs. 7,025/- salary along with

incentive

4 Mar '09 3 1 Rs. 7300/- salary along with

incentive.

5 April '09 3 0 Rs. 8,175/- salary along with

incentive.

6 May '09 3 1 Rs. 7,775/- salary along with

incentive.

7 June '09 3 0 Rs. 8,100/-, salary along with

incentive.

8. July '09 2 3 Rs. 8,600/- salary along with

incentive.

The copy chart explaining the Salary pay slip for the workman during the tenure of his service is annexed herewith as ANNEXURE M - 4. The Workman duly acknowledged and utilized the Salary paid for the notice period; meaning thereby accepting the termination.

10. Despite, failure in achieving the targets as well as going on unapproved /unsanctioned leave, Vikash Lahariya (not being Workman as per the provision of the Act) has approached this Hon'ble Court with the alleged present false, frivolous and vexatious claim (though no claim petition has been filed) before this Hon'ble Court. That prima facie the alleged Claim is clearly an afterthought and has been instituted by the Workman with malafide intention and ulterior motive. It is an effort to harass the Management to put an undue pressure on them so that the Management in directly succumb to the unlawful demands of the Workman. That from the above, IT IS THEREFORE, MOST RESPECTFULLY PRAYED THAT THIS HON'BLE COURT MAY BE PLEASED TO:

(a) Dismiss the above alleged Claim, in the interest of justice and equity with punitive and exemplary costs being awarded to the Management; and in that behalf

(b) pass any order or further order/orders as this Hon'ble

Court may deem fit and proper.

AND FOR THIS ACT OF KINDNESS, THE MANAGEMENT AS IN DUTY BOUND SHALL EVER PRAY.

On the basis of non-interestedness of workman. The proceeding of this case is not liable to be proceeded further. Hence proceedings of the case are liable to be dropped and no dispute award is liable to be passed. Which is liable to be passed.

No Dispute Award is accordingly passed.

7. उभय पक्षों की बहस सुनी गयी। पत्रावली का अवलोकन किया गया।

8. प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि का कथन है कि प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति दिनांक 02.07.76 को कल्चरल स्पोर्टस कोटे से खलासी एवजी के पद पर अस्थायी रूप से की गयी थी, जिसे बाद में स्थायी कर दिया गया। प्रार्थी को व्यावसायिक परीक्षा उत्तीर्ण करने पर दिनांक 15.11.1980 को इलैक्ट्रोप्लेटर ग्रेड-I एवं दिनांक 03.04.86 को इलेक्ट्रोप्लेटर गे्रड-II के पद पर पदोन्नत किया गया है। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि का तर्क है कि विपक्षी की ओर से प्रार्थी के नियमितीकरण, पदोन्नति, सर्विस बुक आदि न्यायाधिकरण के आदेष के बावजूद प्रस्तुत नहीं किये गये हैं। उक्त रिकार्ड खोने के संबंध में कोई रेकार्ड पेष नहीं किया गया। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि का तर्क है कि विपक्षी द्वारा खलासी के पद पर क्या निर्धारित योग्यता थी, इस संबंध में कोई विज्ञापन तथा नियम पेष नहीं किये गये हैं। प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति किस कोटे के तहत की गयी, इस संबंध में भी कोई प्रलेख पेष नहीं किया गया है। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि का कथन है कि प्रार्थी द्वारा शैक्षणिक योग्यता के संबंध में कोई प्रमाण पत्र पेष नहीं किया गया है और जन्म तिथि माता-पिता के बताये अनुसार लिखायी गयी है। प्रार्थी द्वारा कोई फर्जी दस्तावेजात्‌ प्रस्तुत कर नौकरी प्राप्त नहीं की गयी है। विपक्षी की ओर से न्यायाधिकरण के समक्ष आज तक पूरा रेकार्ड प्रस्तुत नहीं किया गया है। दिनांक 05.10.98 को विभागीय जांच को अषुद्ध घोषित किया जा चुका है। विपक्षी की ओर से कोई साक्ष्य पेष नहीं हुयी है। जांच में प्रार्थी को दस्तावेजात उपलब्ध नहीं कराये गये। जांच अधिकारी एवं विभागीय प्रतिनिधि कब नियुक्त किये गये और इसकी सूचना भी प ्र ा थ् ा ी र् क ा े न ह ी ं द ी ग य ी । प ्र ा थ् ा ी र् क ा े व्यक्तिगत सुनवाई का अवसर नहीं दिया गया। जांच प्रतिवेदन की प्रति उपलब्ध नहीं कराई ग य ी । प ्र ा थ् ा ी र् क ा े ि द न ा ं क 08.01.88 को सेवापृथक कर दिया गया। जिसके विरूद्ध प्रार्थी द्वारा अभ्यावेदन दिनांक 07. 09.87 को पेष किया गया। प्रार्थी द्वारा प्रस्तुत अपील, रिवीजन दोनों खारिज कर द ी ग य ी ं । ि व प क्ष् ा ी क ा े ि न व ा र् ह भ् ा त् त े क ा भुगतान नहीं किये जाने पर न्यायाधिकरण द्व ा र ा ि व प क्ष् ा ी क े ि व रू द्ध ि द न ा ं क 31.7.2000 को अवार्ड पारित किया जा चुका है। विपक्षी की ओर से प्रार्थी को निर्वाह भत्ते का आज तक भुगतान नहीं किया गया। प्रार्थी द्वारा पूरी जांच में यही कथन किया गया है कि वह पढ़ा-लिखा नहीं है, वह केवल हस्ताक्षर करना ही जानता है। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि का कथन है कि विपक्षी द्वारा न्यायाधिकरण को रेफरेंस सुनने का क्षेत्राधिकार नहीं होने के संबंध में विपक्षी रेफरेंस को चैलेंज करते, अब इतने वर्षो बाद यह तर्क नहीं दिया जा सकता। अतः प्रार्थी को पुनः सेवा में लिये जाने तथा पिछले वेतन-भत्ते तथा सभी लाभ दिलाये जाने का अवार्ड पारित किया जावे। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा अपने तर्कों के समर्थन में निम्न न्यायिक दृष्टांत पेष किये गये हैं :-

1. 1992 लेब आई सी 2391 (एस.सी.) स्टेट ऑफ पंजाब व अन्य बनाम राम सिंह

9. विपक्षी के विद्वान प्रतिनिधि का कथन है कि प्रार्थी श्रमिक की परिभाषा में नहीं आता है। न्यायाधिकरण को औ0वि0अधि0 1947 की धारा 7 क(1) के तहत सुनने व निर्णित करने का अधिकार नहीं है। अप्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि का तर्क है कि प्रार्थी द्वारा नियुक्ति के समय 08.11.76 के साक्ष्यांकन पत्र के कॉलम संख्या 10 में, जिसे राजपत्रित अधिकारी से सत्यापित कराकर व अपने हस्ताक्षर कर पेष की गयी थी, जिसमें प्रार्थी के6998 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)] विद्यालय का नाम रा0उ0प्रा0विद्यालय अलवर गेट, अ ज म े र , ि व द्य ा ल य म े ं प ्र व े ष् ा क ी ि द न ा ं क 08.09.1959, विद्यालय छोड़ने की दिनांक 02.07.1962 तथा योग्यता आठवीं पास लिखी हुयी थी। प्रार्थी के जन्मतिथि व शैक्षणिक योग्यता का सत्यापन कराने पर राज0उ0प्रा0वि0 अलवर गेट, अजमेर के प्रधानाचार्य ने अपने पत्र दिनांक 22.10.86 व 13.12.86 में स्पष्ट किया कि उक्त विद्यालय 1961 तक छठवीं कक्षा तक था तथा उसके बाद आठवीं तक में परिवर्तित किया गया। अतः श्री घीसूलाल का विद्यालय में अध्ययन करना एवं आठवीं उत्तीर्ण होना दोनों ही गलत है। प्रार्थी द्वारा नियुक्ति के लिये गलत तथ्य एवं प्रमाण पत्र दिये जाने पर आरोप पत्र जारी कर नियमानुसार विभागीय जांच करायी गयी, जिसमें आरोप सही पाये जाने पर सेवापृथक किया गया है। प्रार्थी ने जांच रिपोर्ट से भ् ा ी स ं त ु ष् ट ह ा े न ा ब त ा य ा ह ै । प ्र ा थ् ा ी र् प्रतिनिधि द्वारा लिपिक द्वारा योग्यता भरा जाना बताया है, लेकिन यह योग्यता भी प्रार्थी के कहे जाने पर ही लिपिक द्वारा भरी होगी, इसमें लिपिक का क्या इन्टेंषन था। प्रतिनिधि का तर्क है कि खलासी के पद हेतु आठवीं कक्षा उत्तीर्ण होना आवष्यक है। प्रार्थी के आठवीं उत्तीर्ण नहीं पाये जाने पर उसे सेवापृथक किया गया है। प्रार्थी द्वारा प्रस्तुत अपील को भी सारहीन मानकर दण्ड यथावत रखा है। प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा अपनी याचिका में अपनी जन्मतिथि व शैक्षणिक योग्यता के प्रमाण पत्र पेष नहीं करने का कोई कारण नहीं बताया है। प्रतिनिधि का तर्क है कि प्रार्थी द्वारा निर्धारित योग्यता नहीं रखने के कारण प्रार्थी को सेवापृथक किया गया है। प्रार्थी द्वारा प्रस्तुत क्लेम खारिज किये जाने योग्य है। अप्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि द्वारा अपने तर्कों के समर्थन में निम्न न्यायिक दृष्टांत पेष किये गये हैं -

1. (2012) 8 एस सी सी 748 जैनेन्द्र सिंह बनाम स्टेट ऑफ उत्तरप्रदेष।

10. उभय पक्षों के तर्कों का मनन किया। पत्रावली का गहनता से अवलोकन व अध्ययन किया गया।

प्रार्थी श्री घीसूलाल की नियुक्ति दिनांक 01.07.76 को दिनांक 02.07.76 से रिक्त खलासी के पद के विरूद्ध अस्थायी अवजी खलासी के पद पर अस्थायी रूप से की गयी थी। प्रार्थी श्री घीसूलाल द्वारा दिनांक 02.07.76 को उक्त पद पर कार्यभार ग्रहण किया गया। दिनांक 15.02. 80 के आदेष द्वारा प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति दिनांक 02. 07.76 से खलासी के पद पर नियमित रूप से मानी गयी है। प्रार्थी को व्यावसायिक परीक्षा उत्तीर्ण करने पर दिनांक 15.04.80 से इलेक्ट्रोप्लेटर ग्रेड-I के पद पर एवं आदेष दिनांक 07.05.86 द्वारा इलेक्ट्रोप्लेटर के पद पर पदोन्नत किया गया है।

11. विभागीय जांच को न्यायाधिकरण के आदेष दिनांक 05.10.98 द्वारा अषुद्ध एवं अनुचित घोषित किया गया है। विपक्षी की ओर से कोई साक्ष्य पेष नहीं होने पर न्यायाधिकरण द्वारा साक्ष्य विपक्षी दिनांक 19.05.99 को बंद की गयी तथा साक्ष्य प्रार्थी में स्वयं प्रार्थी का शपथ पत्र पेष हुआ ह ै , ि ज स स े ि व प क्ष् ा ी प ्र ि त ि न ि ध् ा द्व ा र ा प ्र ि त प र ी क्ष् ा ा न ह ी ं क ी ग य ी ह ै । प ्र ा थ् ा ी र् घीसूलाल ने अपने शपथ पत्र में बयान किया है कि प्रार्थी द्वारा अपनी नियुक्ति के समय कभी भी स्वयं को आठवीं उत्तीर्ण नहीं बताया गया तथा उसकी नियुक्ति नाटक कोटे के आधार पर होना कथन किया है। प्रार्थी श्रमिक ने अपने बयानों में बताया है कि विपक्षी द्वारा उसकी नियुक्ति के समय बनायी ग य ी स ि व र् स श् ा ी ट , व् य ि क् त ग त प त्र ा व ल ी न्यायाधिकरण के समक्ष पेष नहीं की गयी है। विपक्षी द्वारा प्रार्थी घीसूलाल से कोई प्रतिपरीक्षा नहीं की गयी है। अतः प्रार्थी द्वारा प्रस्तुत साक्ष्य अकाट्‌य है।

12. विपक्षी प्रतिनिधि की ओर से यह तर्क दिया गया है कि प्रार्थी द्वारा दिनांक 08. 11.76 को पेष साक्ष्यांकन प्रपत्र में अपनी जन्मतिथि 15.04.1947 तथा स्वयं को रा0उ0प्रा0विद्यालय, अलवर गेट,अजमेर से आठवीं कक्षा उत्तीर्ण होना अंकित किया है। उक्त विद्यालय से शैक्षणिक योग्यता की सत्यापन कराने पर प्रार्थी उक्त विद्यालय में अध्ययन नहीं करना तथा आठवीं उत्तीर्ण नहीं होना बताया है। मेरे विनम्र मत में किसी भी नियुक्ति के लिये पहले विज्ञापन प्रकाषित किया जाता है, उसी के उपरांत निर्धारित प्रक्रिया अपनाकर नियुक्ति प्रदान की जाती है। विपक्षी द्वारा विचारणीय प्रकरण में ऐसा कोई विज्ञापन पेष नहीं किया गया है, कि खलासी के पद पर नियुक्ति हेतु कोई विज्ञापन प्रकाषित किया गया हो। विपक्षी द्वारा खलासी क े प द ह े त ु ि न ध् ा ा र् ि र त य ा े ग् य त ा अ ा ठ व ी ं उ त् त ी ण् ा र् ह ा े न ा ब त ा य ा ह ै , प र न् त ु ि व प क्ष् ा ी द्वारा ऐसे कोई सेवानियम पेष नहीं किये हैं, जिनमें यह अंकित हो कि खलासी के पद की निर्धारित योग्यता आठवीं उत्तीर्ण है। अतः विपक्षी द्वारा विज्ञापन, सेवा नियम न्यायाधिकरण के समक्ष पेष नहीं करना विपक्षी के प्रति प्रतिकूल अवधारणा प्रकट करता है।

[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 6999

13. प ्र ा थ् ा ी र् द्व ा र ा अ प न े त क ा े र् ं म े ं अ प न ी नियुक्ति कल्चरल स्पोर्ट के आधार पर किया जाना बताया है, परन्तु विपक्षी द्वारा प्रार्थी की न्यायालय के आदेष के बावजूद व्यक्तिगत पत्रावली पेष नहीं की गयी, जिससे यह सिद्ध नहीं हो सकता कि प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति किस क ा े ट े म े ं ह ु य ी । ि व प क्ष् ा ी द्व ा र ा न् य ा य ा ल य आदेष के बावजूद वांछित दस्तावेजात्‌ पेष नहीं करना विपक्षी की ओर प्रतिकूल अवधारण प्रकट करता है।

होती है। उक्त पद पर कार्य की प्रकृति को भी कंसीडर करते हुये नियुक्ति प्रदान की ज ा स क त ी ह ै । ि व प क्ष् ा ी द्व ा र ा प ्र ा थ् ा ी र् क ी स े व ा य े ं उ स क ी ि न य ु ि क् त ि द न ा ं क 02.07.76 से नियमित मानी गयी हैं। प्रार्थी को उसके सेवाकाल में व्यावसायिक परीक्षा उत्तीर्ण करने पर इलेक्ट्रोप्लेटर ग्रेड-I एवं इलेक्ट्रोप्लेटर गेे्रड-II के पद पर पदोन्नत किया गया है। किसी भी पदोन्नति से पूर्व उसके सेवाकाल में कोई प्रतिकूल प्रविष्टि नहीं होने एवं नियमित सेवा होने के उपरांत ही किसी कर्मचारी को पदोन्नति प्रदान की जाती है। प्रार्थी को उसके सेवाकाल में दो बाद पदोन्नति प्रदान की गयी है। जिससे यह साबित होता है कि उसकी सेवायें नियमित थीं एवं उसके सेवाकाल में कोई प्रतिकूल प्रविष्टि अंकित नहीं थी।

16. विपक्षी की ओर से प्रस्तुत न्यायिक दृष्टांत (2012) 8 एस सी सी 748 जैनेन्द्र सिंह बनाम स्टेट ऑफ उत्तरप्रदेष में माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय द्वारा प्रतिपादित सिद्धांत अवैध नियुक्ति के संबंध में है, जबकि विचारणीय प्रकरण में प्रार्थी की नियुक्ति नियमित नियुक्ति है। अतः उक्त न्यायिक दृष्टांत हस्तगत प्रकरण के तथ्यों एवं परिस्थितियों से भिन्न होने के कारण हस्तगत प्रकरण में लागू नहीं होता है।

17. विपक्षी द्वारा यह आपत्ति की गयी है कि प्रार्थी श्रमिक की परिभाषा में नहीं आता है और न्यायाधिकरण को रेफरेंस सुनने व निर्णित करने का अधिकार नहीं है। इस संबंध में माननीय उच्च न्यायालय एवं सर्वोच्च न्यायालय द्वारा विभिन्न न् य ा ि य क द ृ ष् ट ा ं त ा े ं म े ं य ह ि स द्ध ा ं त ा े ं प्रतिपादित किया गया है कि न्यायाधिकरण का क्षेत्राधिकार रेफरेंस के विवादित बिन्दु तक ही है और न्यायाधिकरण रेफरेंस से बाहर जाकर निर्णिय नहीं दे सकता। अतः न् य ा य ा ि ध् ा क र ण् ा क ा े प ्र ा प् त र े फ र े ं स म े ं विवादित बिन्दु पर ही अपना निर्णय पारित करना है। अतः विपक्षी प्रतिनिधि की उक्त आपत्ति स्वीकार की जाने योग्य नहीं है।

14. मेरे विनम्र मत में किसी भी नियुक्ति से पूर्व निर्धारित योग्यता संबंधी प्रमाण पत्रों का सत्यापन करने के उपरांत ही नियुक्ति प्रदान की जाती है। प्रार्थी घासूलाल को दिनांक 02.07.76 से खलासी के पद पर ि न य ु ि क् त द ी ग य ी ह ै अ ा ै र प ्र ा थ् ा ी र् द्व ा र ा दिनांक 08.11.76 को साक्ष्यांकन प्रपत्र पेष किया गया है, जो नियुक्ति के 04 माह बाद पेष किया गया है। साक्ष्यांकन प्रपत्र के कॉलम संख्या 07 में प्रार्थी की जन्म तिथि दिनांक 15.04.1947 तथा कॉलम संख्या 10 में प ्र ा थ् ा ी र् क ी श् ा ै क्ष् ा ि ण् ा क य ा े ग् य त ा अ ा ठ व ी ं उत्तीर्ण अंकित है। प्रार्थी द्वारा नियुक्ति के समय कोई भी प्रमाण-पत्र पेष नहीं करना तथा माता-पिता के बताये अनुसार जन्म तिथि अंकित कराना बताया गया है। विपक्षी द्वारा भी ऐसा कहीं नहीं कहा गया है कि प ्र ा थ् ा ी र् न े फ ज ी र् अ ा ठ व ी ं उ त् त ी ण् ा र् क ी अंकतालिका नियुक्ति के समय पेष की हो। प्रार्थी द्वारा संपूर्ण जांच में, जवाब तथा बहस में यही कहा गया है, कि वह पढ़ा-लिखा नहीं है, वह केवल हस्ताक्षर करना जानता है। साक्ष्यांकन प्रपत्र भी प्रार्थी द्वारा स्वयं भरकर पेष नहीं किया गया है, ऐसी स्थिति में इस तर्क पर विष्वास नहीं किया जा सकता कि प्रार्थी द्वारा अपनी नियुक्ति के समय अपनी शैक्षणिक योग्यता आठवीं उत्तीर्ण बतायी गयी हो। वैसे भी प्रार्थी ने अपनी भर्ती कल्चरल स्पोर्ट कोटे के तहत होना बताया है। विपक्षी द्वारा प्रार्थी की व्यक्तिगत पत्रावली अ ा ै र ि न ध् ा ा र् ि र त य ा े ग् य त ा अ ा ठ व ी ं उ त् त ी ण् ा र् ह ा े न े ब ा ब त ्‌ क ा े इ र् स े व ा ि न य म प े ष् ा ि क य े गये है और न ही इस संबंध में कोई म ा ै ि ख् ा क स ा क्ष् य ि व प क्ष् ा ी क ी अ ा े र स े न्यायाधिकरण के समक्ष पेष की गयी है। अतः विपक्षी प्रतिनिधि की यह आपत्ति स्वीकार की जाने योग्य नहीं है।

15. मेरे विनम्र मत में खलासी के पद हेतु किसी तकनीकी षिक्षा की आवष्यकता नहीं

18. प्रार्थी प्रतिनिधि की ओर से प्रस्तुत न् य ा ि य क द ृ ष् ट ा ं त ा े ं म ै ं न े ब ा र ी क ी स े अध्योपांत विनम्रतापूर्वक अवलोकन किया। उ प र ा े क् त स भ् ा ी द ृ ष् ट ा ं त ा े ं क े त थ् य ए व ं प ि र ि स् थ् ा ि त य ा ॅ ं ह स् त ग त प ्र क र ण् ा क े त थ् य ा े ं एवं परिस्थितियों से समानता रखते हैं, अतः उक्त सभी न्यायिक दृष्टांत प्रार्थी के क े स म े ं ल ा ग ू ह ा े त े ह ै ं । ि ज न क ा प ्र भ् ा ा व यथोचित रूप से ऊपर विवेचना में दिया गया ह ै ।

ANNEXURE

BEFORE THE CENTRAL GOVERNMENT

INDUSTRIAL TRIUBNAL-CUM-LABOUR COURT,

Dated : 8th October, 2014

3. The I Party in his claim statement asserted that he who was appointed as Peon at Harapanahalli Branch of the II Party on 16.06.2003 was later transferred to Harihar and then to Davangere branches and that he worked sincerely and that on account of physical illness, Jaundice and Fever he applied for grant of leave alongwith medical certificates from time to time and the II Party without considering the same issued him charge sheet dated 24.03.2006 alleging unauthorised absence from 19.12.2005[भाग II—खण्ड 3(ii)] भारत का राजपत्रा : अक्तूबर 25, 2014/कातक 3, 1936 7001 to 31.03.2006 for a period of 93 days through incompetent authority and the enquiry was held without causing him notice exparte and based on such report he has been illegally discharged without paying retrenchment compensation and as the conciliation petition filed by him before ALC(C), Hubli ended with failure report the Government of India made this reference for adjudication and as he is not employed anywhere the order of discharge be set aside with direction to reinstate him with continuity of service, full backwages and other consequential benefits. INTERALIA, the II party in its counter statement without disputing that he was appointed on 16.06.2003 and was transferred from Harapanahalli to Harihar and then to Davangere branches contended that while he was working in the Davangere branch since remained absent for duty unauthorisedly from 19.12.2005 to 21.03.2006 without taking prior permission and leave at his credit the Assistant General Manager who happens to be the Disciplinary Authority issued him charge sheet on 24.03.2006 calling upon him to give explanation and as he failed to respond an order was made to conduct departmental enquiry appointing Sh. H H Ramappa as Enquiry Officer and Sh. P Sundar Raman as Presenting Officer and as the Enquiry Officer after conducting the enquiry affording all opportunities submitted his report as charge being proved the Disciplinary Authority issued him show cause notice and as he did not give any explanation and he also did not avail the opportunity provided for personal hearing he passed the order dated 08.02.2007 discharging him from service. Having regard to the allegations made in the claim statement that the enquiry was conducted exparte without causing any notice, by framing a Preliminary Issue as to

"Whether the Domestic Enquiry held against the I Party by the II party is fair and proper?"

after receiving the evidence adduced by both the sides and hearing the arguments addressed by both the sides while answering the said issue in the negative i.e., the Domestic Enquiry conducted is not fair and proper mainly on the ground that there was no material having served the notice of enquiry on the I Party by order dated 11.12.2012 the II Party was called upon to lead evidence to substantiate the charge levelled against the I Party. Then the learned advocate appearing for the II party while filing the affidavit of Sh. H R Prakash the Manager of the Davangere Branch of the relevant period of the alleged unauthorised absence reiterating the contents of the counter statement while examining him on oath as MW 1 (M) got exhibited copy of the call letter issued to the I party calling back to duty dated Nil; copy of report given by the manager to the Regional Manager reporting his unauthorized absence bearing the acknowledgement of the I party; letter by AGM to the I party dated 22.3.2006 calling for his explanation for unauthorized absence from 19.12.2005; postal acknowledgement having served the letter dated 22.03.2006 on I Party; charge sheet issued to the I party dated 24.03.2006; show cause notice issued to the I party after receipt of the enquiry finding dated 05.12.2006; the undelivered postal cover containing the show cause notice returned with shara as not claimed dated 18.12.2006; copy of the final discharge order dated 10.01.2007; undelivered postal cover containing the discharge order; copy of the discharge notice dated 08.02.2007 by AGM; Vijaya Karnataka daily dated 11.02.2007 publishing the discharge notice as Ex M-1(m) to Ex M-11(m) respectively and closed his side. Then the learned advocate appearing for the I Party reporting the death of I Party workman applying to bring his Wife as Legal Representative on record as there was no objection for the same by the II Party bringing her on record as the LR of the deceased I Party workman filing her affidavit reiterating the contents of the claim statement examining her on oath as WW 1 (M) got exhibited Photostat copy of I Party death certificate; Voter ID of I Party; heirship certificate issued by Revenue Department and Genealogy issued by Village Accountant as Ex W-1 to Ex W-4 respectively.

4. With the above pleadings, evidence brought on record when the learned advocates appearing for the parties were called upon to address arguments, the learned advocate appearing for the I Party urged that the II Party having failed to produce the attendance register to show alleged unauthorised absence the very unauthorised absence being not proved the charge be held as not proved and as the I Party workman is no more II Party be directed to pay his wife who has come on record as his legal representative the amount equivalent to the wages that he would have drawn from the date of his discharge till the date of his death. INTERALIA, the learned advocate appearing for the II party urged that as the absence for the relevant period incorporated in the charge sheet being admitted contending that he had forwarded applications for leave from time to time there is no necessity to produce the attendance register to show that he had remained absent for the said period and it was for the I Party to produce evidence that during this period he was suffering from Jaundice and fever and had sent leave applications with medical certificates from time to time but having failed to substantiate the same by producing any evidence the charge has to be held as proved and the punishment imposed discharging him from service be upheld and reference be rejected.

5. On appreciation of the pleadings, oral and documentary evidence brought on record in the light of the arguments put forward by the learned advocates, I have arrived at the conclusion that the II Party proved the deceased I Party workman having unauthorisedly remaining absent from duty from 19.12.2005 to 21.03.20067002 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : OCTOBER 25, 2014/KARTIKA 3, 1936 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)] for a period of 93 days without taking prior permission and leave at his credit and II Party is justified in imposing the punishment of discharge from service for the following

REASONS

6. As rightly urged on behalf of the II Party the I Party workman who was alive while filing the claim statement since did not dispute having remained absent for the relevant period of charge having pleaded that as he was suffering on account of physical illment, Jaundice and Fever applied for grant of leave with medical certificates from time to time and II Party without considering them issued him the charge sheet for unauthorised absence for the said period there was no necessity for the II Party to

demonstrate that he had remained absent for the relevant period by producing the attendance register and it was for the I Party workman to prove by producing relevant material/evidence that during that period he was suffering from illness like Jaundice and Fever and had sent applications for leave from time to time but no evidence in that regard being brought on record terming the absence in question as unauthorised without leave at his credit cannot for any reason be held unjustified or illegal or perverse. The wife of the deceased I Party workman who gave evidence came out with a version in the cross- examination that her husband had taken treatment as inpatient in Chigateri Hospital in Davangere for a period of three months for Backbone pain but failed to produce any medical records in that regard. Moreover, the allegation in the claim statement being that during the relevant period he was suffering from Jaundice and Fever her version that he was admitted in the Chigateri Hospital for Backbone pain suggest that he must not have been suffering from any illness. Moreover, as already adverted to by me above no material/evidence being produced having submitted leave applications with medical certificates from time to time as alleged in the claim statement the absence has to be treated as unauthorised without any leave at his credit. Therefore, I have arrived at conclusion the II Party having established the charge of unauthorised absence for 93 days from 19.12.2005 to 21.03.2006 without leave at his credit. Since there is no evidence the I Party even having sent a letter of request for grant of leave on account of his illness and even failed to give his explanation when the Disciplinary Authority issued him show cause notice and also did not avail the opportunity of hearing provided to him it suggest that he had no mind to work and continue in the job as such the Disciplinary Authority imposing the punishment of discharge from service cannot be for any reason termed as disproportionate to the proved misconduct of unauthorised absence over a period of 93 days. Hence, I arrived at conclusion that the action of the management of State Bank of Mysore, Davangere in discharging Sh. R P Nagarajachar w.e.f. 08.02.2007 is legal and justified. Under the circumstances, I pass the following

ORDER

The Reference is Rejected holding that the action of the management of State Bank of Mysore, Davangere in discharging Sh. R P Nagarajachar w.e.f. 08.02.2007 is legal and justified and that he/his LR is not entitle for any relief.
