2385
regularize the services by the II Party and to grant all consequential benefits from the date of
entitlement. Having failed the conciliation, the Government of India referred the dispute for
adjudication to this Hon’ble Tribunal vide reference letter dated 27.08.2021 and the same is
pending in the above reference.
2) The II Party is under voluntary liquidation and the same has been approved by Cabinet

Disputes Act 1947, were served on all the stake holders. The II party has appointed the liquidator
and the winding up and closu7re of the establishment of VIL is in progress and also is in the
process of settlement of employee related issued.
3) The II Party and recognized Union of the II party i.e Vignyan Industries Mazdoor Sangh
(VIMS) had discussions regarding resolving all the employee related issued and in the meeting held
on 23.09.2021 settlements had been reached. Consequently, the Parties had entered into a
Memorandum of Settlement (MoS) dated 29.09.2021 under Section 12(3) r/w 18(3) of the Industrial
Disputes Act in the presence of Conciliation Officer and Asst. Labour Commissioner (C),
Mangaluru. As per the said MoS, VIMS had requested the Management for providing
employment in BEML for the Applicants herein and Management had agreed to look into the
same. As per the said MoS, the entire disputes between the parties were fully and finally settled.
Further, the parties had mutually agreed that no dispute would be raised in future on terms settled
and agreed to withdraw the court cases / litigations initiated by them against the II Party to enable
the II Party to complete the terms of settlement. A copy of the said MoS dated 29.09.2021 is
produced herewith and marked as Annexure-A.
4) The Applicants herein had adopted the said MoS and undertaken to abide by the terms of MoS.
In terms of the MoS, the Applicants have been given employment in BEML. As a consequence, the
dispute raised in the above said reference has become non-est and infructuous.
5) In view of the facts stated above, the Applicants herein have voluntarily filed their individual
applications dated 05.10.2021 before this Hon’ble Tribunal praying to delete their names from the
party array / dispute and submitted that they have withdrawn their membership from the I Party
Union and enclosed their letter of resignation from the I Party Union. Copies of the said
withdrawal letters dated 05.10.2021 submitted by the Applicants herein are produced and marked

6) Since the disputes raised by the Applicants herein have been settled, there is no need to continue
with the above reference any longer.
7) Therefore, the Applicants herein and II Party most respectfully prays that this Hon’ble Court
may be pleased to take this Joint Memo on record and dismiss the dispute as settled out of court
and to pass such other orders as may be deemed fit in the interest of justice and equity.”
4.
The Memorandum of Settlement under Section 12(3) r/w 18(3) of ID Act since enclosed with the Joint
Memo is taken into Judicial Consideration. The Form H speaks about the short recital of the case, the second
page discloses the terms of the settlement arrived by both the parties. It reveals that the 1st Party voluntarily
entered into the settlement which was found to have been executed before the Conciliation Officer. Besides the
1st Party members expressed that they have no further claim as against the 2nd Party in view of the settlement
dated 29.09.2021.
5.
Since all the 1st party workmen (11 members) reported withdrawal of membership from the Union and
agreed upon the settlement, eventually there exist no Industrial Dispute between the parties for adjudication as
referred.
AWARD
The reference is answered accordingly. The ID case stands dismissed in terms of the Settlement
dated 29.09.2021.

AWARD
This is an application filed by the claimant invoking the provision of sec 2A of the ID Act 1947,
wherein he has challenged the order of Termination of his service, describing the action of the respondent as
illegal, arbitrary and harassing.
As stated in the claim petition, the claimant Sanjay kumar had joined the service of the respondent in
September 2006 as an apprentice to discharge the duty of Food and Beverage Service Attendant. In April 2009,
his service was regularized in the post of Food and Beverage Service Attendant/W-1. For his satisfactory
performance, in 2012, he was given promotion to the post of Food and Beverage Service Attendant/W-2 and
working at IST/ITCTC/NRC. On 12.02.2015, he was orally informed by the supervisor Mr. Hitesh Sharma to
report for duty at the cafeteria in the 5th floor of Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Shastri Bhawan, New Delhi. On
the same day the claimant reported at his new place of duty and was assigned the duties to be performed. When
he was discharging his duties in the cafeteria, on 16.06.2015, the then DGM, NRP called him to his office and
asked how he is working in the cafeteria at Shastri Bhawan without any order of transfer. On hearing the
explanation offered by the claimant with regard to the oral instruction of the supervisor, the DGM, NRP, on
23.06.2015 gave a written communication to the claimant to the effect that his place of duty is
ISTM/IRCTC/NRC. This letter was received by the claimant on 27.06.2015 and immediately thereafter i.e on
29.06.2015, he reported for duty to one Mr. Jai Singh, supervisor of ISTM/IRCTC/NRC and worked there till
14.07.2015as Food and Beverage Service Attendant, when the supervisor Mr. Jai Singh again verbally
instructed him to join his duty in the base kitchen, New Delhi Railway Station. In view of his past experience,
the workman asked for a written order of his relocation. Instead of giving any such written order, the supervisor
Mr. Jai Singh took the claimant in his car to the base kitchen on 14.07.2015. There, instead of assigning duty,
the workman was asked to proceed on leave for 8-9 days during which the written order of his transfer will be
communicated to him. The workman being left with no other option, proceeded on leave as advised. But to his
astonishment, no written order of transfer was communicated as assured by the supervisor Jai Singh. On
24.07.2015, he visited his earlier place of posting i.e ISTM/IRCTC/NRC and asked for his order of transfer to
the base kitchen. He was not even allowed to mark his attendance there. He made communication by writing
letters to the higher authorities apprising as how he has been kept out of performing his duties. But the said
communication was never replied by the Management. Instead, to his utter surprise, on 24.08.2015, the
workman was placed under suspension by a written order issued from the office of the IRCTC, base kitchen
2394 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
New Delhi. On 09.05.2016, the order of suspension was revoked and the workman was directed to report for
duty immediately at the base kitchen, even though there was no written order of transfer to that place.
During the period of suspension the workman was served with a charge sheet dated 22.02.2016,
alleging unauthorized absence. The workman had given a written reply dt16.04.2016, denying the charge.
Though he had gone to the office of ISTM/IRCTC/NRC, again and again with the intension of joining duty, the
authorities did not allow him. He was informed about appointment of Mr. Darshan Kumar as the inquiry officer
of the domestic inquiry initiated against him. Though the workman was attending the inquiry on each date of the
proceeding and requesting the inquiry officer to take note of the fact that he is not getting the subsistence
allowance during the period of suspension, the same was never taken note of. He had last appeared before the
inquiry officer on 18.10.2016 and there after the date of adjournment was never communicated to him. On the
contrary, suddenly on 15.01.2017, he was informed about the closure of evidence and asked to submit the
written submission if any. The workman wrote a letter requesting the communication to be provided in Hindi as
he is not conversant with English. The request was not complied. Suddenly the work man received a
communication dated 29.05.2019, according to which the charge against him was held proved and the penalty of
dismissal from service was imposed on him. Before that final order the order of the inquiry officer was never
served on him nor he was called upon to show cause against the order of the inquiry officer and the punishment
proposed. Finding no other way, the workman has approached the labour commissioner for redressal of his
grievance. Steps were taken by the conciliation officer for settlement of the dispute. But for the non co operative
attitude of the Respondent no solution could be arrived and the failure report was communicated to the work
man. Having no other remedy available, he approached this Tribunal for setting aside the order of dismissal on
the ground that the inquiry was not fairly conducted and the punishment is an action of vindication, though he is
innocent.
Notice of the proceeding was served on the Respondent by post being sent by this Tribunal. But the
Respondent did not appear to participate in the proceeding. Thus by order dated 3rd January 2022, fresh notice
was issued to the respondent as well as the claimant since there were enblock adjournments on account of
COVID guideline and suspension of physical functioning of the Tribunal. In response to the said notice which
were served on both the parties, the workman appeared on 21st March 2022, but the respondent did not appear.
Hence by order dated 21.03.2022, the Respondent was proceeded exparte and the matter was adjourned for work
man evidence. On the next date the workman testified as WW1 and produced several documents, which were
taken on record as ww1/1 to ww1/40. These documents are the legal demand notice sent to the management
copy of the postal receipt showing dispatch of the same the copy of the claim filed before the Labour
Commissioner the reply filed by the management to the said claim, his appointment letter, office order dated
22.1.2015 several correspondence made by the claimant to the management copy of the leave application
seeking leave from 15.07.2015 etc. the claimant besides filing the documents in his oral statement has fully
supported the stand taken in the claim petition.
On perusal of the oral statement and the document which has been marked as WW1/4 and the reply
given by the management to the claim of the workman before the commissioner the admitted facts are that the
workman had joined into the employment of the management in the year 2006 and on 29.04.2009 his service
was regularized. On 13.07.2015 he was asked to work in the base kitchen at Railway Station New Delhi.
Whereas the claimant states that after reporting at the base kitchen he was asked to go on leave, the management
in his written reply before the labour commissioner had stated that the claimant voluntarily proceeded on leave
and thereafter instead of joining in the base kitchen he went to the office of NRC Unit/ ISTM with his father on
14.08.2015 and created nuisance. He interfered in the smooth functioning of the office for which he was warned.
He went on alleging that his transfer is legal and did not join duty at the base kitchen. For the unauthorized
absence charge was framed and he was proceeded with. At the end of the inquiry he was found guilty and major
punishment was imposed.
This statement made by the respondent before the labour commissioner was never recorded in this
proceeding for the non appearance of the management. Thus, the evidence of the claimant with regard to the
illegal termination has remained unchallenged and rebutted. On the basis of the unchallenged evidence adduced
by the claimant this tribunal comes to a conclusion that the management IRCTC had imposed a major
punishment on the claimant without conducting a proper domestic inquiry against him. As such the punishment
so imposed is liable to be set aside as illegal and arbitrary. Hence, ordered.
ORDER
The claim be and the same is allowed. It is held that the management IRCTC illegally terminated the
service of the claimant without holding a proper domestic inquiry and imposed a major penalty on him by
dismissing him from service. Accordingly it is held that the claimant is entitled to the relief of reinstatement
with back wages and continuity of service. Accordingly it is directed that the claimant shall report at the base
kitchen of IRCTC New Delhi railway station within one month from the date of publication of award and the
management shall allow him to join the duty. The management is further directed to pay 50% of the wage for

the intervening period between the date of termination and reinstatement to the claimant and treat the said period
as continuous service of the claimant and all other service benefits of the same period shall be granted to him.
The accrued back wages shall be paid to the claimant within two months from the date of his joining on
reinstatement without interest failing which the amount so accrued shall carry interest @ 6% per annum from
the date of accrual and till the final payment is made. Send a copy of this award to the appropriate government
for notification as required under section 17 of the ID act 1947.
The reference is accordingly answered.

AWARD
(Passed on 13-7-2022)
As per letter dated 29/8/2000 by the Government of India, Ministry of Labour, New Delhi, the
reference is received. The reference is made to this Tribunal under Section -10 of I.D.Act, 1947 as per
Notification No.L-40012/234/2000-IR(DU). The dispute under reference relates to:
“Whether the action of the management of Senior Suptd. Of Post Offices, Jabalpur Sambhag,
Jabalpur in terminating the services of Sh. Kishanlal Mehra, Extra Departmental Delivery Agent
w.e.f. 1/6/98 is legal and justified? If not, to what relief the workman is entitled .”
1.
After registering the case on the basis of reference, notices were sent to the parties. Both the parties
have filed their respect statement of claim/defence.
2.
The case of the workman as stated in his statement of claim is that he was employed by Management
as Branch Dakpal and posted at Gangai Post Office we.f. 24-4-1992 till 2-6-1998 and had attained the status of
permanent employee. He was issued a departmental charge sheet on the allegation of mis-appropriation of
Rs.18,100/- which he collected from depositors and was required to deposit in their respective accounts.
According to the workman, the inquiry was not conducted as per law. He was not given opportunity to defend
himself. Charges were not proved during the inquiry and punishment of dismissal was disproportionate to the
charges. The workman sought the relief of his reinstatement with all back wages. The workman was dismissed
by way of punishment by Disciplinary Authority acting on the basis of inquiry report dated 2-6-1998. The
Departmental appeal against dismissal was also rejected by Appellate Authority vide order dated 22-8-1999. A
mercy petition by the workman sent to the Post Master General was also rejected vide order dated 22-8-2000.
3.
According to the Management, the workman raised the amount from the account holder and did not
deposit the amount in their accounts. During the inquiry, he admitted his guilt and deposited the amount along
with interest. According to the Management the charges regarding misconduct were serious, hence the
punishment imposed is proportionate to the charge. The Management has thus requested that the reference be
answered against the workman.
4.
The following issues were framed by my learned Predecessor vide his order dated 30-10-2006:-
(1)
Whether the departmental inquiry conducted by Management against the workman is
proper and legal. If not, whether the Management is entitled to prove the misconduct of
workman?
(2) To what relief if any, the workman is entitled?
5.
Issue No.1 was taken as preliminary issue by my learned Predecessor. Parties were required to lead
their respective evidence on preliminary issue. The workman and Management examined their witness and
proved the inquiry papers.
6.
Vide his order dated 11-11-2013 my learned Predecessor held the departmental inquiry against the
workman not legal and proper
7.
The Management preferred a Writ Petition No.8800/2014 which was dismissed by Hon’ble Court vide
order dated 5-10-2016.
8.
Thereafter the Management was given a chance to prove the charges but no evidence at all was
adduced by Management. The workman also did not adduce any evidence.
9.
I have heard arguments of learned Counsel Shri Uttam Maheshwari for workman and Shri S.K.Mishra
for Management and have gone through the record. The following issues come up for determination:-
(1)
Whether the Management is an industry as defined in Industrial Disputes Act,1947?
(2)
Whether the charges against the workman are proved?
(3)
Whether the workman is entitled to any relief?
10.
ISSUE NO.1:- Learned Counsel for the Management has referred to decision of Hon’ble Karnataka
High Court in the case of the Superintendent of Post Offices, Vs. H.B.Shivanna passed in Writ Petition
No.34051/2017. IN this case Hon’ble High Court of Karnataka held that since there are separate rules for
recruitment, service and removal of extra departmental sub post-office master, Branch Post-office Master,
delivery Agents and Stamp Vendors they are not workman as defined under Section 2(J) of the Industrial
Disputes Act,1947. In the case in hand also, the workman is an extra departmental post master, hence in the light
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2397
of law laid down by Hon’ble High Court, he is held not to be a workman as defined under Section 2(J) of the
Industrial Disputes Act,1947. Issue No.1 is answered accordingly.
11.
ISSUE NO.2:- As established above, the departmental inquiry has been held against law by my learned
Predecessor and this order has been up held by Hon’ble High court. Thereafter the burden was on management
to prove the charge. The management has not led any evidence. According to the management , since the case
is old the records and witnesses are not available as they have retired, dead or untraceable. Learned Counsel for
the management has referred to the statement of the workman on oath recorded during the hearing of
preliminary issue regarding legality of departmental inquiry, wherein he stated that he could not credit the
amount in the account of account holders due to mistake as he was overburdened and thereafter he deposited the
entire amount with interest. Accounting the learned counsel for Management, this confession of the workman is
sufficient to prove him guilty for the charge of misconduct. I do not subscribe to this argument because his
statement regarding his admission of his guilt will be taken as a whole. He also says that it was a bonafide
mistake on his part. Hence, in these circumstances, the charge against the workman is held not proved. Issue
No.2 is answered accordingly.
12.
ISSUE NO.3:- IN the light of findings recorded on Issue No.1, the workman is held entitled to no
relief. The Issue No.3 is answered accordingly.
13.
On the basis of the above discussion, following award is passed:-
A.
The action of the management of Senior Suptd. Of Post Offices, Jabalpur Sambhag,
Jabalpur in terminating the services of Sh. Kishanlal Mehra, Extra Departmental Delivery
Agent w.e.f. 1/6/98 is held to be legal and justified.
B.
The workman is held entitled to no relief.
14.
Let the copies of the award be sent to the Government of India, Ministry of Labour & Employment as
per rules.

(Passed on 5-4-2022)
As per letter dated 4-12-2018 by the Government of India, Ministry of Labour, New Delhi, the
reference is received. The reference is made to this Tribunal under Section -10 of I.D.Act, 1947 as per
Notification No.L-42012/121/2018-IR(DU). The dispute under reference relates to:

The workman never appeared inspite of service of notice on him and nor has filed any written
statement of claim.

AWARD
(Passed on 7-9-2022)
As per letter dated 22/9/2015 by the Government of India, Ministry of Labour, New Delhi, the
reference is received. The reference is made to this Tribunal under Section -10 of I.D.Act, 1947 as per
Notification No.l-40012/33/2015-IR(DU). The dispute under reference relates to:
“Kya shri Milind Hardikar, Malik Milind Constructin 233 Mahashweta Nagar Ujain dwara Shri
Gobardhan Lal, s/o shri Thawar Lal ko lambe samay tak kam kara kar odyogek veveadh Adhiniyar

1.
After registering the case on the basis of reference, notices were sent to the parties. Both the parties
appeared and have filed their respective statement of claim/defence.
2.
In short the claim of the workman is that he was a daily wager and worked continuously for 240 days
in every year including the year preceding the date of his termination. He has claimed that he was retrenched
without giving him any notice or compensation, thus the termination of the workman is in violation of the
Industrial dispute Rules,1947 and is bad in law.
3.
The Management has denied the claim that the workman ever completed 240 days in any calendar year
in continuous engagement of the Management.
4.
At the stage of evidence, the workman did not appear and nor was he present at the time of argument.
He never filed any documents with respect of his claim.
5.
On the other hand the Management filed affidavit of its witness Smt. Deepmati Shukla, Assistant
General Manager, BSNL,Ujjain. The Management witness has supported the case of Management in its
affidavit which is uncontroverted.

[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
6.
The Management was represented by its learned counsel Shri R.S.Khare. Since none was present for
the workman at the time of argument, ex-parte argument of Management counsel was heard.
7.
I have gone through the record.
8.
The reference is the point for determination in the case in hand.
9.
In the light of the above facts and circumstances stated above there is nothing on record to hold the
claim of workman proved as the workman has miserably failed to discharge his burden in this case. Hence
holding the claim of the workman not proved the reference deserves to be answered against the workman.
10.
On the basis of the above discussion, following award is passed:-
A. The action of the management as mentioned in the reference is held to be just and proper.
B. The workman is held entitled to no relief.
11.
Let the copies of the award be sent to the Government of India, Ministry of Labour & Employment as
per rules.

AWARD
(Passed on 26/7/2022)
As per letter dated 9/2/2001 by the Government of India, Ministry of Labour, New Delhi, the reference
is received. The reference is made to this Tribunal under Section -10 of I.D.Act, 1947 as per Notification No.L-
40012/538/2000-IR(DU). The dispute under reference relates to:
“Whether the action of the management of Junior Telecom Engineer, Biaora in terminating the
services of Shri Israr Ahmed S/o Abdul Aziz w.e.f. April’94 is justified? If not, to what relief the
workman is entitled? .”
1.
After registering the case on the basis of reference, notices were sent to the parties. Both the parties
have filed their respective statement of claim/defence.
2.
The case of the workman as stated in his statement of claim is that he was engaged as a helper by
Management in the year January 1987 and continued till April 1994 when his services were terminated by the
Management without any notice or compensation though he worked for more than 240 days continuously in
every year including the year preceding the date of his termination. Thus his termination is violative of Section
25F of the Industrial Disputes Act,1947. The workman has prayed that setting aside his termination, he be
reinstated with back wages and benefits.
3.
According to the management, the workman was engaged as a casual labour in the year 1987 by
Management for specific period and specific work, with a condition that his services has come to an end
automatically after completion of the work. He was not engaged on regular basis, against any vacant sanctioned
post or by following rules and procedure of recruitment. He never worked for 240 days or more continuously in
any year including the year preceding the date of his termination, hence, his dis-engagement without notice or
compensation is not against law. The management has prayed that the reference be answered against the
workman.
4.
The Workman has filed his affidavit as his examination-in-chief. He has proved his Employment
Exchange Card as Exhibit W-1. He has not been cross-examined by the Management. The management has
filed earlier affidavit of Shailendra Surjan S.D.E. Administration but could not produce him for cross-
examination, hence ultimately filed Affidavit of its witness Mohd. Feroz Ahmed , Assistant General Manager
Legal and has been cross-examined by the workman.
5.
I have heard arguments of Shri Arun Patel, learned counsel for the workman. None was present from
the side of the Management. They were given opportunity to file written Argument, which they did not avail . I
have gone through the record.
6.
The reference is the issue for determination in the case in hand.
7.
Before entering into any discussion on merit, Section 25B and Section 25F of the Industrial Disputes
Act,1947 is required to be produced here:-
Section 25 B:-
Definition of continuous service.-
(1) a workman shall be said to be in continuous service for a period if he is, for that period, in
uninterrupted service, including service which may be interrupted on account of sickness or
authorised leave or an accident or a strike which is not illegal, or a lock-out or a cessation of
work which is not due to any fault on the part of the workman; (2) where a workman is not in
continuous service within the meaning of clause (1) for a period of one year or six months, he
shall be deemed to be in continuous service under an employer- (a) for a period of one year, if the
workman, during a period of twelve calendar months preceding the date with reference to which
calculation is to be made, has actually worked under the employer for not less than- (i) one
hundred and ninety days in the case of a workman employed below ground in a mine; and (ii)
two hundred and forty days, in any other case; (b) for a period of six months, if the workman,
during a period of six calendar months preceding the date with reference to which calculation is
to be made, has actually worked under the employer for not less than- (i) ninety-five days, in the
case of a workman employed below ground in a mine; and (ii) one hundred and twenty days, in
any other case.
25F. Conditions precedent to retrenchment of workmen.- No workman employed in any industry
who has been in continuous service for not less than one year under an employer shall be
retrenched by that employer until- (a) the workman has been given one month's notice in
2402 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
writing indicating the reasons for retrenchment and the period of notice has expired, or the
workman has been paid in lieu of such notice, wages for the period of the notice: 1[***] (b) the
workman has been paid, at the time of retrenchment, compensation which shall be equivalent to
fifteen days' average pay 2[for every completed year of continuous service] or any part thereof in
excess of six months; and (c) notice in the prescribed manner is served on the appropriate
Government 3[or such authority as may be specified by the appropriate Government by
notification in the Official Gazette.]
8.
The initial burden to prove his continuous engagement for 240 days or more in any year lies on the
workman. The workman has examined himself and has stated that he worked for 240 days in every year till the
date of his termination. He has not been cross-examined by Management. On the other hand, the Management
witness, though has stated in his cross-examination in form of affidavit that the workman never worked
continuously for 240 days or more in any year but in his cross-examination, he admitted that he was never
posted in the office where the workman worked. He never saw the muster roll for the said period. He further
states that he has prepared his affidavit on the basis of earlier affidavit kept in the file. Also that he did not
produce any document to support that the workman had worked continuously for 240 days or more in any year .
9.
Learned Counsel for the workman has referred to judgment of Hon. The Apex Court in the case of
Director Fisheries Terminal Division Vs. Bhikubhai Meghajibhai Chavda AIR(2010) SC 1236 wherein it
has been held that the workman was engaged on daily wage basis and he would have difficulty in accessing the
office documents like muster roll etc. when the workman claims and disposes that he has worked for 240 days
the burden shifts to employer to prove that he did not work for 240 days or more in that year.
10.
In another judgment Gauri Shanker Vs. State of Rajasthan(2015) 12 SCC 754, it has been held by
Hon’ble the Apex Court that withholding of documents i.e. muster roll by the employer may result into drawing
adverse inference against the Management. In the light of law laid down by Hon’ble the Apex Court in the case
cited above, the claim of the workman that he continuously worked for 240 days and more in every year
including the year of his dis-engagement is held proved. Admittedly since no notice or compensation was given
at the time of dis-engagement, the termination of the workman is held violative of the Section 25F of the Act.
11.
In the light of the finding recorded above, the question arises as to what relief the workman is entitled
since the workman was not appointed following any recruitment procedure against sanctioned vacancy, his
reinstatement will not be legally admissible remedy. Accordingly he is held entitled to compensation keeping in
view the tenure of his engagement and other facts and circumstances mentioned here in the case in hand , a
lump sum compensation in lieu of his claims computed at Rs.50,000/-(Rupees Fifty Thousand only) will meet
the ends of justice to which the workman is held entitled to recover within 30 days from the date of notification
of the Award in official gazette failing which interest @ 6% per annum from the date of publication of Award
till the date of receipt of Award.
12.
On the basis of the above discussion, following award is passed:-
A. The action of the management of Junior Telecom Engineer, Biaora in terminating the
services of Shri Israr Ahmed S/o Abdul Aziz w.e.f. April’94 is held to be unjustified.
B. The workman is held entitled to a lump sum compensation in lieu of his claims computed at
Rs.50,000/-(Rupees Fifty Thousand only) to which the workman is held entitled to recover
within 30 days from the date of notification of the Award in official gazette failing which
interest @ 6% per annum from the date of publication of Award till the date of payment.
13.
Let the copies of the award be sent to the Government of India, Ministry of Labour & Employment as
per rules.

AWARD
(Passed on 22/7/2022)
As per letter dated 16/1/2006 by the Government of India, Ministry of Labour, New Delhi, the
reference is received. The reference is made to this Tribunal under Section -10 of I.D.Act, 1947 as per
Notification No.L-40012/105/2005-IR(DU). The dispute under reference relates to:
“Whether the action of the management of Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd. Bhopal in terminating the
services instead of regularising Shri Prahlad and Others (List enclosed) who were engaged during
1977 to 1990 and have reportedly worked for 240 days continuously is legal and justified? If not, to
what relief the workman are entitled?” .”
1.
After registering the case on the basis of reference, notices were sent to the parties. Both the parties
have filed their respective statement of claim/defence.
2.
The case of the workman as stated in his statement of claim is that he and others who were engaged
during 1977 to 1990 worked continuously for 240 days and more in every year. They were retrenched without
issuing any notice or paying any compensation which is in violation of Section 25F of the Industrial Disputes
Act,1947. Since the Management did not seek any permission for retrenchment as provided under Section 25N
of the Industrial Disputes Act,1947(hereinafter referred to as the word ‘Act’) on this score also the termination
is bad in law. Further, the Management did not follow the principles of last come and first go on this score also
his termination is bad in law being violative of Section 25G & Section 25H of the Act.
3.
The case of the Management in brief is that the workman never disclosed as to where and in which
unit, at what place and under which office he has worked as claimed by him, hence in absence of specific
details, the management is not in a positon to put its specific case, however the management has specifically
denied that the workman has worked for 240 days or more in any year. The management has further denied
violation of Section 25N, 25G and 25H of the Act. Accordingly, the Management has prayed that the reference
be answered against the workman.
4.
The workman has filed his affidavit as his examination in Chief. He has been cross-examined by
Management . He has proved Exhibit W-1.
2404 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
5.
The Management has filed affidavit of Shri N.K.Nandanwar, Assistant General Manager, Legal but he
never appeared for cross-examination.
6.
At the time of argument, none appeared for oral arguments. None of the parties filed any written
statement. I have perused the record.
7.
The reference itself is the issue for determination in the case in hand.
8.
Before proceedings, Section 25B, 25F and 25G, 25H and Section 25N of the Industrial Disputes
Act,1947 requires to be reproduced below, which is as follows:-

enquiry as it thinks fit and after giving a reasonable opportunity of being heard to the employer,

be deemed to be illegal from the date on which the notice of retrenchment was given to the
workman and the workman shall be entitled to all the benefits under any law for the time being
in force as if no notice had been given to him. (8) Notwithstanding anything contained in the
foregoing provisions of this section, the appropriate Government may, if it is satisfied that owing
to such exceptional circumstances as accident in the establishment or death of the employer or
the like, it is necessary so to do, by order, direct, that the provisions of sub- section (1) shall not

Where permission for retrenchment has been granted under sub-section (3) or where permission
for retrenchment is deemed to be granted under sub-section (4), every workman who is employed
in that establishment immediately before the date of application for permission under this section
shall be entitled to receive, at the time of retrenchment, compensation which shall be equivalent
to fifteen days’ average pay for every completed year of continuous service or any part thereof in
excess of six months.
9.
The question now arises whether the workman has specifically proved his continuous engagement for
240 days and more in the year preceding the date of his dis-engagement. In his affidavit, the workman has
stated that he was employed w.e.f. 16-12-1984 and his services were terminated from 20-4-1990. He was
serving as a casual mazdoor and worked with the SDO Mandla and SDO Jabalpur under the BSNL and has
continuously worked for a period of more than 240 days preceding the date of his termination. His services
were terminated without any notice or compensation. In cross-examination he has admitted that he was never
issued an appointment letter. He was also never issued a termination letter. He worked on muster roll. He has
proved Exhibit W-1 which is list of co-workers attached with the reference order.
10.
None of his co-workers have appeared nor have filed any statement of application. Hence only the
self-serving statement of the workman Prahlad cannot be held sufficient to hold the factum of continuous
employment of 240 days proved, keeping in mind that the initial burden to prove this fact is on the workman.
Since the factum of continuous engagement of 240 days in the year preceding the date of his dis-engagement is
not proved, his dis-engagement if any cannot be held violative of Section 25F or Section 25N of the Industrial
DisputesACt,1947 as regards violation of Section 25G and Section 25F, the affidavit of workman is silent on
this point. Hence has case on this point is also held not proved.
11.
Furthermore, according to the workman, he was dis-engaged in the year 1990. The reference has been
made in the year 2006. The workman does not discloses as to when he raised dispute for the first time. The
dispute is before this Tribunal after 16 years of alleged termination which is highly delayed, particularly when
there is no explanation regarding this delay.
12.
Additionally the reference does not disclose the specific date of engagement and specific date of
alleged termination of the workman. They are as many as 90 workman in the list attached with the reference.
The workman Prahlad also does not discloses any specific date in his statement of claim/statement on oath,
hence the reference is also vague and is held accordingly.
13.
In the light of the above discussion, the reference needs to be answered against the workman.
14.
On the basis of the above discussion, following award is passed:-

[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]

and justified.
B. The workmen are held entitled to no relief.

AWARD
1.
By order No. L-42012/5/2008-IR(DU) dated 11.03.2008 the Central Government in the Ministry of
Labour, New Delhi in exercise of powers conferred by clause (d) of sub section (1) and sub section (2A) of
Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (14 of 1947) referred this industrial dispute for adjudication to
this CGIT-cum-Labour Court, Kanpur.
2.
The reference under adjudication is:
“WHETHER THE CONTRACT BETWEEN THE MANAGEMENT OF CENTRAL BOARD OF
SECONDARY EDUCATION AND THEIR CONTRACTOR M/S MANPOWER SERVICES AND
SECURITY, WITH REGARD TO ENGAGEMENT OF SHRI UMA SHANKER PANDEY IS SHAM AND
ONLY SMOKE SCREEN? IF YES, THEN WHETHER THE ACTION OF THE PRINCIPAL
EMPLOYER, AND IF NOT, THEN WHETHER THE ACTION OF THE CONTRACTOR, IN
TERMINATING THE SERVICES OF THE SAID WORKMAN W.E.F. 30.12.99 IS LEGAL AND
JUSTIFIED? IF NOT, TO WHAT RELIEF THE WORKMAN IS ENTITLED TO?”
3.
The case of the workman, Uma Shanker Pandey, in brief, is that he was engaged by the management on
02.04.1996 as Junior Assistant at initial pay of Rs. 4000/- per month, which was enhanced from time to time and
was getting @ Rs. 3000/- per month at the time of his oral termination w.e.f. 31.12.1999. The workman has
submitted that the M/s Manpower Security Services never supplied man power to the Principal Employer i.e.
CBSE Board; rather the M/s Manpower Security Services did not participate in the conciliation proceedings and
the name of M/s Manpower Security Services has been brought to the array of opposite parties just to defeat the
claim of the workman. The workman has submitted that he worked continuously since his engagement for more
than 240 days; however, his services have been terminated on 30.12.1999 without any notice/notice pay, charge
sheet/enquiry or any retrenchment compensation or assigning any reason in violation to the provisions contained
in Sections 25 F of the Industrial Disputes Act; and accordingly, he has prayed that his termination be declared
illegal and he be reinstated with consequential benefits including full back wages.
4.
The management of CBSE Board has filed its written statement denying the claim of the workman.
The management has pleaded that the opposite party is not an industry as defined under Section 2(j) of the I.D.
Act. The management has referred to the pronouncement of Hon’ble Supreme Court in AIR 1963, SC 1873.
The management has submitted that the appointments are being made in accordance with the appointment rules;
however, in exigencies of work, a contract agreement of work for a specified period was entered into with M/s
Man Power Services & Security, Allabahad for completion of certain work and the said contract came to an end
on completion of contract period. The management has stated that the persons engaged by the contractor for
completing work assigned to it, though working in the office of the Board, were supervised, controlled and paid
their wages by the contractor. It is submitted by the management that the services of the workman had never
been terminated by it at any point of time; rather the services of the workman who was an employee of the
contractor had come to an end with the completion of the contract period, therefore, the alleged termination of
the workman does not attract violation of any of the provisions of Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 at the part of the
Board. Accordingly, the management of the Board has prayed that the claim of the workman be rejected being
devoid of any merit.
5.
The workman has filed his rejoinder wherein apart from reiterating the averments already made in the
statement of claim it has submitted that the management has inducted name of the contractor just to deprive the
workman of his legitimate rights; whereas he worked with the opposite parties under their direct control and was
being paid salary by the opposite party itself. It has also been submitted by the workman that the so called
contractor did not have any license to supply labourers in capacity of Office Assistant cadre; however, the
contractor may supply labourers for security only.
6.
The parties filed documentary as well as oral evidence in support of their rival pleadings. The
workman examined himself whereas the management examined Shri Vijay Singh, Section Officer (Legal) in
support of their case. The parties availed opportunity to cross-examine witness of each other apart from
submitting oral as well as written submissions.
7.
Heard learned counsel of the parties at length and perused entire evidence available on record.
8.
The learned counsel of the workman has argued that the workman had been engaged by the
management on 02.04.1996 as Junior Assistant and he worked accordingly upto 30.12.1999 when his services
had been terminated orally without assigning any rhyme or reason or serving any notice or notice party, in
2408 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
violation to the provisions contained in Section 25 F of the Act. It has also been contended by the learned
counsel that the contractor viz. M/s Manpower Security Services never supplied man power to the Principal
Employer i.e. CBSE Board; moreover, M/s Manpower Security Services did not participate in the conciliation
proceedings and the name of M/s Manpower Security Services has been brought to the array of opposite parties
just to deprive the workman of his legitimate rights. The authorized representative of the workman has also
contended that the so called contractor did not have any license for labour supply as well and the
contract/agreement, relied upon by the management is not in respect of Junior Assistant; hence, the same is
sham and bogus. He has vehemently contended that the agreement is not specific and does not match with the
period of engagement of the workman, therefore, the same is not applicable in respect of the workman. He has
relied upon:
(i)
Bhuvnesh Kumar Dwivedi vs Hindalco Industries Ltd. 2014 STPL (Web) 337 SC
(ii)
Hon’ble Supreme Court in Secretary, H.S.E.B. vs Suresh & Ors Etc. decided on 30.03.1999.
(iii) Bhilwara Dugdh Utpadak Sahakari S. Ltd. vs. Vinod Kumar Sharma AIR (SCW)-2011-0-5288
(iv) Hon’ble Supreme Court in G.B. Pant University of Agriculture & Technology, Pantnagar vs.
State of Uttar Pradesh & ors. decided on 10.08.2000.
(v)
Hon’ble Supreme Court in Bharat Heavy Electrical Ltd vs State of U.P. and ors. decided on
21.07.2003.
(vi) Bank of Baroda vs Ghemarbhai Harjibhai Rabari AIR (SCW)-2005-0-1817.
9.
In rebuttal, the learned counsel of the management has argued that the opposite party is not an industry
as defined under Section 2(j) of the I.D. Act. The learned counsel has also submitted that the appointments in
the opposite party establishment are being made in accordance with the appointment rules and the workman had
never been appointed in consonance with the recruitment rules. The learned counsel has submitted that in
exigencies of work, a contract agreement of work for a specified period was entered into with M/s Man Power
Services & Security, Allahabad for completion of certain work and the said contract came to an end on
completion of contract period and the persons engaged by the contractor for completing work assigned to it,
though working in the office of the Board, were supervised, controlled and paid their wages by the contractor
and their engagement automatically came to an end with the end of contract entered between the management of
the Board and the contractor viz. M/s Man Power Services & Security, Allahabad. The authorized
representative of the management has vehemently argued that the management of the Board never terminated
the services of the workman at any point of time; rather the services of the workman who was an employee of
the contractor had come to an end with the completion of the contract period, therefore, the alleged termination
of the workman does not attract violation of any of the provisions of Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 at the part of
the Board.
10.
I have given my thoughtful consideration to the rival contention of parties and scanned entire evidence
available on record in light thereto.
11.
The management has raised preliminary objection regarding maintainability of the case with
submissions that the CBSE Board is discharging sovereign function and accordingly it is not an ‘industry’
within the purview of the Section 2 (j) of the Act. Hon’ble Apex Court in AIR 1978 Supreme Court 548
Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board vs. A. Rajappa and others case; wherein it has been observed that
“absence of profit motive on gainful objective is irrelevant, be the venture in the public, joint, private
or other sector.”
Hon’ble Apex Court has further observed that
“Where (i) systematic activity (ii) organized by co-operation between employer and employee (the
direct and substantial element is commercial (iii) for the production and/or distribution of goods and
services calculated to satisfy human wants and wishes (not spiritual or religions but inclusive of
material things or services geared to celestial bliss i.e. making on a large scale Prasad or food) prima
facie, there is an industry in that enterprise.”
It is well known that the Education Boards across the country do the work of imparting education and
they act as regulatory bodies to hold examination; and it charges the fee for the same. The opposite party was
not discharging sovereign function at all; rather it is at par with other educational institutions and private
universities. Also, it has indicated that the nature of work carried out by the CBSE Board well qualifies the
triple test, formulated by Hon’ble Apex Court in Bangalore Water Supply case. Thus, the in view of facts and
circumstances of the case and above legal propositions, I am of considered opinion that CBSE Board, is an
industry within the definition of ‘industry’ as provided u/s 2 (j) of the Act.
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2409
12.
The management of the CBSE Board has also pleaded that the workman had been engaged through a
contractor viz. M/s Man Power Services & Security, Allahabad and the payment was used to be made to the
contractor who paid to the workman. However, the workman has pleaded that he has been paid by the
management and the services for which agreement was entered into was not for office work rather it was for
security purposes. The management has filed photocopy of agreement dated 01.01.1999 entered with the
contractor in support of its contentions, Annexure – 2 to the written statement. A close scrutiny of the
agreement dated 01.01.1999 reveals that the said agreement has been entered into between the CBSE Board and
the contractor viz. M/s Man Power Services & Security, Allahabad for supply of specific services for specific
period of time. The relevant para of the agreement dated 01.01.1999 is reproduced hereunder:
“Man Power Services & Security shall provide the number of security personnel as desired and
required by the Board from time to time. Any reduction (with sufficient notice) and replacement in the
staff provided by Man Power Services & Security can be done by the Board.
18.
The validity of this contract will be for a period of one year from Ist January, 1999 or date of
commencement of work whichever is earlier to 31st December, 1999. The Agreement can be
terminated at any time on giving a written notice of one month from either side PROVIDED THAT
THE BOARD shall have the option to renew or continue this agreement on the same terms and
conditions for a further period of one year, at a time from the date of expiry thereof.
The charges to be paid for security personnel for 8 hours shift duty per month be as under:-
(a)
Supervisor (1)
Rs. 2774.00
(b)
Security Guards
Rs. 2058.53 each
(c)
Sweeper
Rs. 2058.53
(d)
Mali
Rs. 2058.53
(e)
Electrician
Rs. 2774.00”
Thus, going through the above quoted portion of the agreement dated 01.01.1999, it is crystal clear that
the agreement in question was for specific period i.e. from 01.01.1999 to 31.12.1999; whereas the alleged
engagement of the workman was for their period 02.04.1996 to 30.12.1999. Likewise, the it is pleaded by the
workman that he was engaged in clerical nature of work and working as Junior Assistant; but there is no such
mention in the agreement under question. The management witness, Shri Vijay Singh during his cross-
examination stated that “they did not obtain any license being principal employer”. The management has filed
photocopy of attendance sheet for the month of May and June, 1998 which finds reference of workman at serial
number 03, which indicates engagement of the workman with the opposite party Board. Also, there is no
agreement on record for the period the attendance sheet has been filed by the management
13.
Also, the workman has contended that the contractor did not had any license to supply labourers to the
principal employer. There is no iota of evidence in this regard that either the Board had registration as principal
employer or the contractor had any license to supply labourers to the principal employer. However, from
pleadings and evidence relied upon by the parties, it is established that the workman was engaged through the
contractor to carry out the work perennial in nature and that contract too was for limited period i.e. from
01.01.1999 to 31.12.1999 only; and in absence of any registration of the Board as principal employer or the
contractor viz. M/s Man Power Services & Security, Allahabad had license for labour supply, making the so
called contract between the Board and the so called contractor mere camouflage.
14.
It may be correct that the Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) Act, 1970 was violated by the
opposite party/CBSE. It may also be correct to assert that record preservation guidelines have not been duly
followed by the CBSE authority before destruction of the records pertaining to the engagement of claimant,
Uma Shanker Pandey in the establishment of the opposite party/CBSE; but it cannot be concluded that for above
stated lapses Uma Shanker Pandey shall be accepted as employee of the CBSE as such conclusion will amount
to back door entry into one Government Institution, which is also governed by Recruitment Rules a found from
the record. Needless to say back door entry with regard to employment has been negated by the Judgement of
the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of 2006 (4) SCC 1 Secretary, State of Karnataka & others vs Uma Devi.
15.
It is seen that Shri Uma Shanker Pandey, claimant had worked under CBSE from 01.04.1996 to
30.12.1999 under such scenario, in view of the case laws, 2021 LLR 1035 (SC) Ram Manohar Lohia Joint
Hospital & ors. vs. Munna Prasad Saini & another; and 2018 LLR 12 85 (SC) Management of Hindustan
Machine Tools Limited vs. Ghanshyam Sharma, the claimant, Uma Shanker Pandey is entitled to get
compensation instead of reinstatement, regularization with back wages.
16.
The disengagement occurred about twenty years back and at this distant point of time adequacy of
compensation cannot be computed with mathematical exactitude. The compensation can be reasonably
quantified by guess work.
2410 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
17.
Having regards to these facts that the workman has worked as casual worker for 03 years and 09
months i.e. from 02.04.1996 to 30.12.1999 and he was getting Rs. 4000/- per month at the time of his alleged
termination and keeping in view the entire facts of the case and the law, the interest of justice would be
subserved, if, management of the C.B.S.E. is directed to pay lump sum amount of compensation only.
18.
Accordingly, the management of the C.B.S.E. is directed to pay a sum of Rs. 1,00,000/- (Rupees One
Lakh only) to the workman as compensation for termination of his services in violation of section 25 F of the
I.D. Act. The said amount shall be paid to the workman within 08 weeks of publication of the award, failing
which; the same shall carry simple interest @ 6% per annum.
19.
The reference under adjudication is answered accordingly.
20.
Award as above.

AWARD
(Passed on this 19th day of October-2022)
1.
As per letter dated 19/09/2016 by the Government of India, Ministry of Labour, New Delhi, the
reference is received. The reference is made to this Tribunal under Section 10 of I.D. Act, 1947 as per
Notification No. L-42011/90/2016-IR(DU). The dispute under reference relates to:
“Whether Shri Sanjeev Kumar Shrivastava who is performing the duties of Assistant Librarian-
III Assistant Grade III, being paid only Class-IV wages by Dr. Hari Singh Gour University,
Sagar. Whether he is entitled for permanent classification with Class-III Wages, in the post of
Assistant Grade-III/Assistant Librarian-Ill with Grade pay of Rs. 4200/- pm w.ef 17/07/2009
along with arrears or not?"
1.
After registering the case on the basis of reference, notices were sent to the parties. Both the parties
have filed their statement of claim/defense.
2.
The case of the workman Union, as put up in their statement of claim, is that is an Association of
persons working for the protection of the interest of employees working for the University. It has authority to
raise a dispute and contest the case on behalf of the workman who has is a member of the Union. The workman
was initially appointed as Data Entry Operator and continued as daily wager/muster roll employee, grade three
post since his initial appointment in the year 1997. He approached the Hon’ble High Court of M.P,. when there
was reduction of pay by way of a writ petition. Hon’ble High court directed the University to give benefit of
minimum pay scale notified to the post . The University was declared a Central University vide Central
University Act 2009. Before that, it was a State University as per provisions of M.P. Vishswavidyaklaya
Adhiniyam 1973. The workman was initially appointed as a Data entry operator on 10-5-1997 in the
Department of Central Instrumental Lab and started discharging his duties as Assistant Librarian. Lastly, he has
been shifted to department of Education on 2-8-2016. The said appointment was with the prior approval after
creation of the post. The said workman has been continuously working since the date of his first appointment on
May-1997 till date and discharging his duties allotted by the University.
3.
According to the workman Union, the duties which were discharged by the applicant workman is of
Class-iii post in the University. When the University was a State University. a resolution was passed by the
Executive Council of the University in its meeting dated 1-5-2008 by exercising powers under Section 24 of the
M.P. Vishwavidyalaya Adhiniyam,1973. It was resolved that all the daily wagers/muster roll employees,
employed will be entitled to minimum of pay and scale and allowances which is applicable to the Grades in
which they were discharging their duties. The Executive council further adopted the recommendation of other
pay recommendations of Teachers/Officers and employees vide its resolution dated 22-8-2009. The University
was declared a Central University with the passage of notification of Central Universities Act,2009. Section 4D
of this Act provided that every person earlier employed by the University shall hold his office on same
remuneration and terms and conditions and rules and privileges unless it is altered in consequence with the
statutory rights. The Applicant Workman and the other similarly situated employees who were required to
discharge duties equivalent to Class-III employees were illegally downgraded to Class-IV employees. It is
further the case of the workman Union that the university has not recruited regular employees in Class-III and
Class-IV for the last several years and this work is being discharged by applicant workman and other similarly
situated workman even today also. Hence, the action of the University denying standard classification pay scale
of Grade-III to employees and making payment to all at the same rate of pay irrespective of work discharged by
them is illegal and arbitrary. It is in this back drop that Hon’ble High Court of M.P. directed the University to
pay the applicant workman and similarly situated petitioners minimum pay in the scale of pay notified for the
post against which they are discharging their duties vide its order dated 26-9-2011 passed in W.P.No.4520/2010.
This order has been affirmed by Hon’ble the High Court vide its order dated 26-7-2013 passed in
S.L.P.No.18342-43/2013. Further it has been stated that in order to circumvent the order of Hon’ble High Court
and Hon. Supreme Court, the University has not carried proper classification and fitment . Since the applicant
workman is discharging duties ever since March-2000 on the post of Assistant Librarian, he has not been given
proper classification and fitment and deprived them of all the benefits which is violation of standard order
applicable over the University. Accordingly, it has been prayed that holding the applicant workman entitled for
permanent classification in Grade-III for the post of Assistant Librarian, Grade-II and III with Grade Pay Scale
of Rs.4200/- per month w.e.f. completion of six months from the date of completion of six months of his
application or since 17-7-2009 with arrears and interest.

[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
4.
IN the written statement of defence by the University, it has been pleaded that the allegation of the
workman that he is discharging his duties on vacant and sanctioned post is incorrect. To obtain the status of a
permanent employee a person must be employed in terms of statutory rules. The applicant workman was simply
a daily wager/temporary employee who cannot hold the post unless he is appointment in terms of the Act and
rules framed there under. An appointment may in violation of mandatory provisions of a statute is nullity. A
persons appointed in such a manner cannot claim any benefit and rights regarding regularization and
permanency in service in the light of Principle laid down in the case of State of Karnataka & Another Vs.
Uma Devi and Others(2006) 4 SCC 1. As regards the order of Hon’ble High Court and Hon’ble the Apex
Court directing minimum pay in the scale , it is the case of the Management that the this order has been
complied with by the management of University. The Competent Authority in the University has constituted a
Committee to examine the case of daily wagers/muster roll employees discharging the duties of Class-III and
on the basis of the records available the daily wage and muster roll employees have been given pay entitled to
Class-III employees and Dearness Allowance. Accordingly the management has requested that the reference be
answered against the workman Union.
5.
The workman Union has filed a rejoinder wherein it has denied the case of management and has further
reiterated its case.
6.
The workman has filed vide list 50 documents and has proved as Exhibit W01 to W-50, to be referred
to as and when required. The workman Union has further filed and proved photocopy of marksheets and service
related documents of the workman Sanjeev Kumar Shrivastav which are Exhibit W-51 to W-65, to be referred
to as and when required.
7.
The workman Union has filed affidavit as his examination in chief . Opportunity of cross-examination
of this witness was given to management . They did not avail this opportunity, hence opportunity of cross-
examination of this witness is closed.
8.
The management has not examined any witness, rather it has filed two photocopy office orders dated
5-5-2014 and 2-11-2016 both admitted by workman Union, marked as Exhibit M1 to M2 respectively.
9.
I have heard arguments of Mr. Uttam Maheshwari, learned counsel for the workman Union. The
management did not appear at the time of arguments. The workman Union has filed written arguments also
which is part of the record. No written arguments has been filed by the Management. I have gone through the
record as well.
10.
On perusal of record in the light of arguments, the following points/issues come up for
determination :-
1)
Whether the University Dr. Hari Singh Gaur University is an industry as defined under
Section 2(J) and the applicant workman is a workman as defined in Section 2(s) of the of
the Industrial Disputes Act,1947?
2.
Whether the applicant workman was recruited as a daily wager/muster roll employee
against sanctioned vacancy, following recruitment procedure and also whether he had
the requisite qualification for the job he was recruited?
3.
Whether the workman has been in continuous service of the management from the date
of his first appointment till date?
4.
Whether the applicant workman is entitled to be classified as Category-3/Class-III
employee for the post of Assistant Librarian/Assistant Grade-III , if yes from which
date?
5.
Whether the applicant workman is entitled to relief if any?
11. ISSUE NO.1:-
Before proceeding it is necessary to enumerate Section 2(J) and Section 2(S) of the Industrial Disputes
Act,1947 as below:-
Section 2(S)-
“workman” means any person (including an apprentice) employed in any industry to do any
manual, unskilled, skilled, technical, operational, clerical or supervisory work for hire or reward,
whether the terms of employment be express or implied, and for the purposes of any proceeding
under this Act in relation to an industrial dispute, includes any such person who has been
dismissed, discharged or retrenched in connection with, or as a consequence of, that dispute, or
whose dismissal, discharge or retrenchment has led to that dispute, but does not include any such
person-
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]

2417
(i)
who is subject to the Air Force Act, 1950 (45 of 1950), or the Army Act, 1950 (46 of

(ii)
who is employed in the police service or as an officer or other employee of a prison, or
(iii)
who is employed mainly in a managerial or administrative capacity, or
(iv)
who, being employed in a supervisory capacity, draws wages exceeding one thousand six
hundred rupees per mensum or exercises, either by the nature of the duties attached to
the office or by reason of the powers vested in him, functions mainly of a managerial
nature.] 2(j) “industry” means any business, trade, undertaking, manufacture or calling
of employers and includes any calling, service, employment, handicraft, or industrial
occupation or avocation of workmen;
12.
In the case of Rajkumar Vs. Director Education Civil appeal No.1020/2011 Hon’ble the Apex Court
has held that educational institution is industry as defined under Section 2(J) of the Act. As regards the
University, Hon’ble the Apex court has referred to the Judgment of Seven Judges Bench in the case of
Bangalore Water Suppy & Sewarage Board Vs. R.Rajappa and Others , (1978) Scr (3) 207, the relevant
portion is being reproduced as follows:-
“The issue whether educational institution is an ‘industry’, and its employees are ‘workmen’ for 4
(1997) 5 SCC 737 ,the purpose of the ID Act has been answered by a Seven-judge Bench of this Court
way back in the year 1978 in the case of Bangalore Water Supply (supra). It was held that educational
institution is an industry in terms of Section 2(j) of the ID Act, though not all of its employees are
workmen. It was held as under: “The premises relied on is that the bulk of the employees in the
university is the teaching community. Teachers are not workmen and cannot raise disputes under the
Act. The subordinate staff being only a minor category of insignificant numbers, the institution must
be excluded, going by the predominant character test. It is one thing to say that an institution is not an
industry. It is altogether another thinking to say that a large number of its employees are not
'workmen' and cannot therefore avail of the benefits of the Act so the institution ceases to be an
industry. The test is not the predominant number of employees entitled to enjoy the benefits of the Act.
The true test is the predominant nature of the activity. In the case of the university or an educational
institution, the nature of the activity is, ex hypothesis, education which is a service to the community.
Ergo, the university is an industry. The error has crept in, if we may so say with great respect, in
mixing up the numerical strength of the personnel with the nature of the activity. Secondly there are a
number of other activities of the University Administration, demonstrably industrial which are
severable although ancillary to the main cultural enterprise. For instance, a university may have a
large printing press as a separate but considerable establishment. It may have a large fleet of transport
buses with an army of running staff. It may have a tremendous administrative strength of officers and
clerical cadres. It may have karamcharis of various hues. As the Corporation of Nagpur has effectively
ruled, these operations, viewed in severalty or collectively, may be treated as industry. It would be
strange, indeed, if a university has 50 transport buses, hiring drivers, conductors, cleaners and
workshop technicians. How are they to be denied the benefits of the Act, especially when their work is
separable from academic teaching, merely because the buses are owned by the same corporate
personality? We find, with all defence, little force in this process of nullification of the industrial
character of the University's multi-form operations.” (emphasis laid by this Court)
13.
Hence, in the light of aforesaid judgment, the Dr.Hari Singh Gaur University non teaching staff is held
to be workmen as defined under Section 2(S) and 2(J) and for this purpose, the University is held to be an
Industry as defined under Section 2(J) of the Industrial Disputes Act,1947. Issue No.1 is answered
accordingly.
14.
ISSUE NO.2:-
According to the workman Union, the applicant workman was initially appointed in the year 1997 as a
daily wager/muster roll employee. It is undisputed that up to 2009 till passing of Central Government University
Act,2009, Dr. Hari Singh Gaur University was a State University governed by M.P. Vishwavidyalaya
Adhiniyam,1973. Clause-II of the Act provides for recruitment of Class-III employees and Class-IV
employees in the University. After perusal of the Rules regarding recruitment issued in the year 1982 by the
then Registrar of the University Vide Notification No.ESTT/MISC./20/4099 dated November 29,1982 under
Section 52 of (4) of M.P.Vishwavidyalaya Adhiniyam ,1973, following is the procedure regarding recruitment
on Class-III and Class-IV posts:-

2418 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944

As regards the availability and sanctioned posts on the date of recruitment, the workman has stated
in his affidavit as examination in chief that he was initially appointed on 10-5-1997 as the data entry
operation in Central Instrumental Lab. The post was duly sanctioned and vacant and thereafter he was
transferred to computer science application department The RTI documents in the form of information
notification of University which corroborates the aforesaid statement of the workman. The workman has
filed and proved his educational qualification , service qualification and degrees which goes to show that
he has acquired degree of masters in Library with PHD which goes to show that he was firstly qualified
for the job and secondly that there is a provision for appointment of daily wagers/muster rolls as an
emergency measure for this post and Thirdly, he has specifically stated in his affidavit as his examination
in chief that a Selection Committee was formed which initially scrutinized his documents and interviewed
him. This Committee was headed by the then Vice Chancellor, Registrar, the Head of the Department and
other members. That he underwent that the recruitment procedure prevalent as per rules of recruitment for
recruitment of daily wagers/muster roll employed by the University as mentioned in the M.P.
Vishwavidyalaya Adhiniyam,1973. Accordingly it is held that the workman in this case has successfully
proved that he was appointed against sanctioned vacancy following the recruitment procedure inforce at
the time of his first recruitment and also that he was having requisite qualification for the post he was
selected. Issue No.2 is answered accordingly.
15.
ISSUE No.3:-
The workman has stated in his affidavit that since the date of his first appointment he is in continuous
service of the University of course with some artificial breaks of one to two days Exhibit 3 to Exhibit 11 and
Exhibit 12 to Exhibit 46 corroborate the case of the applicant workman when he has been in continuous service
of the management as a daily wager/muster roll employed since the date of his first appointment till date. Issue
No.3 is answered accordingly.
16.
ISSUE NO.4:-
From the aforesaid discussion, the fact that there a vacancy for the post on which the applicant workman is
working and that the applicant workman as requisite qualification of the post as well as that he has been
recruited following the procedure established as mentioned above. Learned Counsel for the workman has
referred to an Industrial Employment Standing Orders Act,1946, Clause 2(b) of Industrial Employment
(Standing Orders) Central Act 1946 which deals with the classification of the workman referred to by learned
counsel for the workman Union is being reproduced as follows:-
THE INDUSTRIAL EMPLOYMENT (Standing Orders) Act, 1946
This Act is to require employers in industrial establishments to formally define conditions of
employment under them and submit draft standing orders to certifying Authority for its
Certification. It applies to every industrial establishment wherein 100 (reduced to 50 by the Central
Government in respect of the establishments for which it is the Appropriate Government) or more
workmen are employed. And the Central Government is the appropriate Government in respect of
establishments under the control of Central Government or a Railway Administration or in a major
port, mine or oil field. Under the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946, all RLCs(C)
have been declared Certifying Officers to certify the standing orders in respect of the establishments
falling in the Central Sphere. CLC(C) and all Dy.CLCs(C) have been declared Appellate
Authorities under the Act.
17.
In the case of M.P.State Road Transport Corporation Vs. Heeralal and Chhedalal &
Others(Manu/MP 0138/1974) decided by the 5 Judges Bench of Hon’ble High Court of M.P., it has been held
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2419
that in case of any discrepancy in the Standing Orders and Rules made by the Industrial Establishment, the
former shall prevail. Hon’ble High Court has referred to another decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court in
U.P.State Electricity Board Vs. Hari Shankar Jain & another (1997) SC 65 which has laid down the same
prepositions, hence so far as the case of the applicant workman is concerned his rights will be governed by the
standard Clause 2(b) of Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Central Act 1946 mentioned as above. This is
also established on record documentary/statement of applicant workman for he has been discharging duties
similarly to that done by the regular staff.
18.
Reference of Section 25(T) and Scheduled V of the Unfair Labour Practice of the Industrial Disputes
Act,1947 which deal with prohibition of unfair labour practice requires to be mentioned here which are being
reproduced as follows:-
[CHAPTER VC
UNFAIR LABOUR PRACTICES
25T. Prohibition of unfair labour practice.—No employer or workman or a trade union, whether
registered under the Trader Unions Act, 1926 (18 of 1926), or not, shall commit any unfair
labour practice.
19.
It is now established that giving artificial break of one or two days at certain time establishes the fact
that the management of University has adopted un fair labour practice keeping in view the fact that the same
work continued after break and the same persons was engaged for that break even after breaks. Reference of
case law Secretary State of Karnataka and Uma Devi & Others 2006 AIR SCW has been taken by Management
in its written statement of defence but since in the case in hand it has been proved that the applicant workman
was not appointed through a back door entry rather he entered in the service after undergoing the recruitment
procedure prevalent at that time, hence, the law laid down in that case does not apply to the case in hand.

AWARD
(Passed on this 19th day of October-2022)
2.
As per letter dated 19/09/2016 by the Government of India, Ministry of Labour, New Delhi, the reference
is received. The reference is made to this Tribunal under Section 10 of I.D. Act, 1947 as per Notification No.
L-42011/89/2016-IR(DU). The dispute under reference relates to:
“Whether Shri Ravi Shankar Agarwal who is performing the duties of Lab Technician Assistant
Grade III. being paid only Class-IV wages by Dr. Hari Singh Gour University, Sagar Whether he
is entitled for permanent classification with Class-III Wages, in the post of Assistant Grade
III/Lab Technician with Grade pay of Rs. 2400/- pm w.e.f 17/07/2009 along with arrears or not?”
1.
After registering the case on the basis of reference, notices were sent to the parties. Both the parties have
filed their statement of claim/defense.
2.
The case of the workman Union, as put up in their statement of claim, is that is an
Association of persons working for the protection of the interest of employees working for the
University. It has authority to raise a dispute and contest the case on behalf of the workman who has is a
member of the Union. The workman was initially appointed as Lab Technician and continued as daily
wager/muster roll employee, grade three post since his initial appointment in the year 2006. He
approached the Hon’ble High Court of M.P,. when there was reduction of pay by way of a writ petition.
Hon’ble High Court directed the University to give benefit of minimum pay scale notified to the post .
The University was declared a Central University vide Central University Act 2009. Before that, it was a
State University as per provisions of M.P. Vishswavidyaklaya Adhiniyam 1973. The workman was
initially appointed as a Lab Technician on 6-2-2006 in the Department of Applied Micro Biology and
Biotechonology and started discharging his duties as Lab Technician. The said appointment was with the
prior approval after creation of the post. The said workman has been continuously working since the date
of his first appointment on 6-2-2006 till date and discharging his duties allotted by the University.
3.
According to the workman Union, the duties which were discharged by the applicant workman is of
Class-III post in the University. When the University was a State University. a resolution was passed by
the Executive Council of the University in its meeting dated 1-5-2008 by exercising powers under Section
24 of the M.P. Vishwavidyalaya Adhiniyam,1973. It was resolved that all the daily wagers/muster roll
employees, employed will be entitled to minimum of pay and scale and allowances which is applicable to
the Grades in which they were discharging their duties. The Executive council further adopted the
recommendation of other pay recommendations of Teachers/Officers and employees vide its resolution
dated 22-8-2009. The University was declared a Central University with the passage of notification of
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2421
Central Universities Act,2009. Section 4D of this Act provided that every person earlier employed by the
University shall hold his office on same remuneration and terms and conditions and rules and privileges
unless it is altered in consequence with the statutory rights. The Applicant Workman and the other
similarly situated employees who were required to discharge duties equivalent to Class-III employees
were illegally downgraded to Class-IV employees. It is further the case of the workman Union that the
university has not recruited regular employees in Class-III and Class-IV for the last several years and this
work is being discharged by applicant workman and other similarly situated workman even today also.
Hence, the action of the University denying standard classification pay scale of Grade-III to employees
and making payment to all at the same rate of pay irrespective of work discharged by them is illegal and
arbitrary. It is in this back drop that Hon’ble High Court of M.P. directed the University to pay the
applicant workman and similarly situated petitioners minimum pay in the scale of pay notified for the
post against which they are discharging their duties vide its order dated 26-9-2011 passed in
W.P.No.4520/2010. This order has been affirmed by Hon’ble the High Court vide its order dated
26-7-2013 passed in S.L.P.No.18342-43/2013. Further it has been stated that in order to circumvent the
order of Hon’ble High Court and Hon. Supreme Court, the University has not carried proper classification
and fitment . Since the applicant workman is discharging duties ever since 6-2-2006 on the post of Lab
Assistant, he has not been given proper classification and fitment and deprived them of all the benefits
which is violation of standard order applicable over the University. Accordingly, it has been prayed that
holding the applicant workman entitled for permanent classification in Grade-III for the post of Lab
Assistant, Grade-II and III from the date of completion of six months of his application or since 17-7-2009
with arrears and interest
4.
IN the written statement of defence by the University, it has been pleaded that the allegation of the
workman that he is discharging his duties on vacant and sanctioned post is incorrect. To obtain the status
of a permanent employee a person must be employed in terms of statutory rules. The applicant workman
was simply a daily wager/temporary employee who cannot hold the post unless he is appointment in terms
of the Act and rules framed there under. An appointment may in violation of mandatory provisions of a
statute is nullity. A persons appointed in such a manner cannot claim any benefit and rights regarding
regularization and permanency in service in the light of Principle laid down in the case of State of
Karnataka & Another Vs. Uma Devi and Others(2006) 4 SCC 1. As regards the order of
Hon’ble High Court and Hon’ble the Apex Court directing minimum pay in the scale , it is the case of the
Management that the this order has been complied with by the management of University. The Competent
Authority in the University has constituted a Committee to examine the case of daily wagers/muster roll
employees discharging the duties of Class-III and on the basis of the records available the daily wage and
muster roll employees have been given pay entitled to Class-III employees and Dearness Allowance.
Accordingly the management has requested that the reference be answered against the workman Union.
5.
The workman Union has filed a rejoinder wherein it has denied the case of management and has further
reiterated its case.
6.
The workman has filed vide list 40 documents and has proved as Exhibit W01 to W-40, to be referred to
as and when required. The workman Union has further filed and proved photocopy of marksheets and
qualification related documents of the workman Ravi Prakash Agarwal which are Exhibit W-41 to W-45,
to be referred to as and when required.
7.
The workman Union has filed affidavit as his examination in chief . Opportunity of cross-examination of
this witness was given to management . They did not avail this opportunity, hence opportunity of cross-
examination of this witness is closed.
8.
The management has not examined any witness, rather it has filed two photocopy office orders dated
5-5-2014 and 2-11-2016 both admitted by workman Union, marked as Exhibit M1 to M2 respectively.
9.
I have heard arguments of Mr. Uttam Maheshwari, learned counsel for the workman Union. The
management did not appear at the time of arguments. The workman Union has filed written arguments
also which is part of the record. No written arguments has been filed by the Management. I have gone
through the record as well.
10.
On perusal of record in the light of arguments, the following points/issues come up for determination :-
1)Whether the University Dr. Hari Singh Gaur University is an industry as defined under Section
2(J) and the applicant workman is a workman as defined in Section 2(s) of the of the Industrial
Disputes Act,1947?
2.Whether the applicant workman was recruited as a daily wager/muster roll employee against
sanctioned vacancy, following recruitment procedure and also whether he had the requisite
qualification for the job he was recruited?
2422 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
3.Whether the workman has been in continuous service of the management from the date of his first
appointment till date?
4.Whether the applicant workman is entitled to be classified as Category-III/Class-III employee for
the post of Lab-Technician/Assistant Grade-III , if yes from which date?
5.Whether the applicant workman is entitled to relief if any?
11.
ISSUE NO.1:-
Before proceeding it is necessary to enumerate Section 2(J) and Section 2(S) of the Industrial Disputes
Act,1947 as below:-
Section 2(S)-
“workman” means any person (including an apprentice) employed in any industry to do any
manual, unskilled, skilled, technical, operational, clerical or supervisory work for hire or reward,
whether the terms of employment be express or implied, and for the purposes of any proceeding
under this Act in relation to an industrial dispute, includes any such person who has been
dismissed, discharged or retrenched in connection with, or as a consequence of, that dispute, or
whose dismissal, discharge or retrenchment has led to that dispute, but does not include any such
person-
(i)
who is subject to the Air Force Act, 1950 (45 of 1950), or the Army Act, 1950 (46 of 1950),
or the Navy Act, 1957 (62 of 1957); or
(ii)
who is employed in the police service or as an officer or other employee of a prison, or
(iii) who is employed mainly in a managerial or administrative capacity, or
(iv) who, being employed in a supervisory capacity, draws wages exceeding one thousand six
hundred rupees per mensem or exercises, either by the nature of the duties attached to the
office or by reason of the powers vested in him, functions mainly of a managerial nature.]
2(j) “industry” means any business, trade, undertaking, manufacture or calling of
employers andincludes any calling, service, employment, handicraft, or industrial
occupation or avocation of workmen;
12.
In the case of Rajkumar Vs. Director Education Civil appeal No.1020/2011 Hon’ble the Apex Court
has held that educational institution is industry as defined under Section 2(J) of the Act. As regards the
University, Hon’ble the Apex court has referred to the Judgment of Seven Judges Bench in the case of
Bangalore Water Suppy & Sewarage Board Vs. R.Rajappa and Others , (1978) Scr (3) 207, the relevant
portion is being reproduced as follows:-
“The issue whether educational institution is an ‘industry’, and its employees are ‘workmen’ for 4
(1997) 5 SCC 737 ,the purpose of the ID Act has been answered by a Seven-judge Bench of this
Court way back in the year 1978 in the case of Bangalore Water Supply (supra). It was held that
educational institution is an industry in terms of Section 2(j) of the ID Act, though not all of its
employees are workmen. It was held as under: “The premises relied on is that the bulk of the
employees in the university is the teaching community. Teachers are not workmen and cannot raise
disputes under the Act. The subordinate staff being only a minor category of insignificant numbers,
the institution must be excluded, going by the predominant character test. It is one thing to say that
an institution is not an industry. It is altogether another thinking to say that a large number of its
employees are not 'workmen' and cannot therefore avail of the benefits of the Act so the institution
ceases to be an industry. The test is not the predominant number of employees entitled to enjoy the
benefits of the Act. The true test is the predominant nature of the activity. In the case of the
university or an educational institution, the nature of the activity is, ex hypothesis, education which
is a service to the community. Ergo, the university is an industry. The error has crept in, if we may
so say with great respect, in mixing up the numerical strength of the personnel with the nature of
the activity. Secondly there are a number of other activities of the University Administration,
demonstrably industrial which are severable although ancillary to the main cultural enterprise. For
instance, a university may have a large printing press as a separate but considerable establishment.
It may have a large fleet of transport buses with an army of running staff. It may have a
tremendous administrative strength of officers and clerical cadres. It may have karamcharis of
various hues. As the Corporation of Nagpur has effectively ruled, these operations, viewed in
severalty or collectively, may be treated as industry. It would be strange, indeed, if a university has
50 transport buses, hiring drivers, conductors, cleaners and workshop technicians. How are they to
be denied the benefits of the Act, especially when their work is separable from academic teaching,
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2423
merely because the buses are owned by the same corporate personality? We find, with all defence,
little force in this process of nullification of the industrial character of the University's multi-form
operations.” (emphasis laid by this Court)
13.
Hence, in the light of aforesaid judgment, the Dr.Hari Singh Gaur University non teaching staff is held to
be workmen as defined under Section 2(S) and 2(J) and for this purpose, the University is held to be an Industry
as defined under Section 2(J) of the Industrial Disputes Act,1947. Issue No.1 is answered accordingly.
14.
ISSUE NO.2:-
According to the workman Union, the applicant workman was initially appointed on 6-2-2006 as a daily
wager/muster roll employee. It is undisputed that up to 2009 till passing of Central Government University
Act,2009, Dr. Hari Singh Gaur University was a State University governed by M.P. Vishwavidyalaya

in the Department of Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology. The post was duly sanctioned and

From the aforesaid discussion, the fact that there a vacancy for the post on which the applicant workman

referred to an Industrial Employment Standing Orders Act,1946, Clause 2(b) of Industrial Employment
(Standing Orders) Central Act 1946 which deals with the classification of the workman referred to by learned
counsel for the workman Union is being reproduced as follows:-
2424 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
THE INDUSTRIAL EMPLOYMENT (Standing Ordsers) Act, 1947
This Act is to require employers in industrial establishments to formally define conditions of
employment under them and submit draft standing orders to certifying Authority for its
Certification. It applies to every industrial establishment wherein 100 (reduced to 50 by the Central
Government in respect of the establishments for which it is the Appropriate Government) or more
workmen are employed. And the Central Government is the appropriate Government in respect of
establishments under the control of Central Government or a Railway Administration or in a major
port, mine or oil field. Under the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946, all RLCs(C)
have been declared Certifying Officers to certify the standing orders in respect of the establishments
falling in the Central Sphere. CLC(C) and all Dy.CLCs(C) have been declared Appellate
Authorities under the Act.
17.
In the case of M.P.State Road Transport Corporation Vs. Heeralal and Chhedalal &
Others(Manu/MP 0138/1974) decided by the 5 Judges Bench of Hon’ble High Court of M.P., it has been held
that in case of any discrepancy in the Standing Orders and Rules made by the Industrial Establishment, the
former shall prevail. Hon’ble High Court has referred to another decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court in
U.P.State Electricity Board Vs. Hari Shankar Jain & another (1997) SC 65 which has laid down the same
prepositions, hence so far as the case of the applicant workman is concerned his rights will be governed by the
standard Clause 2(b) of Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Central Act 1946 mentioned as above. This is
also established on record documentary/statement of applicant workman for he has been discharging duties
similarly to that done by the regular staff.
18.
Reference of Section 25(T) and Scheduled V of the Unfair Labour Practice of the Industrial Disputes
Act,1947 which deal with prohibition of unfair labour practice requires to be mentioned here which are being
reproduced as follows:-
[CHAPTER VC
UNFAIR LABOUR PRACTICES
25T. Prohibition of unfair labour practice.—No employer or workman or a trade union, whether
registered under the Trader Unions Act, 1926 (18 of 1926), or not, shall commit any unfair labour
practice.
19.
It is now established that giving artificial break of one or two days at certain time establishes the fact
that the management of University has adopted un fair labour practice keeping in view the fact that the same
work continued after break and the same persons was engaged for that break even after breaks. Reference of
case law Secretary State of Karnataka and Uma Devi & Others 2006 AIR SCW has been taken by Management
in its written statement of defence but since in the case in hand it has been proved that the applicant workman
was not appointed through a back door entry rather he entered in the service after undergoing the recruitment
procedure prevalent at that time, hence, the law laid down in that case does not apply to the case in hand.
Judgement of Hon’ble the Apex Court in the case of State of U.P. Vs. Pooranchand Pandey Appeal (civil)
3765 of 2000 and Harinandan Prasad Vs,.Food Corporation of India & Ors. Appeal (civil) 3765 of 2000

workman was initially appointed as a Store Keeper on 24-11-2004 in the Department of Computer Science and
application and started discharging his duties as Store Keeper. The said appointment was with the prior
approval after creation of the post. The said workman has been continuously working since the date of his first
appointment on 24-11-2004 till date and discharging his duties allotted by the University.
3.
According to the workman Union, the duties which were discharged by the applicant workman is of
Class-III post in the University. When the University was a State University. a resolution was passed by the
Executive Council of the University in its meeting dated 1-5-2008 by exercising powers under Section 24 of the
M.P. Vishwavidyalaya Adhiniyam,1973. It was resolved that all the daily wagers/muster roll employees,
employed will be entitled to minimum of pay and scale and allowances which is applicable to the Grades in
which they were discharging their duties. The Executive council further adopted the recommendation of other
pay recommendations of Teachers/Officers and employees vide its resolution dated 22-8-2009. The University
was declared a Central University with the passage of notification of Central Universities Act,2009. Section 4D
of this Act provided that every person earlier employed by the University shall hold his office on same
remuneration and terms and conditions and rules and privileges unless it is altered in consequence with the
statutory rights. The Applicant Workman and the other similarly situated employees who were required to
discharge duties equivalent to Class-III employees were illegally downgraded to Class-IV employees. It is
further the case of the workman Union that the university has not recruited regular employees in Class-III and
Class-IV for the last several years and this work is being discharged by applicant workman and other similarly
situated workman even today also. Hence, the action of the University denying standard classification pay scale
of Grade-III to employees and making payment to all at the same rate of pay irrespective of work discharged by
them is illegal and arbitrary. It is in this back drop that Hon’ble High Court of M.P. directed the University to
pay the applicant workman and similarly situated petitioners minimum pay in the scale of pay notified for the
post against which they are discharging their duties vide its order dated 26-9-2011 passed in W.P.No.4520/2010.
This order has been affirmed by Hon’ble the High Court vide its order dated 26-7-2013 passed in
S.L.P.No.18342-43/2013. Further it has been stated that in order to circumvent the order of Hon’ble High Court
and Hon. Supreme Court, the University has not carried proper classification and fitment . Since the applicant
workman is discharging duties ever since March-2000 on the post of Store Keeper, he has not been given
proper classification and fitment and deprived them of all the benefits which is violation of standard order
applicable over the University. Accordingly, it has been prayed that holding the applicant workman entitled for
permanent classification in Grade-III for the post of Store Keeper, Grade-II and III with Grade Pay Scale of
Rs.2400/- per month w.e.f. completion of six months from the date of completion of six months of his
application or since 17-7-2009 with arrears and interest.
4.
IN the written statement of defence by the University, it has been pleaded that the allegation of the
workman that he is discharging his duties on vacant and sanctioned post is incorrect. To obtain the status of a
permanent employee a person must be employed in terms of statutory rules. The applicant workman was simply
a daily wager/temporary employee who cannot hold the post unless he is appointment in terms of the Act and
rules framed there under. An appointment may in violation of mandatory provisions of a statute is nullity. A
persons appointed in such a manner cannot claim any benefit and rights regarding regularization and
permanency in service in the light of Principle laid down in the case of State of Karnataka & Another Vs.
Uma Devi and Others(2006) 4 SCC 1. As regards the order of Hon’ble High Court and Hon’ble the Apex
Court directing minimum pay in the scale , it is the case of the Management that the this order has been
complied with by the management of University. The Competent Authority in the University has constituted a
Committee to examine the case of daily wagers/muster roll employees discharging the duties of Class-III and
on the basis of the records available the daily wage and muster roll employees have been given pay entitled to
Class-III employees and Dearness Allowance. Accordingly the management has requested that the reference be
answered against the workman Union.
5.
The workman Union has filed a rejoinder wherein it has denied the case of management and has further
reiterated its case.
6.
The workman has filed vide list 27 documents and has proved as Exhibit W-01 to W-27, to be referred
to as and when required. The workman Union has further filed and proved photocopy of marksheets and service
related documents of the workman Dhwajti Shankar Sharma which are Exhibit W-28 to W-31, to be referred to
as and when required.
7.
The workman Union has filed affidavit as his examination in chief . Opportunity of cross-examination
of this witness was given to management . They did not avail this opportunity, hence opportunity of cross-
examination of this witness is closed.

8.
The management has not examined any witness, rather it has filed two photocopy office orders dated
5-5-2014 and 2-11-2016 both admitted by workman Union, marked as Exhibit M1 to M2 respectively.
9.
I have heard arguments of Mr. Uttam Maheshwari, learned counsel for the workman Union. The
management did not appear at the time of arguments. The workman Union has filed written arguments also
which is part of the record. No written arguments has been filed by the Management. I have gone through the
record as well.
10.
On perusal of record in the light of arguments, the following points/issues come up for determination :-
1)Whether the University Dr. Hari Singh Gaur University is an industry as defined under Section
2(J) and the applicant workman is a workman as defined in Section 2(s) of the of the Industrial
Disputes Act,1947?
2.Whether the applicant workman was recruited as a daily wager/muster roll employee against
sanctioned vacancy, following recruitment procedure and also whether he had the requisite
qualification for the job he was recruited?
3.Whether the workman has been in continuous service of the management from the date of his
first appointment till date?
4.Whether the applicant workman is entitled to be classified as Category-III/Class-III employee
for the post of Store Keeper Assistant Grade-III , if yes from which date?
5.Whether the applicant workman is entitled to relief if any?
11.
ISSUE NO.1:-
Before proceeding it is necessary to enumerate Section 2(J) and Section 2(S) of the Industrial Disputes
Act,1947 as below:-
Section 2(S)-
“workman” means any person (including an apprentice) employed in any industry to do any
manual, unskilled, skilled, technical, operational, clerical or supervisory work for hire or reward,
whether the terms of employment be express or implied, and for the purposes of any proceeding
under this Act in relation to an industrial dispute, includes any such person who has been
dismissed, discharged or retrenched in connection with, or as a consequence of, that dispute, or
whose dismissal, discharge or retrenchment has led to that dispute, but does not include any such
person-
(i)
who is subject to the Air Force Act, 1950 (45 of 1950), or the Army Act, 1950 (46 of
1950), or the Navy Act, 1957 (62 of 1957); or
(ii)
who is employed in the police service or as an officer or other employee of a prison, or
(iii)
who is employed mainly in a managerial or administrative capacity, or
(iv)
who, being employed in a supervisory capacity, draws wages exceeding one thousand six
hundred rupees per mensum or exercises, either by the nature of the duties attached to
the office or by reason of the powers vested in him, functions mainly of a managerial
nature.]
2(j) “industry” means any business, trade, undertaking, manufacture or calling of
employers and includes any calling, service, employment, handicraft, or industrial
occupation or avocation of workmen;
12.
In the case of Rajkumar Vs. Director Education Civil appeal No.1020/2011 Hon’ble the Apex Court
has held that educational institution is industry as defined under Section 2(J) of the Act. As regards the
University, Hon’ble the Apex court has referred to the Judgment of Seven Judges Bench in the case of
Bangalore Water Suppy & Sewarage Board Vs. R.Rajappa and Others , (1978) Scr (3) 207, the relevant
portion is being reproduced as follows:-
“The issue whether educational institution is an ‘industry’, and its employees are ‘workmen’ for 4 (1997) 5
SCC 737 ,the purpose of the ID Act has been answered by a Seven-judge Bench of this Court way back in the
year 1978 in the case of Bangalore Water Supply (supra). It was held that educational institution is an industry
in terms of Section 2(j) of the ID Act, though not all of its employees are workmen. It was held as under: “The
premises relied on is that the bulk of the employees in the university is the teaching community. Teachers are
not workmen and cannot raise disputes under the Act. The subordinate staff being only a minor category of
insignificant numbers, the institution must be excluded, going by the predominant character test. It is one thing
to say that an institution is not an industry. It is altogether another thinking to say that a large number of its
employees are not 'workmen' and cannot therefore avail of the benefits of the Act so the institution ceases to be
2428 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
an industry. The test is not the predominant number of employees entitled to enjoy the benefits of the Act. The
true test is the predominant nature of the activity. In the case of the university or an educational institution, the
nature of the activity is, ex hypothesis, education which is a service to the community. Ergo, the university is an
industry. The error has crept in, if we may so say with great respect, in mixing up the numerical strength of the
personnel with the nature of the activity. Secondly there are a number of other activities of the University
Administration, demonstrably industrial which are severable although ancillary to the main cultural
enterprise. For instance, a university may have a large printing press as a separate but considerable
establishment. It may have a large fleet of transport buses with an army of running staff. It may have a
tremendous administrative strength of officers and clerical cadres. It may have karamcharis of various hues.
As the Corporation of Nagpur has effectively ruled, these operations, viewed in severalty or collectively, may be
treated as industry. It would be strange, indeed, if a university has 50 transport buses, hiring drivers,
conductors, cleaners and workshop technicians. How are they to be denied the benefits of the Act, especially
when their work is separable from academic teaching, merely because the buses are owned by the same
corporate personality? We find, with all defence, little force in this process of nullification of the industrial
character of the University's multi-form operations.” (emphasis laid by this Court)
13.
Hence, in the light of aforesaid judgment, the Dr.Hari Singh Gaur University non teaching staff is held
to be workmen as defined under Section 2(S) and 2(J) and for this purpose, the University is held to be an
Industry as defined under Section 2(J) of the Industrial Disputes Act,1947. Issue No.1 is answered
accordingly.
14.
ISSUE NO.2:-
According to the workman Union, the applicant workman was initially appointed in the year 2004 as a
daily wager/muster roll employee. It is undisputed that up to 2009 till passing of Central Government University

16.
ISSUE NO.4:-
From the aforesaid discussion, the fact that there a vacancy for the post on which the applicant
workman is working and that the applicant workman as requisite qualification of the post as well as that he
has been recruited following the procedure established as mentioned above. Learned Counsel for the workman
has referred to an Industrial Employment Standing Orders Act,1946, Clause 2(b) of Industrial Employment
(Standing Orders) Central Act 1946 which deals with the classification of the workman referred to by learned
counsel for the workman Union is being reproduced as follows:-
THE INDUSTRIAL EMPLOYMENT (Standing Orders) Act, 1946
This Act is to require employers in industrial establishments to formally define conditions of
employment under them and submit draft standing orders to certifying Authority for its
Certification. It applies to every industrial establishment wherein 100 (reduced to 50 by the
Central Government in respect of the establishments for which it is the Appropriate
Government) or more workmen are employed. And the Central Government is the appropriate
Government in respect of establishments under the control of Central Government or a Railway
Administration or in a major port, mine or oil field. Under the Industrial Employment (Standing
Orders) Act, 1946, all RLCs(C) have been declared Certifying Officers to certify the standing
orders in respect of the establishments falling in the Central Sphere. CLC(C) and all
Dy.CLCs(C) have been declared Appellate Authorities under the Act.
17.
In the case of M.P.State Road Transport Corporation Vs. Heeralal and Chhedalal &
Others(Manu/MP 0138/1974) decided by the 5 Judges Bench of Hon’ble High Court of M.P., it has been held
that in case of any discrepancy in the Standing Orders and Rules made by the Industrial Establishment, the
former shall prevail. Hon’ble High Court has referred to another decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court in
U.P.State Electricity Board Vs. Hari Shankar Jain & another (1997) SC 65 which has laid down the same
prepositions, hence so far as the case of the applicant workman is concerned his rights will be governed by the
standard Clause 2(b) of Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Central Act 1946 mentioned as above. This is
also established on record documentary/statement of applicant workman for he has been discharging duties
similarly to that done by the regular staff.
18.
Reference of Section 25(T) and Scheduled V of the Unfair Labour Practice of the Industrial Disputes
Act,1947 which deal with prohibition of unfair labour practice requires to be mentioned here which are being
reproduced as follows:-
[CHAPTER VC
UNFAIR LABOUR PRACTICES
25T. Prohibition of unfair labour practice.—No employer or workman or a trade union, whether
registered under the Trader Unions Act, 1926 (18 of 1926), or not, shall commit any unfair
labour practice.
19.
It is now established that giving artificial break of one or two days at certain time establishes the fact
that the management of University has adopted un fair labour practice keeping in view the fact that the same
work continued after break and the same persons was engaged for that break even after breaks. Reference of
case law Secretary State of Karnataka and Uma Devi & Others 2006 AIR SCW has been taken by Management
in its written statement of defence but since in the case in hand it has been proved that the applicant workman
was not appointed through a back door entry rather he entered in the service after undergoing the recruitment
procedure prevalent at that time, hence, the law laid down in that case does not apply to the case in hand.
Judgement of Hon’ble the Apex Court in the case of State of U.P. Vs. Pooranchand Pandey Appeal (civil)
3765 of 2000 and Harinandan Prasad Vs,.Food Corporation of India & Ors. Appeal (civil) 3765 of 2000
require to be mentioned in this respect. Issue No.4 is answered accordingly.

1.
As per letter dated 19/09/2016 by the Government of India, Ministry of Labour, New Delhi, the
reference is received. The reference is made to this Tribunal under Section 10 of I.D. Act, 1947 as per

University, Sagar. Whether he is entitled for permanent classification with Class-III Wages, in
the post of Assistant Grade-III/Computer Operator with Grade pay of Rs. 2800/- pm w.e.f.
17/07/2009 along with arrears or not?"
1.
After registering the case on the basis of reference, notices were sent to the parties. Both the parties
have filed their statement of claim/defense.
2.
The case of the workman Union, as put up in their statement of claim, is that is an Association of
persons working for the protection of the interest of employees working for the University. It has authority to
raise a dispute and contest the case on behalf of the workman who has is a member of the Union. The workman
was initially appointed as Lower Division Clerk and continued as daily wager/muster roll employee, grade three
post since his initial appointment in the year 1998. He approached the Hon’ble High Court of M.P,. when there
was reduction of pay by way of a writ petition. Hon’ble High court directed the University to give benefit of
minimum pay scale notified to the post . The University was declared a Central University vide Central
University Act 2009. Before that, it was a State University as per provisions of M.P. Vishswavidyaklaya
Adhiniyam 1973. The workman was initially appointed as a Lower Division Clerk on 12-3-1998 in the Faculty
of Management studies and started discharging his duties as Lower Division Clerk. Thereafter, he was shifted to
department of Computer Science as computer operator on 9-11-1998. The said appointment was with the prior
approval after creation of the post. The said workman has been continuously working since the date of his first
appointment on 12-03-1998 till date and discharging his duties allotted by the University.
3.
According to the workman Union, the duties which were discharged by the applicant workman is of
Class-III post in the University. When the University was a State University. a resolution was passed by the
Executive Council of the University in its meeting dated 1-5-2008 by exercising powers under Section 24 of the
M.P. Vishwavidyalaya Adhiniyam,1973. It was resolved that all the daily wagers/muster roll employees,
employed will be entitled to minimum of pay and scale and allowances which is applicable to the Grades in
which they were discharging their duties. The Executive council further adopted the recommendation of other
pay recommendations of Teachers/Officers and employees vide its resolution dated 22-8-2009. The University
was declared a Central University with the passage of notification of Central Universities Act,2009. Section 4D
of this Act provided that every person earlier employed by the University shall hold his office on same
remuneration and terms and conditions and rules and privileges unless it is altered in consequence with the
statutory rights. The Applicant Workman and the other similarly situated employees who were required to
discharge duties equivalent to Class-iii employees were illegally downgraded to Class-IV employees. It is
further the case of the workman Union that the university has not recruited regular employees in Class-III and
Class-IV for the last several years and this work is being discharged by applicant workman and other similarly
situated workman even today also. Hence, the action of the University denying standard classification pay scale
of Grade-III to employees and making payment to all at the same rate of pay irrespective of work discharged by
them is illegal and arbitrary. It is in this back drop that Hon’ble High Court of M.P. directed the University to
pay the applicant workman and similarly situated petitioners minimum pay in the scale of pay notified for the
post against which they are discharging their duties vide its order dated 26-9-2011 passed in W.P.No.4520/2010.
This order has been affirmed by Hon’ble the High Court vide its order dated 26-7-2013 passed in
S.L.P.No.18342-43/2013. Further it has been stated that in order to circumvent the order of Hon’ble High Court
and Hon. Supreme Court, the University has not carried proper classification and fitment . Since the applicant
workman is discharging duties ever since March-1998 on the post of Lower Division Clerk and Computer
Operator since November-9-1998, he has not been given proper classification and fitment and deprived them of
all the benefits which is violation of standard order applicable over the University. Accordingly, it has been
prayed that holding the applicant workman entitled for permanent classification in Grade-III for the post of
Lower Division Clerk/Computer Operator, Grade-II and III with Grade Pay Scale of Rs.4200/- per month w.e.f.
completion of six months from the date of completion of six months of his application or since 12-3-1998 with
arrears and interest.
4.
IN the written statement of defence by the University, it has been pleaded that the allegation of the
workman that he is discharging his duties on vacant and sanctioned post is incorrect. To obtain the status of a
permanent employee a person must be employed in terms of statutory rules. The applicant workman was simply
a daily wager/temporary employee who cannot hold the post unless he is appointment in terms of the Act and
2432 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
rules framed there under. An appointment may in violation of mandatory provisions of a statute is nullity. A
persons appointed in such a manner cannot claim any benefit and rights regarding regularization and
permanency in service in the light of Principle laid down in the case of State of Karnataka & Another Vs.
Uma Devi and Others(2006) 4 SCC 1. As regards the order of Hon’ble High Court and Hon’ble the Apex
Court directing minimum pay in the scale , it is the case of the Management that the this order has been
complied with by the management of University. The Competent Authority in the University has constituted a
Committee to examine the case of daily wagers/muster roll employees discharging the duties of Class-III and
on the basis of the records available the daily wage and muster roll employees have been given pay entitled to
Class-III employees and Dearness Allowance. Accordingly the management has requested that the reference be
answered against the workman Union.
5.
The workman Union has filed a rejoinder wherein it has denied the case of management and has further
reiterated its case.
6.
The workman has filed vide list 77 documents and has proved as Exhibit W01 to W-69, to be referred
to as and when required. The workman Union has further filed and proved photocopy of marksheets and service
related documents of the workman Uma Shankar Rajak which are Exhibit W-70 to W-77, to be referred to as
and when required.
7.
The workman Union has filed affidavit as his examination in chief . Opportunity of cross-examination
of this witness was given to management . They did not avail this opportunity, hence opportunity of cross-
examination of this witness is closed.
8.
The management has not examined any witness, rather it has filed two photocopy office orders dated
5-5-2014 and 2-11-2016 both admitted by workman Union, marked as Exhibit M1 to M2 respectively.
9.
I have heard arguments of Mr. Uttam Maheshwari, learned counsel for the workman Union. The
management did not appear at the time of arguments. The workman Union has filed written arguments also
which is part of the record. No written arguments has been filed by the Management. I have gone through the
record as well.
10.
On perusal of record in the light of arguments, the following points/issues come up for determination :-
1) Whether the University Dr. Hari Singh Gaur University is an industry as defined under
Section 2(J) and the applicant workman is a workman as defined in Section 2(s) of the of the

(iv) who, being employed in a supervisory capacity, draws wages exceeding one thousand six
hundred rupees per mensum or exercises, either by the nature of the duties attached to the
office or by reason of the powers vested in him, functions mainly of a managerial nature.]
2(j) “industry” means any business, trade, undertaking, manufacture or calling of
employers and includes any calling, service, employment, handicraft, or industrial
occupation or avocation of workmen;
12.
In the case of Rajkumar Vs. Director Education Civil appeal No.1020/2011 Hon’ble the Apex Court
has held that educational institution is industry as defined under Section 2(J) of the Act. As regards the
University, Hon’ble the Apex court has referred to the Judgment of Seven Judges Bench in the case of
Bangalore Water Suppy & Sewarage Board Vs. R.Rajappa and Others , (1978) Scr (3) 207, the relevant
portion is being reproduced as follows:-
“The issue whether educational institution is an ‘industry’, and its employees are ‘workmen’ for 4 (1997) 5 SCC
737 ,the purpose of the ID Act has been answered by a Seven-judge Bench of this Court way back in the year
1978 in the case of Bangalore Water Supply (supra). It was held that educational institution is an industry in
terms of Section 2(j) of the ID Act, though not all of its employees are workmen. It was held as under: “The
premises relied on is that the bulk of the employees in the university is the teaching community. Teachers are not
workmen and cannot raise disputes under the Act. The subordinate staff being only a minor category of
insignificant numbers, the institution must be excluded, going by the predominant character test. It is one thing
to say that an institution is not an industry. It is altogether another thinking to say that a large number of its
employees are not 'workmen' and cannot therefore avail of the benefits of the Act so the institution ceases to be
an industry. The test is not the predominant number of employees entitled to enjoy the benefits of the Act. The
true test is the predominant nature of the activity. In the case of the university or an educational institution, the
nature of the activity is, ex hypothesis, education which is a service to the community. Ergo, the university is an
industry. The error has crept in, if we may so say with great respect, in mixing up the numerical strength of the
personnel with the nature of the activity. Secondly there are a number of other activities of the University
Administration, demonstrably industrial which are severable although ancillary to the main cultural enterprise.
For instance, a university may have a large printing press as a separate but considerable establishment. It may
have a large fleet of transport buses with an army of running staff. It may have a tremendous administrative
strength of officers and clerical cadres. It may have karamcharis of various hues. As the Corporation of Nagpur
has effectively ruled, these operations, viewed in severalty or collectively, may be treated as industry. It would be
strange, indeed, if a university has 50 transport buses, hiring drivers, conductors, cleaners and workshop
technicians. How are they to be denied the benefits of the Act, especially when their work is separable from
academic teaching, merely because the buses are owned by the same corporate personality? We find, with all
defence, little force in this process of nullification of the industrial character of the University's multi-form
operations.” (emphasis laid by this Court)
13.
Hence, in the light of aforesaid judgment, the Dr.Hari Singh Gaur University non teaching staff is held
to be workmen as defined under Section 2(S) and 2(J) and for this purpose, the University is held to be an
Industry as defined under Section 2(J) of the Industrial Disputes Act,1947. Issue No.1 is answered
accordingly.
14.
ISSUE NO.2:-

15.
ISSUE No.3:-

service of the University of course with some artificial breaks of one to two days Exhibit 3 to Exhibit 11 and
Exhibit 12 to Exhibit 46 corroborate the case of the applicant workman when he has been in continuous service
of the management as a daily wager/muster roll employed since the date of his first appointment till date. Issue
No.3 is answered accordingly.
16.
ISSUE NO.4:-
From the aforesaid discussion, the fact that there a vacancy for the post on which the applicant
workman is working and that the applicant workman as requisite qualification of the post as well as that he
has been recruited following the procedure established as mentioned above. Learned Counsel for the workman
has referred to an Industrial Employment Standing Orders Act,1946, Clause 2(b) of Industrial Employment
(Standing Orders) Central Act 1946 which deals with the classification of the workman referred to by learned
counsel for the workman Union is being reproduced as follows:-
THE INDUSTRIAL EMPLOYMENT (Standing Orders) Act, 1946
This Act is to require employers in industrial establishments to formally define conditions of
employment under them and submit draft standing orders to certifying Authority for its
Certification. It applies to every industrial establishment wherein 100 (reduced to 50 by the
Central Government in respect of the establishments for which it is the Appropriate
Government) or more workmen are employed. And the Central Government is the appropriate
Government in respect of establishments under the control of Central Government or a Railway
Administration or in a major port, mine or oil field. Under the Industrial Employment (Standing
Orders) Act, 1946, all RLCs(C) have been declared Certifying Officers to certify the standing
orders in respect of the establishments falling in the Central Sphere. CLC(C) and all
Dy.CLCs(C) have been declared Appellate Authorities under the Act.
17.
In the case of M.P.State Road Transport Corporation Vs. Heeralal and Chhedalal &
Others(Manu/MP 0138/1974) decided by the 5 Judges Bench of Hon’ble High Court of M.P., it has been held
that in case of any discrepancy in the Standing Orders and Rules made by the Industrial Establishment, the
former shall prevail. Hon’ble High Court has referred to another decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court in
U.P.State Electricity Board Vs. Hari Shankar Jain & another (1997) SC 65 which has laid down the same
prepositions, hence so far as the case of the applicant workman is concerned his rights will be governed by the
standard Clause 2(b) of Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Central Act 1946 mentioned as above. This is
also established on record documentary/statement of applicant workman for he has been discharging duties
similarly to that done by the regular staff.
18.
Reference of Section 25(T) and Scheduled V of the Unfair Labour Practice of the Industrial Disputes
Act,1947 which deal with prohibition of unfair labour practice requires to be mentioned here which are being
reproduced as follows:-
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2435
[CHAPTER VC
UNFAIR LABOUR PRACTICES
25T. Prohibition of unfair labour practice.—No employer or workman or a trade union, whether
registered under the Trader Unions Act, 1926 (18 of 1926), or not, shall commit any unfair
labour practice.
19.
It is now established that giving artificial break of one or two days at certain time establishes the fact
that the management of University has adopted un fair labour practice keeping in view the fact that the same
work continued after break and the same persons was engaged for that break even after breaks. Reference of
case law Secretary State of Karnataka and Uma Devi & Others 2006 AIR SCW has been taken by Management
in its written statement of defence but since in the case in hand it has been proved that the applicant workman
was not appointed through a back door entry rather he entered in the service after undergoing the recruitment
procedure prevalent at that time, hence, the law laid down in that case does not apply to the case in hand.
Judgement of Hon’ble the Apex Court in the case of State of U.P. Vs. Pooranchand Pandey Appeal (civil)
3765 of 2000 and Harinandan Prasad Vs,.Food Corporation of India & Ors. Appeal (civil) 3765 of 2000
require to be mentioned in this respect. Issue No.4 is answered accordingly.
20.

proved and he is held entitled for permanent classification in Class-III for the post of Lower Division
Clerk/Computer Operator, Assistant Gr-III with Grade Pay admissible to him from the completion of six months

preferred an appeal before the Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court challenging the illegal conviction order but the
management did not take any cognizance and passed order of dismissal on 18/05/2015. He had preferred an
appeal before the Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court and the Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court has been pleased to
admit the appeal by order dated 15/07/2015 suspending the sentence during the pendency of the appeal. He has
made prayer to the management not to pass order of dismissal till the finalization of the appeal but his prayer
was not considered.

back wages.

23/05/2015 vide letter no. AJG/HRD/10/00369/15 dated 18/05/2015.

Exhibit M-5- Photo Copy of Order of Dismissal No. AJG/HRD/10/369, dated 18/05/2015 of Sri Belal

10.
The learned lawyer of concerned workman has submitted that the concerned workman namely Belal
Khan had been working as permanent Senior Electromech in Jamadoba Colliery since long with unblemished
record of service. He has also argued that Sri Shamshad Alam @ Munna had lodged a case against the
concerned workman and Hon’ble Additional Judge, Dhanbad in Session Trial No. 459/2002 convicted and
sentenced him to undergo imprisonment for 10 years. He has further argued that the concerned workman had
preferred appeal against the said judgement before the Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court which was admitted and
sentence of the workman was suspended by the Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court but the management in the
meantime had dismissed him after issuing a notice. He has also submitted that the dismissal of the concerned
workman was illegal and void-abinitio. He has also submitted that the criminal case in which the concerned
workman was convicted was not connected with the employment of the workman and had not taken place in
course of his duty or during duty hours, so it is not a case of involvement of moral turpitude. He has also
submitted that dismissal of the concerned workman is illegal for the reason that as per certified standing order of
the company it is mandatory to issue charge-sheet, conduct domestic enquiry, to issue second show cause notice
along with enquiry proceeding and report after giving opportunity to reply. He has also argued that in this case
no charge-sheet was issued no enquiry was conducted and no second show cause notice was issued to the
workman and the Hon’ble Supreme Court in catena of decision has been pleased to hold that dismissal is illegal
and void for non-issuing of second show cause notices. He has also argued that the appeal against the conviction
is pending before the Hon’ble High Court in which the Hon’ble High Court has been pleased to hold that all the
nine accused deserve the concession of suspension of sentence, during the pendency of appeal, so there is no
conviction in the eye of law. He has also argued that the dismissal of concerned workman on the ground of
conviction in criminal case without waiting for the decision of Appeal in High Court held illegal and void as
reported in 1995 (1) PLJR-P399 and 2004(103) FLR P- 1143 (Allahabad). He has also argued that in the matter
of punishment the management had discriminated the case of workman with other workers who had also been
convicted in the criminal case, so the dismissal of the concerned workman is illegal and void.
11.
The learned lawyer of the management has submitted that the concerned workman namely Belal Khan
was convicted in session trial no. 459/2002 along with others by Additional Session Judge XIII, Dhanbad and
the act of the concerned workman comes under the definition of moral turpitude as described by the Hon’ble
Allahabad High Court. He has also argued that as per clause 19 (15) of the Certified Standing Orders of Tata
Steel Limited any workman who is convicted and sentenced on the charge involving moral turpitude is
misconduct and he is liable to be dismissed from the service of the company. He has further submitted that the
concerned workman was given chance to represent himself and he had submitted his reply which was not found
satisfactory and subsequently he was dismissed from the service. He has also argued that the suspension of
execution of sentence does not loss its efficacy merely because appellate court has suspended the execution of
sentence. He has further submitted that the concerned workman had been given an opportunity to defend himself
and thereafter he was dismissed from the service as per Certified Standing Order, so this case is not
maintainable at all.
12.
Now, the only point of determination in this case is whether the action of management of Jamadoba
Colliery of M/s. Tata Steel Ltd. in dismissing Sri Belal Khan was legal and justified?
2442 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
FINDINGS
13.
At the outset of discussion it is required to mention here that it is an admitted fact that the concerned
workman namely Belal Khan was an employee of Jharia Devision since 26/10/1976 as General Mazdoor at
Jamadoba Colliery.
It is also an admitted fact that a criminal case was registered against him as Jorapokhar PS Case No. 264 of 2000
on the basis of Fardbeyan of informant namely Samshad Alam and after conclusion of trial he was convicted
and sentenced to undergo rigorous imprisonment for 10 years vide judgement dated 13/04/2015 in Session Trial
No. 459/2002 by the Addl. Session Judge-XIII, Dhanbad.
It is further admitted by both the parties that after conviction of the concerned workman, he was served a notice
by the management as per Certified Standing Order and he had submitted his reply but the management after
finding his reply, dismissed him from the service w.e.f. 23/05/2015.
14.
Now, the only point which is required to be discussed is whether the management of Jamadoba
Colliery has got power to dismiss the concerned workman after conviction and sentencing him to undergo
imprisonment?
15.
In this regard the WW-1, Belal Khan has deposed that he had been convicted in Session Trial No. 453
of 2002 and subsequently the management had dismissed him vide order dated 18/05/2015. He has also stated
that he had preferred an appeal before the Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court which is registered as Criminal Appeal
No. (DB) 301 of 2015 and 285 of 2015. He has further stated that the Hon’ble High Court has been pleased to
admit his appeal and has also been pleased to suspend the sentence during the pendency of the appeal. He has
also stated that he had made request to the management for his reinstatement but the management had not
considered is request. He has also deposed that there are many workers who were similarly convicted in
criminal case but they were not dismissed. In the cross-examination he has deposed that till today his conviction
is maintained.
16.
Further in this regard the MW-1, Abhinav Sharma has deposed that in the Certified Standing Order it is
mentioned that any conviction in any court of law in any criminal offence involving moral turpitude is
misconduct. He has also stated that after conviction, a cause notice was issued to the Belal Khan and the same
was served in Dhanbad Jail and he had submitted his reply. He has also stated that since Belal Khan had been
convicted by a Court in a criminal case, so he was dismissed from his service. In the cross-examination he has
stated that the criminal case was not connected with the affairs of the Company or his working. He has also
stated that in the judgement it has not been mentioned that Belal Khan was convicted on the ground of moral
turpitude. He has also deposed that charge-sheet was not issued against the workman and no departmental
enquiry was conducted in this matter. He has further stated the Belal Khan had informed that appeal against the
order of conviction was preferred and the order of conviction has been stayed.
17.
Now, coming to the documentary evidence of the concerned workman it appears that Exhibit W-1 is a
photo copy of order of Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court passed in Cr. Appeal (DB) No. 301 of 2015 with Cr.
Appeal (DB) No. 285 of 2015 in which the Hon’ble High Court in Para -10 has been pleased to mention that all
the nine accused deserve the concession of suspension of sentence, during the pendency of appeal, so prayer is
allowed. Further the Hon’ble High Court has been pleased to grant bail to all the nine accused persons including
the concerned workman Irshad Alam during the pendency of the appeal, Exhibit W-2 is a order of Hon’ble High
Court passed in Cr. Revision No. 373 of 2015 in which Md. Shakur was granted bail by the Hon’ble High Court,
Exhibit W-3 is a photo copy of judgement passed by Session Judge, Dhanbad in Cr. Appeal No. 123 of 2013 by
which the Learned Session Court has been pleased to dismiss the appeal of Md. Sakur, Exhibit W-4 is a photo
copy of Judgement passed by the Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court in Cr. Appeal (D.B.) No. 21 of 2002 with Cr.
Appeal (D.B.) No. 51 of 2002 in which the appellants were acquitted, Exhibit W-5 is the photo copy of
judgment passed by Sri Prem Shankar, Judicial Megistrate, 1st Class, Dhanbad in which the accussed Laddan
Khan and Taufique Khan were held guilty for the offence u/s 323, 325, 341, 379/34 on the IPC.
18.
On the other hand the documents of the management show that the Exhibit M-1 is photo copy of
Standing Orders of Tata Iron & Steel Company, Exhibit M-2 is a judgement of Session Trial No. 459/02 passed
by Sri Mahendra Prasad, Addl. Sessions Judge-XIII, Dhanbad u/s 304 Part II/34 IPC and subsequently
sentenced him to undergo Rigorous Imprisonment for 10 years and to pay a fine of Rs. 10,000/-, Exhibit M-3 is
a photo copy of letter sent to concerned workman, Exhibit M-4 is the photo copy of letter issued by
Superintendent, Mandal Kara, Dhanbad to Agent (Chief) Tata Steel, Jamadoba Group and Exhibit M4/1 is a
letter of Belal Khan to the Agent & Chief, Jamadoba Group, requesting him not to take any disciplinary action
against him till the finalisation of the criminal appeal and Exhibit M-5 is the order of dismissal sent to the
concerned workman.
19.
It is relevant to mention here that under clause 19 of Standing Order of Tata Iron & Steel Company
there is a provision that any employee may be suspended fined or dismissed without notice or any compensation
in lieu of the notice if he is found to be guilty of misconduct, provided that suspension without pay, whether as a
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2443
punishment or pending an enquiry, shall not exceed ten days. A list of misconducts are provided under clause 19
of Standing Order subsequently and under clause 15 it has been mentioned that conviction in any court of law
for any criminal offence involving moral turpitude. Further in clause 20, of the standing order of Tata Iron &
Steel Company it is mentioned that no orders of punishment by way of suspension, dismissal or fine may be
made unless the employee concerned is informed in writing of the alleged misconduct and is given an
opportunity to explain the circumstances alleged against him. It has been also provided that the approval of the
Owner, Agent or Divisional Manager (Collieries) of the Company is required in every case of dismissal and
when circumstances appear to warrant it that officer may institute separate independent enquiries before dealing
with the charges against an employee. It has also been provided that during the period enquiries are being made
on account of alleged misconduct, the employee concerned may be suspended.
20.
Here in this case Exhibit M-3 is a letter written to Belal Khan by Agent & Chief, Jamadoba Group
seeking his representation within 7 days of the receipt of this letter regarding his conviction vide order dated
13/04/2015 passed by Additional District Judge XIII in Session Trial No. 459/2002 u/s 304/34 of IPC. Further
Exhibit M-5 is a letter addressed to Sri Belal Khan by which he was dismissed from the service on the ground
that he had been convicted by the court of law on the charge of commission of an offence under Indian Penal
Code involving moral turpitude.
21.
It is required to mention here that the concerned workman had preferred an appeal before the Hon’ble
Supreme Court and the Hon’ble High court has been pleased to suspend the sentence during the pendency of the
appeal.
In this regard it was the contention of the learned lawyer of the workman that the alleged incident was neither
connected with the employment nor the alleged occurrence committed within the terms of the Company, so the
management has no legal right to take any disciplinary action. The further contention of Ld. Lawyer of
management that on suspension of sentence, the workman could not be dismissed.
22.
He has relied on the decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court as reported in 1983, 508 (M/s. Glaxo
Laboratories Ltd Vs. P.O. L-Court). He has also relied on the decision of Hon’ble Patna High Court as reported
in 1995 (1) P.L.J.R- P399 in which it has been categorically mentioned that the power of dismissal cannot be
exercised till the appeal against conviction has been disposed of or time limit for filing, so dismissal till the
disposal of appeal is illegal.
However it was the contention of the Ld. Lawyer of management that conviction of workman by any Court Law
involving moral turpitude is liable to be dismissed even after suspension of sentence by the Appellate Court.
23.
In this regard, the learned lawyer of the management has relied on the decision of Hon’ble Supreme
Court reported in SCLJ (1994-98) Vol-1 Page 409 in which it has been mentioned that the Appellate Court has
power to suspend the execution of sentence and release an accused on bail and when the Appellate Court
suspends the execution of sentence and grants bail to an accused, the effect of the order is that sentence based on
conviction is for time being postponed or kept in abeyance during the pendency of appeal.
24.
Now in this case on the basis of conviction in a criminal case the concerned workman namely Belal
Khan had been dismissed by the management from the service after serving notice as per Rule 19(15) of
Standing Order mentioning the facts that he would be dismissed from the service of the charge of conviction
under IPC involving moral turpitude and the concerned workman had submitted his reply.
25.
The Hon’ble Supreme Court as reported in Union of India and others Vs. Ramesh Kumar, the Hon’ble
Supreme Court has been pleased to hold as follows:- “When the appellant Court suspends the execution of
sentences, and grants bail to an accused the effect of the order is that sentence based on conviction is for the
time being postponed, or kept in abeyance during the pendency of the appeal. In other words, by suspension of
execution of sentence under section 389 Cr.P.C. an accused avoids undergoing sentences pending criminal
appeal. However, the conviction continues and is not obliterated and if the conviction is not obliterated, any
action taken against a Govt. servant on a misconduct which led to his conviction by the Court of law does not
lose its efficacy merely because Appellant Court has suspended the execution of sentence.”
Here in this case the Hon’ble High Court of Jharkhand in Cr. Appeal No. 30/2015 with 285/2015 has been
pleased to suspend the sentence of the Belal Khan during the pendency of the appeal.
26.
In view of the decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court as discussed above the effect of the order of
suspension of the execution of sentences, of the workman Belal Khan is that the sentence based on conviction is
for the time being postponed, or kept in abeyance during the pendency of the appeal and conviction by Court of
Law does not lose its efficacy.
27.
Since, there is a decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court on this point, so the decision of Hon’ble Patna
High Court as reported in 1995 (1) PLJR- P-399 is not applicable in this case.
2444 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
28.
In view of above discussion the dismissal of the concerned workman namely Belal Khan on the basis
of conviction in a (Session Trial No,. 459 of 2002 under provision of 19(15) of the standing order is legal and
proper.
29.
After considering all the facts and circumstances of the case the Tribunal finds that the action of the
management of Jamadoba Colliery is legal and justified.
Hence, he is not entitled for any relief.
This is the Award of this Tribunal.

the company. The concerned workman had submitted his reply and after finding his reply not satisfactory the
company in observance of clause 19(15) of the Company’s Standing Order dismissed Sri Irshad Khan from the
service of Tata Steel Company w.e.f. 23/05/2015 vide letter no. AJG/HRD/10/00370/15 dated 18/05/2015.

10.
The learned lawyer of concerned workman has submitted that the concerned workman namely Irshad
Alam @ Irshad Khan had been declared handicapped by the Medical Board in the year 2000 due to “Traumatic
amputation”. He has also argued that Sri Shamshad Alam @ Munna had lodged a case against the concerned
workman and Hon’ble Additional Judge, Dhanbad in Session Trial No. 459/2002 convicted and sentenced him
to undergo imprisonment for 10 years. He has further argued that the concerned workman had preferred appeal
against the said judgement before the Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court which was admitted and sentence of the
workman was suspended by the Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court but the management in the meantime had
dismissed him after issuing a notice. He has also submitted that the dismissal of the concerned workman was
illegal and void-abinitio. He has also submitted that the criminal case in which the concerned workman was
convicted was not connected with the employment of the workman and had not taken place in course of his
duty or during duty hours, so it is not a case of involvement of moral turpitude. He has also submitted that
dismissal of the concerned workman is illegal for the reason that as per certified standing order of the company
it is mandatory to issue charge-sheet, conduct domestic enquiry, to issue second show cause notice along with
enquiry proceeding and report after giving opportunity to reply. He has also argued that in this case no charge-
sheet was issued, no enquiry was conducted and no second show cause notice was issued to the workman and
the Hon’ble Supreme Court in catena of decision has been pleased to hold that dismissal is illegal and void for
non-issuing of second show cause notices. He has also argued that the appeal against the conviction is pending
before the Hon’ble High Court in which the Hon’ble High Court has been pleased to hold that all the nine
accused deserve the concession of suspension of sentence, during the pendency of appeal, so there is no
conviction in the eye of law. He has also argued that the dismissal of concerned workman on the ground of
conviction in criminal case without waiting for the decision of Appeal in High Court held illegal and void as
reported in 1995 (1) PLJR-P399 and 2004(103) FLR P- 1143 (Allahabad). He has also argued that in the matter
of punishment the management had discriminated the case of workman with other workers who had also been
convicted in the criminal case, so the dismissal of the concerned workman is illegal and void.

11.
The learned lawyer of the management has submitted that the concerned workman namely Irshad Khan
@ Irshad Alam was convicted in session trial no. 459/2002 along with others by Additional Session Judge XIII,
Dhanbad and the act of the concerned workman comes under the definition of moral turpitude as described by
the Hon’ble Allahabad High Court. He has also argued that as per clause 19 (15) of the Certified Standing
Orders of Tata Steel Limited any workman who is convicted and sentenced on the charge involving moral
turpitude is misconduct and he is liable to be dismissed from the service of the company. He has further
submitted that the concerned workman was given chance to represent himself and he had submitted his reply
which was not found satisfactory and subsequently he was dismissed from the service. He has also argued that
the suspension of execution of sentence does not loss its efficacy merely because appellate court has suspended
the execution of sentence. He has further submitted that the concerned workman had been given an opportunity
to defend himself and thereafter he was dismissed from the service as per Certified Standing Order, so this case
is not maintainable at all.
12.
Now, the only point of determination in this case is whether the action of management of Jamadoba
Colliery of M/s. Tata Steel Ltd. in dismissing Sri Irshad Alam was legal and justified?
FINDINGS
13.
At the outset of discussion it is required to mention here that it is an admitted fact that the concerned
workman namely Irshad Khan @ Irshad Alam was an employee Jamadoba Colliery of Jharia Devision since
16/02/2005 as Cat-I Mazdoor.
It is also an admitted fact that a criminal case was registered against him as Jorapokhar PS Case No. 264 of 2000
on the basis of Fardbeyan of informant namely Samshad Alam and after conclusion of trial he was convicted
and sentenced to undergo rigorous imprisonment for 10 years vide judgement dated 13/04/2015 in Session Trial
No. 459/2002 by the Addl. Session Judge-XIII, Dhanbad.
It is further admitted by both the parties that after conviction of the concerned workman, he was served a notice
by the management as per Certified Standing Order and he had submitted his reply but the management after
finding his reply dismissed him from the service w.e.f. 23/05/2015.
14.
Now, the only point which is required to be discussed is whether the management of Jamadoba
Colliery has got power to dismiss the concerned workman after conviction and sentencing him to undergo
imprisonment?
15.
In this regard the WW-1, Irshad Alam has deposed that he had been convicted in Session Trial No. 453
of 2002 and subsequently the management had dismissed him vide order dated 18/05/2015. He has also stated
that he had preferred an appeal before the Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court which was registered as Criminal
Appeal No. (DB) 301 of 2015 and 285 of 2015. He has further stated that the Hon’ble High Court has been
pleased to admit his appeal and has also been pleased to suspend the sentence during the pendency of the appeal.
He has also stated that he had made request to the management for his reinstatement but the management had
not considered his request. He has also deposed that there are many workers who were similarly convicted in
criminal case but they were not dismissed. In the cross-examination he has deposed that he is also known as
Irshad Khan and his conviction is still maintained.
16.
Further in this regard the MW-1, Abhinav Sharma has deposed that in the Certified Standing Order it is
mentioned that any conviction in any court of law in any criminal offence involving moral turpitude is
misconduct. He has also stated that after conviction, a show cause notice was issued to the Irshad Alam and the
same was served in Dhanbad Jail and he had submitted his reply. He has also stated that since Irshad Khan had
been convicted by a Court in a criminal case, so he was dismissed from his service. In the cross-examination he
has stated that the criminal case was not connected with the affairs of the Company or his working. He has also
stated that in the judgement it has not been mentioned that Irshad Khan was convicted on the ground of moral
turpitude. He has also deposed that charge-sheet was not issued against the workman and no departmental
enquiry was conducted in this matter. He has further stated the Irshad Khan had informed that appeal against the
order of conviction was preferred and the order of conviction has been stayed.
17.
Now, coming to the documentary evidence of the concerned workman it appears that Exhibit W-1 is a
photo copy of order of Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court passed in Cr. Appeal (DB) No. 301 of 2015 with Cr.
Appeal (DB) No. 285 of 2015 in which the Hon’ble High Court in Para -10 has been pleased to mention that all
the nine accused deserve the concession of suspension of sentence, during the pendency of appeal, so prayer is
allowed. Further the Hon’ble High Court has been pleased to grant bail to all the nine accused persons including
the concerned workman Irshad Alam during the pendency of the appeal, Exhibit W-2 is a order of Hon’ble High
Court passed in Cr. Revision No. 373 of 2015 in which Md. Shakur was granted bail by the Hon’ble High Court,
Exhibit W-3 is a photo copy of judgement passed by Session Judge, Dhanbad in Cr. Appeal No. 123 of 2013 by
which the Learned Session Court has been pleased to dismiss the appeal of Md. Sakur, Exhibit W-4 is a photo
copy of Judgement passed by the Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court in Cr. Appeal (D.B.) No. 21 of 2002 with Cr.
Appeal (D.B.) No. 51 of 2002 in which the appellants were acquitted, Exhibit W-5 is the photo copy of
2456 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
judgment passed by Sri Prem Shankar, Judicial Megistrate, 1st Class, Dhanbad in which the accussed Laddan
Khan and Taufique Khan were held guilty for the offence u/s 323, 325, 341, 379/34 on the IPC.
18.
On the other hand the documents of the management show that the Exhibit M-1 is photo copy of
Standing Orders of Tata Iron & Steel Company, Exhibit M-2 is a judgement of Session Trial No. 459/02 passed
by Sri Mahendra Prasad, Addl. Sessions Judge-XIII, Dhanbad u/s 304 Part II/34 IPC and subsequently
sentenced him to undergo Rigorous Imprisonment for 10 years and to pay a fine of Rs. 10,000/-, Exhibit M-3 is
a photo copy of letter sent to concerned workman, Exhibit M-4 is the photo copy of letter issued by
Superintendent, Mandal Kara, Dhanbad to Agent (Chief) Tata Steel, Jamadoba Group and Exhibit M4/1 is a
letter of Irshad Alam to the Agent & Chief, Jamadoba Group, requesting him not to take any disciplinary action
against him till the finalisation of the criminal appeal and Exhibit M-5 is the order of dismissal sent to the
concerned workman.
19.
It is relevant to mention here that under clause 19 of Standing Order of Tata Iron & Steel Company
there is a provision that any employee may be suspended, fined or dismissed without notice or any
compensation in lieu of the notice if he is found to be guilty of misconduct, provided that suspension without
pay, whether as a punishment or pending an enquiry, shall not exceed ten days. A list of misconducts are
provided under clause 19 of Standing Order subsequently and under clause 15 it has been mentioned that
conviction in any court of law for any criminal offence involving moral turpitude. Further in clause 20, of the
standing order of Tata Iron & Steel Company it is mentioned that no orders of punishment by way of
suspension, dismissal or fine may be made unless the employee concerned is informed in writing of the alleged
misconduct and is given an opportunity to explain the circumstances alleged against him. It has been also
provided that the approval of the Owner, Agent or Divisional Manager (Collieries) of the Company is required
in every case of dismissal and when circumstances appear to warrant it that officer may institute separate
independent enquiries before dealing with the charges against an employee. It has also been provided that during
the period enquiries are being made on account of alleged misconduct, the employee concerned may be
suspended.
20.
Here in this case Exhibit M-3 is a letter written to Irshad Khan by Agent & Chief, Jamadoba Group
seeking his representation within 7 days of the receipt of this letter regarding his conviction vide order dated
13/04/2015 passed by Additional District Judge XIII in Session Trial No. 459/2002 u/s 304/34 of IPC. Further
Exhibit M-5 is a letter addressed to Sri Irshad Khan by which he was dismissed from the service on the ground
that he had been convicted by the court of law on the charge of commission of an offence under Indian Penal
Code involving moral turpitude.
21.
It is required to mention here that the concerned workman had preferred an appeal before the Hon’ble
Supreme Court and the Hon’ble High court has been pleased to suspend the sentence during the pendency of the
appeal.
In this regard it was the contention of the learned lawyer of the workman that the alleged incident was neither
connected with the employment nor the alleged occurrence committed within the terms of the Company, so the
management has no legal right to take any disciplinary action. The further contention of Ld. Lawyer of
management that on suspension of sentence, the workman could not be dismissed.
22.
He has relied on the decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court as reported in 1983, 508 (M/s. Glaxo
Laboratories Ltd Vs. P.O. L-Court). He has also relied on the decision of Hon’ble Patna High Court as reported
in 1995 (1) P.L.J.R- P399 in which it has been categorically mentioned that the power of dismissal cannot be
exercised till the appeal against conviction has been disposed of or time limit for filing, so dismissal till the
disposal of appeal is illegal.
However it was the contention of the Ld. Lawyer of management that conviction of workman by any Court Law
involving moral turpitude is liable to be dismissed even after suspension of sentence by the Appellant Court.
23.
In this regard, the learned lawyer of the management has relied on the decision of Hon’ble Supreme
Court reported in SCLJ (1994-98) Vol-1 Page 409 in which it has been mentioned that the Appellate Court has
power to suspend the execution of sentence and release an accused on bail and when the Appellate Court
suspends the execution of sentence and grants bail to an accused, the effect of the order is that sentence based on
conviction is for time being postponed, or kept in abeyance during the pendency of appeal.
24.
Now in this case on the basis of conviction in a criminal case the concerned workman namely Irshad
Alam had been dismissed by the management from the service after serving notice as per Rule 19(15) of
Standing Order mentioning the facts that he would be dismissed from the service of the charge of conviction
under IPC involving moral turpitude and the concerned workman had submitted his reply.
25.
The Hon’ble Supreme Court as reported in Union of India and others Vs. Ramesh Kumar, the Hon’ble
Supreme Court has been pleased to hold as follows:- “When the appellant Court suspends the execution of
sentences, and grants bail to an accused the effect of the order is that sentence based on conviction is for the
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2457
time being postponed, or kept in abeyance during the pendency of the appeal. In other words, by suspension of
execution of sentence under section 389 Cr.P.C. an accused avoids undergoing sentences pending criminal
appeal. However, the conviction continues and is not obliterated and if the conviction is not obliterated, any
action taken against a Govt. servant on a misconduct which led to his conviction by the Court of law does not
lose its efficacy merely because Appellant Court has suspended the execution of sentence.”
Here in this case the Hon’ble High Court of Jharkhand in Cr. Appeal No. 301/2015 with 285/2015 has been
pleased to suspend the sentence of the Irshad Alam during the pendency of the appeal.
26.
In view of the decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court as discussed above the effect of the order of
suspension of the execution of sentences of the workman Irshad Alam is that the sentence based on conviction is
for the time being postponed, or kept in abeyance during the pendency of the appeal and conviction by Court of
Law does not lose its efficacy.
27.
Since, there is a decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court on this point, so the decision of Hon’ble Patna
High Court as reported in 1995 (1) PLJR- P399 is not applicable in this case.
28.
In view of above discussion the dismissal of the concerned workman namely Irshad Alam on the basis
of conviction in a (Session Trial No,. 459 of 2002 under provision of 19(15) of the standing order is legal and
proper.
29.
After considering all the facts and circumstances of the case the Tribunal finds that the action of the
management of Jamadoba Colliery is legal and justified.
Hence, he is not entitled for any relief.
This is the Award of this Tribunal.

BEFORE THE CENTRAL GOVERNMENT INDUSTRIAL TRIBUNAL NO.1, DHANBAD
In the matter of reference U/S 10 (1) (d) (2A) of I.D.Act. 1947.
Reference: No. 36/2013
Employer in relation to the management of Jamadoba Colliery of M/s. Tata Steel Ltd.
AND
Their workman.

Dated 27/09/2022
AWARD
By Order No.L-20012/35/2013- (IR(CM-I)) dated 22.08.2013, the Central Government in the Ministry of
Labour has, in exercise of the powers conferred by clause (d) of sub-section (1) and sub –section (2A) of
Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, referred the following disputes for adjudication to this Tribunal:
SCHEDULE
“Whether the action of the management of 6&7 Pits Colliery, Jamadoba of M/s. Tata Steel Ltd., in
not protecting the wages of Sri Kanchan Yadav and Shri Ashok Kumar Singh by way of fixing less
wages, while coversion from P.R. Stone Cutter to T.R. Stone Cutter is legal and justified? To what
relief are the workmen concerned entitled to?”
2. After receipt of the reference, both the parties were noticed. The Organizing Secretary, R.C.M.S. 6&7 Pits
Jamadoba has filed his written statement of claim on 23/09/2013 and the management of 6&7 Pits Colliery,
Jamadoba of M/s. Tata Steel Ltd. has filed its written statement cum rejoinder on 15/05/2014.
The Organizing Secretary, R.C.M.S. 6&7 Pits Jamadoba has filed rejoinder to the written statement of
the management on 11/09/2014.
3.
The claim of the sponsoring union as per its written statement is as follows:-
That the concerned workmen namely Sri Kanchan Yadav and Sri Ashok Kumar Singh were appointed
as piece-rated Stone Cutter w.e.f. 21/04/1983 and they were working as a piece-rated Stone Cutter continuously
but all of sudden the management vide letter dated 14/17-12-2011 re-designated the concerned workmen as
time-rated Stone Cutter w.e.f. 21/12/2011 on the ground of rationalisation of the manpower. The management
arbitrarily and whimsically fixed the basic rate of pay of the concerned workman as Rs. 675.17/- in the scale of
Rs. 399.26 – 3% - 721.11, so the management had changed the service condition and fixed the earning and
basic pay to the prejudice of the workmen which is not in accordance with the law. The basic pay and the daily
earning of workmen cannot be changed without complying the mandatory provision of section 9A of the I.D.
Act, 1947, so the management has no right legal or otherwise to change the designation and daily earning as
well as basic pay of the concerned workmen. The management had not issued any notice under section 9A of
the Act before changing the designation and daily earning. The concerned wokmen had represented before the
management but it had no effect. The concerned workmen had suffered a huge financial loss because of the act
of the management and the action of management fixing less wages by changing designation was illegal,
arbitrary and unjustified and against the principle of natural justice.
A prayer has been made to pass an Award in their favour.
4.
The case of the management as per its written statement is as follows:-
That the present reference is not maintainable either in law or in facts. The concerned workmen namely
Sri Kanchan Yadav and Sri Ashok Kumar Singh, were employed w.e.f. 21/04/1983 as Piece Rated Stone Cutter
at 6&7 Pits Colliery and because of rationalization of manpower at 6&7 Pits Colliery, the requirement of Piece
Rated Stone Cutter had been reduced, so in order to engage them gainfully, the management had issued a
2476 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
proposal to the workmen regarding re-designation and placing them to work as Time Rated Stone Cutter
Category-IV w.e.f. 21/12/2011 vide letter no. 6&7/MRO/F-18/1450/11 dated 14/17-12-2011 on acceptance of
the terms and conditions mentioned in the letter. The aforesaid letter had been sent to both the concerned
workmen mentioning therein that their basic rate had been fixed at Rs. 675.17 per day after protecting their
SPRA in the scale of Rs. 399.26- 3%- 721.11. It had also been mentioned in the aforesaid letter that if the terms
and conditions mentioned therein were acceptable to them, then they would report to the Sr. Manager
(Operation) 6&7 Pits Colliery for their duty after signing the duplicate copy of the said letter. The concerned
workmen had accepted the proposal of management by signing of duplicate copy of the letter as token of
acceptance of the same and started working as Time Rated Stone Cutter w.e.f. 21/12/2011. The workmen were
satisfied with their wages and were working as Time Rated Stone Cutter Category-IV for one year but the Trade
Union Leader unnecessarily egitated the case of the concerned workmen.
A prayer has been made to pass an Award in its favour.
The management by way of rejoinder has stated that the statement made in Para-1, 2 and 13 of the
written statement of union are matter of records and the statement made in Para-3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14
to 17 of the written statement of union are not correct.
5.
The sponsoring union has filed rejoinder to the written of management and has stated that the
statement made in Para-2, 4, 5 and 6 of the written of the management are false and denied and the statement
made in Para-3 of the written statement of management is matter of record.
6.
The sponsoring union has examined only one witness. He is WW-1, Ashok Singh.
The WW-1, Ashok Singh has deposed that he is one of the concerned workmen in this reference case
and he is also adducing evidence on behalf of other concerned workmen. He has also stated that he and other
concerned workmen were appointed as a Piece Rated Stone Cutter w.e.f. 21/04/1983 and since then they were
working as Piece Rated Stone Cutter but the management vide letter dated 14/17-12-2000 changed their
designation as Time Rated Stone Cutter w.e.f. 21/12/2011 on the ground of rationalisation. He has further
deposed that the management had illegally fixed their basic pay at Rs. 675.17 in the scale of 399.26 - 3% -
721.11 and by this act management had changed their designation and reduced their basic pay and daily earning
without giving any notice u/s 9A of the I.D. Act at the fag end of their service. He has further stated that before
affecting the change, their earning/daily basic wages with SPRA was approximately Rs. 990-1000 per day and
because of the this change they are suffering from huge financial loss.
In the cross-examination he has stated that management had forcibly given an order to him to work as
Time Rated workman from piece rated workman in 2011 and the Exhibit M-1 is the said letter. He has denied
the suggestion that his claim is not justified.
7.
The sponsoring union has not proved any documents in support of its case.
8.
The management has examined only one witness. He is MW-1, Shiv Shankar.
The MW-1, Shiv Shankar has deposed that Sri Kanchan Yadav and Sri Ashok Kumar Singh, were
employed as Piece Rated Stone Cutter w.e.f. 21/04/1983 at 6&7 Pits Colliery and management had issued a
proposal to the concerned workmen that they were re-designated and placed to work as Time Rated Stone
Cutter (Cat-IV) w.e.f. 21/12/2011 vide letter no. 6&7/MRO/F-18/1450/11 dated 14/17-12-11 on acceptance of
terms and conditions as mentioned in the letter. He has also stated that it was clearly mentioned in the letter that
their basic rate had been fixed at Rs. 675.17 per day after protecting their SPRA in the scale of Rs. 399.26 – 3%
- 721.11 and if the terms and conditions were acceptable to them they would report to Sr. Manager (Operation)
6&7 Pits Colliery. He has also deposed that both the concerned workman had accepted the proposal of
management by way of signing of duplicate copy and they started working as Time Rated Stone Cutter w.e.f.
21/12/2011 without raising any objection, so the workmen are not entitled to any relief.
In the cross-examination he has deposed that before converting to Piece Rated Worker to Time Rated
Worker the management had not issued a notice u/s 9A of the I.D. Act as the nature of both the work was same.
He has denied the suggestion that due to conversion the earning of the workmen were reduced and they have
documents to show that the workmen had accepted the terms and conditions.
9.
The management has proved the following documents in support of its case which are marked as:-
Exhibit M-1- Photo Copy of Letter dated 14/17-12-11 issued by Head, 6&7 Pits Jamadoba Colliery
addressed to Sri Kanchan Yadav, P/R. Stone Cutter 6&7 Pits Jamadoba Colliery regarding his
acceptance of the terms and conditions of the letter.
Exhibit M-2-Photo Copy of Letter dated 14/17-12-11 issued by Head, 6&7 Pits Jamadoba Colliery
addressed to Sri Ashok Singh regarding acceptance of his terms and conditions as mentioned in the
letter.
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2477
Exhibit M-3- Original Copy of Service Record of Ashok Singh.
Exhibit M-4- Original Copy of Service Record of Kanchan Yadav.
10.
The learned lawyer appearing on behalf of the concerned workmen has submitted before the Court that
both the workmen namely Sri Kanchan Yadav and Ashok Kr. Singh were appointed as Piece Rated Stone Cutter
on 21/04/1983 and they were working continuously on the same post but after 28 years, the management re-
designated them as Time Rated Stone Cutter w.e.f. 21/12/2011 without following the mandatory provision of
section 9A of the I.D. Act. He has also argued that because of the re-designation the workmen had suffered
huge financial loss. He has further argued that the concerned workmen namely Ashok Kumar Singh had been
examined and he has supported his case and the management had examined only one witness who has admitted
that before conversion from Piece Rated Stone Cutter to Time Rated Stone Cutter, no notice u/s 9A of I.D. Act
was given to the workmen as the nature of work was same, so the action of the management is illegal and void
ab initio. He has also submitted that the nature of job of Piece Rated Stone Cutter and Time Rated Stone Cutter
are same, so there was no reason to change the designation. He has further submitted that the order of Hon’ble
Supreme Court in several cases has been pleased to hold that the condition of service cannot be changed without
notice u/s 9A of the I.D. Act.
11.
On the other hand the learned lawyer of management has submitted that the concerned workmen were
served notice mentioning therein that their basic rate had been fixed at Rs. 675.17 per day after protecting their
SPRA in the scale of Rs. 399.26 – 3% - 721.11 and they were requested that if the terms and conditions were
acceptable to them then they would report to Sr. Manager (Oprn.), 6&7 Pits Colliery for their duty. He has also
submitted that both the employees had accepted the proposal of the management by way of signing the
duplicate copy of letter and they started working as Time Rated Stone Cutter w.e.f. 21/12/11.
12.
Now, the only point of determination in this reference is whether the action of the management of 6&7
Pits Colliery, Jamadoba of M/s. Tata Steel Ltd, in not protecting the wages of Sri Kanchan Yadav and Sri
Ashok Kumar Singh by way of fixing less wages, while conversion from P.R. Stone Cutter to T.R. Stone Cutter
is legal and justified?
FINDINGS
13.
At the outset of discussion it is required to mention here that it is an admitted fact that both the workers
namely Sri Kanchan Yadav and Sri Ashok Kumar Singh were working as Piece Rated Stone Cutter w.e.f.
21/04/1983 and they continued on the same post but on 21/12/2011 their services were converted into Time
Rated Stone Cutter.
14.
Now, the question arises whether the management of 6&7 Pits Colliery, Jamadoba of M/s. Tata Steel
Ltd had fixed less wage while converting the services of Kanchan Yadav and Ashok Kumar Singh from Piece
Rated Stone Cutter to Time Rated Stone Cutter on 21/12/2011.
15.
It is the case of the sponsoring union that the management had arbitrarily and whimsically fixed the
basic rate of pay of concerned workmen as Rs. 675.17 in the scale of Rs. 399.26 – 3% - 721.11 which amounts
to change in the service condition and deduction of the earning and basic pay of the concerned workmen which
is violation to section 9A of the I.D. Act.
16.
On the other hand it is the case of the management that the basic wages of the concerned workmen
have been fixed at rate of 675.17 per day after protecting their SPRA in the scale of Rs. 399.26 – 3% - 721.11
and in this regard letters were sent to the both the concerned workmen to which they had accepted the terms and
conditions and thereafter their services were converted to Time Rated Stone Cutter w.e.f. 21/12/2011.
17.
In this regard WW-1, Ashok Singh has deposed that his designation had been changed from Piece
Rated Stone Cutter to Time Rated Stone Cutter w.e.f. 21/12/2011 and had illegally fixed their basic pay at the
rate of Rs. 675.17 in the scale of Rs. 399.26 – 3% - 721.11 without giving notice u/s 9A of the I.D. Act as a
result they were suffering huge financial loss. He has also stated that before affecting change their earning has
Rs. 990-1000 per day.
The MW-1, Shiv Shankar has deposed that both the concerned workmen were working as Piece Rated
Stone Cutter at 6&7 Pits Colliery and management had issued a proposal to them for their re-designation as
Time Rated Stone Cutter which was accepted by them and subsequently their basic rate has been fixed at Rs.
675.17 per day after protecting their SPRA in the scale of Rs. 399.26 – 3% - 721.11.
18.
Now, coming to the documentary evidence of both the parties it is relevant to mention here that the
sponsoring union has not proved any documents in support of its case.
However, the management has proved some documents in support of its case.
After analysing the documents of management it appears that Exhibit M-1 is a letter of management of
6&7 Pits Jamadoba Colliery sent to Kanchan Yadav seeking his acceptance of the terms and conditions of the
2478 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
letter, the Exhibit M-2 is a letter issued by the management of 6&7 Pits Jamadoba Colliery to Ashok Singh
seeking his acceptance of the terms and conditions as mentioned in the letter, Exhibit M-3 is service record of
Ashok Singh and Exhibit M-4 is the service record of Kanchan Yadav.
19.
After examining the Exhibit M-1 and Exhibit M-2 it is very much clear that the management of 6&7
Pits Jamadoba colliery had issued letter to Kanchan Yadav and Ashok Singh respectively regarding change of
their designation from Piece Rated Stone Cutter to Time Rated Stone Cutter Category-IV with basic wage of
pay Rs. 675.17 per day protecting their SPRA in the scale of Rs. 399.26 – 3% - 721.11 and if the conditions
were acceptable to them then report for their duty to Sr. Manager (Oprn.) of their colliery after putting signature
on duplicate copy of letter. It appears that Kanchan Yadav and Ashok Kumar Singh had put their signatures on
duplicate copy of the respective letters and joined the duty, so it appears that both the concerned workmen had
accepted the terms and conditions regarding change of their designation. Further after going through the Exhibit
M-3 which is service excerpts of Ashok Kumar Singh, it appears that on 21/12/2011 rate of payment was fixed
at Rs.675.17, on 01/07/2012 it was revised to Rs. 695.43 and on 21/12/2012 it was fixed as Rs. 716.29 after his
conversion from Piece Rated Stone Cutter to Time Rated Stone Cutter. Moreover as per Exhibit M-4 the rate of
wages of Kanchan Yadav was fixed as Rs. 675.17 on 21/12/2011, it was revised to Rs.695.43 on 01/07/2012
and it was further revised on 21/12/2012 as Rs. 716.29 after his conversion from Piece Rated Stone Cutter to
Time Rated Stone Cutter.
20.
The concerned workmen have filed the pay slip of March 2012 of Kanchan Yadav and Janurary 2012
of Ashok Kumar Singh and both the pay slip were of after the change of designation of concerned workmen
from P.R. to T.R. The concerned workmen have not filed any documents of their wages before change of their
designation from P.R. To T.R. to show that their wages had been fixed less then what they were getting earlier.
21.
The WW-1 Ashok Singh in his evidence has deposed that before affecting change their earning were
Rs. 990-1000 per day but no such documents were filed before the Tribunal.
In absence of any such documents filed by the concerned workmen on this point regarding payment of
more wages before their conversion from P.R. to T.R. it will be presumed that the wages of concerned workmen
were not fixed less than the earlier after change from Piece Rated Stone Cutter to Time Rated Stone Cutter.
22.
The learned lawyer of concerned workman has argued that the designation and wage of workmen
were changed without giving notice to them u/s 9A of the I.D. Act.
In this regard it is relevant to mention here that the management had issued notice to both the workmen
separately (Exhibit M-1 and Exhibit M-2) and they had accepted the change of service condition by putting
their signature, so the argument of the learned lawyer of concerned workmen is not tenable.
23.
After considering all the facts and circumstances of the case the Tribunal comes to the conclusion that
the management of 6&7 Pits Jamadoba Colliery of M/s. Tata Steel Ltd. had protected the wages of concerned
workmen namely Kanchan Yadav and Ashok Kumar Singh by way of fixing their wages while conversion from
Piece Rated Stone Cutter to Time Rated Stone Cutter is legal and justified.
Hence, the concerned workmen are not entitled to any relief.
This is the Award of this Tribunal.

AWARD
By Order No.L-20012/96/2008- (IR(CM-I)) dated 03.12.2008, the Central Government in the Ministry
of Labour has, in exercise of the powers conferred by clause (d) of sub-section (1) and sub –section (2A) of
Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, referred the following disputes for adjudication to this Tribunal:
SCHEDULE
“i) Whether the action of the Management of Mines Rescue Station of M/s. BCCL, Dhansar in
not regularizing the services of Shri Saroj Kumar Singh as Store Keeper/Assistant Store Keeper
is justified and legal? ii) To what relief is the concerned workman entitled and from what date?”
2. After receipt of the reference, both the parties were noticed. The Representative of concerned
workman/union has filed his written statement of claim on 13/02/2009 and the management of Mines Rescue
Station, Dhanbad has filed its written statement cum rejoinder on 17/06/2009.
The Representative of concerned workman/union has filed rejoinder to the written statement of the
management on 21/10/2009.
3.
The case of the claim as per written statement of the sponsoring union is as follows:-
That the concerned workman namely Saroj Kumar Singh bearing P No. 0133665 was appointed as
General Mazdoor on 22/11/1994 and posted at Bararee Colliery but he had been transferred to Mines Rescue
Station, Dhansar on 22/01/1998 where he was deployed as Assistant Store Keeper because of exigency of work.
After deployment in the store of the Mines Rescue Station, Dhansar, the concerned workman had been
continuously performing his job of Asstt. Storekeeper up to 26/02/2004 and after superannuation of Sri Anil
Kumar Chakraborty, Sr. Store Keeper he was given fulfledged charge of whole store on and from 29/02/2004
vide office order no. Rescue/1048 Dt- 26/2/2004. In the meantime Sri Amal Kumar Bhattacharji, Sr. Store
Keeper had joined at Mines Rescue Station, Dhansar then concerned workman was assigned to look after the
job of Area Store vide office order no. Rescue/674 Dt-01/12/2004. After that on 28/29-12-2004 one office order
no. Rescue/765 was issued under the signature of General Manager (Rescue) in which it had been instructed
that Saroj Kumar Singh, the concerned workman shall handover the charge of both stores to Sri Bhattacharji
and he would assist Sri Bhattacharji in day to day work. Subsequently vide office order no. Rescue/943 dated
26/28-2-2006 was issued by General Manager(Rescue) by which it was instructed to Sri Saroj Kumar Singh to
assist Sri Bhattacharji in his day to day work, so in this way the concerned workman had worked for more than
10 years as Store Keeper/Sr. Store Keeper with entire satisfaction of the management and unblemished record.
The management had assured the workman/sponsoring union that the case of the workman/sponsoring union
2480 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
would be settled amicably but in spite of their repeated assurance, the management did not regularise him as
Store Keeper/Asst. Store Keeper and the management had given him grade of Hindi Typist as Grade-III on
05/01/2004. The concerned workman had claimed his regularisation as Store Keeper in the management of
Rescue Station, Dhansar but he was transferred to Sudamdih which is very illegal and arbitrary. The concerned
workman had undergone huge loss of Rs. 3000 per month from last 10 years and had not been regularised in
proper grade. The sponsoring union has raised the dispute before the ALC, Dhanbad and subsequently the
reference was made. The sponsoring union had made claim to regularise the service of Sri Saroj Kumar Singh
as Store Keeper with retrospective effect i.e. 02/02/1998 and Sr. Store Keeper w.e.f. 2.2.2004 with all fringe
and consequential benefits.
4.
The case of the management as per its written statement is as follows:-
That the concerned workman namely Saroj Kumar Singh was appointed in the service of the Company
as General Mazdoor in Category-1 on 22.11.1994 and he was transferred on his own request from Bararee
Colliery, Lodna Area to Mines Rescue Station, Dhansar as General Mazdoor Category-1 where he had joined
on 20/10/1997. After that the concerned workman had applied for the post of Hindi Typist (Trainee) and he was
selected and posted as Hindi Typist (Trainee) w.e.f. 05/01/2004. After successful completion of his training
period he was regularised as Hindi Typist in Clerical Grade-II w.e.f. 18/11/2005. The concerned workman was
never deployed to work as Store Keeper (Assistant Store Keeper). The Store Personnel Cadre has different line
of promotion than that of General Clerical Cadre. The post of Assistant Store Keeper is in Clerical Grade-II
through D.P.C. of those who have put in 3 years experience as Store Issue Clerk in Gr. III and the post of Store
Keeper is in Clerical Gr. I and promoted through D.P.C. of those who have put in 3 years experience as Asst.
Store Keeper in Clerical Grade-II and so on, so the claim of the concerned workman for his regularisation as
Store Keeper/Asst. Store Keeper does not arise. The concerned workman was transferred to Headquarters,
Koyla Bhawan vide office order no. 7241-50, dated 13/14.5.2008 and was regularised vide office order no.
Rescue/102, dated 20/05/2008 but he did not comply the order. The concerned workman was subsequently
posted at RRRT, Sudamdih vide order no. 347, dated 01/08/2008 and the concerned workman had tried to
pressurise the management for his regularisation as Store Keeper and for withdrawal of his transfer order. The
concerned workman had threatened the management of his self immolation in front of the office the General
Manager (Rescue) on 16/09/2008 but after intervention of the District Authority, CID wing etc. he had dropped
his programme. The concerned workman is not entitled for regularisation in another cadre, so the claim of the
concerned workman is not maintainable.
A prayer has been made to pass an Award in favour of management.
The management by way of rejoinder has mentioned that the statement made in Para 1 of the written
statement of workman is matter of record, the statement made in Para 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13 and 16 of the

made in Para 14 of the written statement of workman is without any basis and without supported with
documents etc and the statement made in Para 15 of the written statement of workman is about raising of
industrial dispute.

dated 27/01/1998. He has also submitted that the workman became well versed/experienced in the job of Store
Keeper because of his six years experience in store work i.e. 02/02/1998 to beginning of 2004, so he was
entrusted /assigned to take charge of store of Mines Rescue Station from Sr. Store Keeper Sri Anil Kumar
2482 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
Chakraborty vide office order no. Rescue/1048 dated 26/02/2004. He has further argued that the concerned
workman was assigned to take over the charge of Area office store and subsequently after retirement of Sri
Chakraborty, Sr. Store keeper. He was also directed to take charge of both the stores. He has further argued that
subsequently the concerned workman was directed to hand over the charge of Mines Rescue Station and Area
office store to Sri Amal Kr. Bhattacharjee, Sr. Store Keeper and was directed to assist Sri Amal Kumar
Bhattacharjee for his work. He has further submitted that the concerned workman was transferred from Mines
Rescue Station Store to Security Headquarter Koyla Bhawan but the said office order was kept in abeyance and
the concerned workman was allowed to retain at Mines Rescue Station. He has also submitted that the
concerned workman had worked for more than ten years in the job of Store Keeper with entire satisfaction of
higher authority and unblemished record, so he requested the management for his regularization on the job of
Store Keeper but management started harassing him by way of issuing transfer order. He has further submitted
that the concerned workman had raised an industrial dispute before the Assistant Labour Commissioner. He has
further submitted that the workman had been so much harassed that he was compelled to commit self
immolation but due to intervention of the District Administration he stopped his agitational program. He has
also argued that the management had not regularised the service of the concerned workman as Store Keeper and
vide letter dated 15/18.05.2009 he was transferred to Bastacolla Area. He has also argued that management had
not produced any documents to show that he had worked as Hindi Typist and he was deployed to do the job of
Office Superintendent/Supervisory work. He has further submitted that the concerned workman is entitled for
regularization as Store Keeper from 2.2.1998 in Gr. II, from 2002 in Gr. I, from 2.2.2004 as Sr. Store Keeper in
special grade and Technical Supervisory grade from 02/02/2008 or as Office Superintendent from 30/09/2013 in
special grade/grade-A. He has further submitted that management had deprived the concerned workman from
his regularisation of his service as Store Keeper.
11.
The learned lawyer of management has submitted before the Tribunal that the concerned workman was
appointed as General Mazdoor Category-I at Bararee Colliery and he was transferred to office of Mines Rescue
Station, Dhansar. He has also submitted that on the request of the concerned workman was selected to the post
of Hindi Typist, his service was regularised in Clerical Gr. III w.e.f. 12/09/2003 and was subsequently
regularised in Clerical Gr. II with notional seniority w.e.f. 05/01/2005. He has further submitted that the
concerned workman was to take charge of stores of MRS temporarily till the posting of new incumbent as Store
Keeper after retirement to Anil Kumar Charkaborty on 29/02/2004. He has further submitted that the post of
Assistant Store Keeper is in Clerical Gr. II and as per Cadre Scheme those who are having 3 years experience as
Store Issue Clerk in Gr. III are promoted through DPC to the post of Store Keeper and the post of Store Keeper
is in Clerical Gr. I and is filled up through DPC. He has also submitted that at present Saroj Kumar Singh is
transferred and posted as Typist (Hindi) vide office order no. 385 dated 17/06/2009 and everywhere his
designation is Hindi Typist, so he is not working as Store Keeper/Assistant Store Keeper.
12.
Now, the only point of determination in this reference case is whether the action of the management of
Mines Rescue Station of M/s. BCCL, Dhansar in not regularizing the services of Sri Saroj Kumar Singh as
Store Keeper/Assistant Store Keeper is justified and legal?
FINDINGS
13.
At the outset of discussion it is required to mention here that it is an admitted fact the Sri Saroj Kumar
Singh the concerned workman was initially appointed as General Mazdoor on 22/11/1994 at Bararee Colliery
and thereafter he was transferred to Mines Rescue Station, Dhansar.
14.
It is the case of the workman that he had worked for more than 12 years as Assistant Store Keeper or
Store Keeper, so he had attained the expertise, and as such he should have been regularised in the service of
Store Keeper.

post of Hindi Typist and his service was regularised in Clerical Grade III w.e.f. 12/09/2003 and was
subsequently regularised in Clerical Grade II with notional seniority w.e.f. 05/01/2005. It is further case of the
management that the Personnel Store Cadre and the General Clerical Cadre have different line of promotion, so
the service of the concerned workman cannot be regularised in the Store Personnel Cadre.
15.
In this regard the WW-1, Saroj Kumar Singh has categorically stated that he was transferred to
General Manager Office Mines Rescue Station vide office order dated 27/01/1998. He has also stated that on
the retirement of Sri Anil Kumar Chakraborty, the Store Keeper on 29/02/2004, he had taken the fulfledged
charge of store from him vide office order dated 26/02/2004. He has also stated that on transfer of Sri Amal Kr.
Bhattacharjee, Sr. Store Keeper to Rescue Station Dhanbad, Sri Bhattacharjee had been asked to take charge
from him on 08/10/2004 and accordingly he had taken charge from him on 01/12/2004. He has also stated that
he had been asked to assist Sri Amal Kr. Bhattacharji in his day to day work vide office order dated
26/28.2.2005 he had been asked to assist Sri Bhattacharji, Sr. Store Keeper. He has also stated that he had been
performing the work of Store Keeper at Mines Rescue Station, Dhansar up to 08/06/2009 and after retirement of

2484 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
18.
On the other hand the documents of management show that Exhibit M-1 is Office Order dated
15/18.05.2009 by which Sri Saroj Kumar Singh, Hindi Typist posted at RRT Sudamdih under General Manager
MRS, Dhansar was transferred to Bastacolla Area in his existing capacity (Exhibit W-11), Exhibit M-2 is a

requesting him to allow him to mark his attendance from 09/06/2009 to 24/06/2009, Exhibit M-7 is a copy of
LPC, Exhibit M-8 is Copy of Cadre Scheme for Ministerial Staff General Clerical Cadre Annexure-VIII-1 and
Exhibit M-8/1 is Cadre Scheme for Ministerial Staff Store Personnel Cadre Annexure –VIII-2.
19.
Now, after going through the oral and documentary evidence of both the parties it is very much clear
that the concerned workman namely Saroj Kumar Singh had been appointed as General Mazdoor Category-I on
22/11/1994 and was posted at Bararee Colliery. It further appears that he was subsequently attached with the
Mines Rescue Station Store in his existing capacity vide letter dated 27/01/1998 (Exhibit W-1). It also appears
that in the meantime vide office order dated 26/02/2004 (Exhibit W-2) Sri Saroj Kumar, Hindi Typist was
directed to take charge of the stores of Mines Rescue Station temporarily till the new incumbent, so he was
made Incharge of the Mines Rescue Station, Dhansar temporarily and he was not posted permanently as store
keeper. Further the office order dated 08/10/2004 (Exhibit W-3) shows that Sri Amal Kumar Bhattacharjee
posted as Store Keeper Mines Rescue Station, Dhansar and he was advised to take over the charge of stores of
Mines Rescue Station, Dhansar/Area Office from the Saroj Kumar Singh, Clerical Gr. III. Further the Exhibit
W-4 and W-6 show that Sri Saroj Kumar Singh was directed to assist Sri Bhattacharjee in day to day work.
Moreover the Exhibit W-5 shows that Saroj Kumar Singh was directed to handover the charge of both the stores
to Sri Bhattacharjee and assist him. The Exhibit W-8 shows that Saroj Kumar Singh, Hindi Typist/Store Keeper
had handed over the charge of Store of MRS, Dhansar to Amal Kr. Bhattacharjee on 11/10/2004.
20.
Now, after above discussed documents of the workman it is quite apparent that all the time Saroj
Kumar Singh has been mentioned as Hindi Typist in his designation and he has been directed to take charge
temporarily or to assist the Store Keeper but there is nothing to show that he has been given permanent Incharge
in the Cadre of Store Keeper.
Further the Exhibits W-9, W-11, W-12, W-13, W-14, W-15, W-16 and W-17 show that the
designation of concerned workman namely Saroj Kumar Singh has always been mentioned as Hindi Typist and
it has no where been mentioned as Store Keeper. Exhibit W-10 is an application to the Assistant Labour
Commissioner regarding his transfer from Store to other place. Moreover the Exhibit M-4 and M-6 are letters
addressed to Project Officer, Bera Colliery, in which the concerned workman Saroj Kumar Singh has mentioned
his designation as Hindi Typist. Further the Exhibit M-7 which is LPC in which also the designation of Saroj
Kumar Singh has been mentioned as Hindi Typist.
21.
It is relevant to mention here that the Exhibit M-8/M8-1 shows that there are different cadres of
General Clerical Cadre and Store Personnel Cadre. Further as per Exhibit M-8/1 there is a system for promotion
from Store Issue Clerk to Assistant Store Keeper and thereafter to Store Keeper and subsequently to Senior
Store Keeper.
Here in this case there is no claim of the union/applicant that the concerned workman got promotion in
the cadre of Store Personnel Cadre from the post of Store Issue Clerk.
22.
It will be not out of place to mention here that Exhibit W-7 is a letter dated 25/11/2004 addressed to
concerned workman, Sri Saroj Kumar Singh, Hindi Typist Gr. III by Dy. Chief Mining Engineer,MRS, Dhansar
cautioning him to be alert in future as one out of seven batteries was found damaged because of lack of
supervision.
23.
In view of above discussion, it is quite apparent that the concerned workman namely Saroj Kumar
Singh has no expertise knowledge of Store Keeping as submitted by the learned counsel. Moreover the
concerned workman had been in charge of Store Keeper, so he is not entitled for regularisation as Store
Keeper/Assistant Store Keeper.
24.
After considering all the facts and circumstances of the case the Tribunal comes to the conclusion that
the action of the management of Mines Rescue Station of M/s.BCCL,Dhansar in not regularizing the services of
Sri Saroj Kumar Singh as Store Keeper/Assistant Store Keeper is legal and justified.
25.
Hence, the concerned workman Sri Saroj Kumar Singh is not entitled for any relief.
This is the Award of this Tribunal.

AWARD
By Order No.L-20012/27/2017- (IR(CM-I)) dated 05.09.2017, the Central Government in the Ministry
of Labour has, in exercise of the powers conferred by clause (d) of sub-section (1) and sub–section (2A) of
Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, referred the following disputes for adjudication to this Tribunal:
SCHEDULE
“Whether non-providing of employment on compassionate ground to Shri Nayan Moni Gorai,
S/O Late Tapan Gorai by management of Basanti Mata Colliery of M/s. BCCL is justified? If not, what
relief he is entitled to?”
2. After receipt of the reference, both the parties were noticed. The Secretary, J.C.M. Union has filed his
written statement of claim on 11/10/2017 and the management of Basantimata Colliery of M/s. BCCL has filed
its written statement cum rejoinder on 31/05/2019.
The concerned workman namely Nayan Moni Gorai has filed rejoinder to the written statement of the
management on 20/06/2019.
3.
The claim of the sponsoring union as per its written statement is as follows:-
That Late Tapan Gorai was appointed as permanent workman on 30/04/1987, who died on 19/03/2014
in Central Hospital, Dhanbad and subsequently his dependent son namely Sri Nayan Moni Gorai had applied
2486 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
for dependent employment immediately after the death of his father Late Tapan Gorai before management of
BCCL as per NCWA but after two years the management vide letter dated 15/19-09-2016 had directed him to
rectify certain defects. Subsequently the dependent son of deceased workman submitted the reply to the
aforesaid letter by rectifying the alleged defects vide letter dated 26/09/2016. After that management forwarded
the details of the dependent son of deceased workman to Dy. Commissioner, Dhanbad for verification of
genuineness and subsequently the Dy. Commissioner, Dhanbad vide letter dated 15/10/2016 addressed to the
Project Officer, Basantimata Colliery confirmed the identity of the dependent son of the deceased workman but
unfortunately the management did not provide him employment. Thereafter the sponsoring union raised an
industrial dispute before A.L.C. (C), Dhanbad but on failure of Conciliation Proceeding this reference case
originated.
A prayer has been made for issuance of direction to the management for providing employment to Sri
Nayan Moni Gorai dependent son of deceased workman Late Tapan Gorai with retrospective effects with all
arrears as per NCWA.
4.
On the other hand the case of the management as per its written statement is as follows:-
That the deceased workman Late Tapan Gorai was not the son of Late Madan Gorai but he was the son
of Late Madan Mohan Mandal which had been accepted by the Late Tapan Gorai before the vigilance
department. The deceased workman had obtained his employment against the land of Late Madan Gorai posing
himself as son of Late Madan Gorai. After that Late Tapan Gorai was charge-sheeted by the management under
clause 26.1.11, 26.1.12 and 26.1.29 for committing theft, fraud, dishonesty with Companies Business or
property and giving false information regarding one’s particulars for the purpose of employment. The
concerned workman Late Tapan Gorai had participated with the co-worker to defend his case and full
opportunity was given to him to defend its case and at the end, charges levelled against Tapan Gorai was proved
beyond doubt but unfortunately before any order could be passed he died. The deceased workman Tapan Gorai
had obtained employment by fraud posing himself as son of Late Madan Gorai against Land Looser Scheme,
but actually Tapan Gorai was son-in-law of late Madan Gorai and son of Late Madan Mohan Mandal which had
been proved in the enquiry, so the question of giving compassionate appointment to his son namely Shri Nayan
Moni Gorai does not arise at all. The management has not committed any illegal or arbitrary act by refusing
employment to Sri Nayan Moni Gorai, son of deceased workman Late Tapan Gorai who had obtained
employment by practising fraud.
A prayer has been made to pass an Award in favour of the management.
The management by way of rejoinder has mentioned that save and except which are matter of record,
the management denies all other and singular allegations as averred in the written statement of the workman.
5.
The sponsoring union has submitted rejoinder to the written statement of management stating therein
that the statement made in Para 3, 4 and 5 of the written statement of management are false and denied, the
statement made in Para 6 of the written statement of management, it is submitted that the management is legally
bound to provide dependent employment as per settlement and the statement made in Para 7 of written
statement of management it is reiterated that the dependent employment in Coal India Ltd. is matter of right and
the same cannot be denied.

BCCL. He has produced the appointment letter of his father which is marked as Exhibit W-1. He has further

in-law which was investigated by police and the police had submitted the report that Tapan Gorai was resident
of Khokhra Pahadi, P.S.- Nirsa, Dist-Dhanbad and there was nothing against him. He has also stated that they
have raised this matter before the ALC and it was found that Tapan Gorai was not son of Madan Gorai but he
was his son-of-law, so after death of Tapan Gorai his son Nayan Moni Gorai is not entitled for employment.
In the cross-examination he has stated that he was appointed in Basantimata Colliery in June 2013 and
he could not say how Madan Gorai had submitted his application showing the land in his name and now he got

cancelled. He has further stated that Tapan Gorai was appointed against the vacant post of temporary miner
loader. He has further deposed that management had not produced any documents before the Tribunal to show
that Tapan Gorai was appointed under Land Looser Scheme. He has also deposed that the copy of enquiry
proceeding and the statement of Tapan Gorai before vigilance have not been produced before the Tribunal. He

10.
The learned lawyer of the concerned workman has submitted that that Late Tapan Gorai father of Sri
Nayan Moni Gorai died on 19/03/2014 while he was in service of the Company. He has also argued that Late
Tapan Gorai was not appointed under Land Looser Scheme rather he was appointed against vacant post. He has
also submitted that no charge-sheet was issued for appointment under Land Looser Scheme and the Enquiry
Officer was appointed to conduct enquiry. He has also submitted that WW-1, Nayan Moni Gorai has fully
supported his case whereas the MW-1, Nandkishor Singh has admitted that Tapan Gorai was appointed against
vacancy as temporary miner loader. He has also submitted that the MW-1 had admitted that no paper
concerning appointment of Tapan Gorai under Land Looser Scheme has been filed before the Tribunal. He has
also argued that dependent son of Late Tapan Gorai is entitled for employment with full way wages and cost.
11.
On the other hand the learned lawyer of management has submitted that Late Tapan Gorai father of the
claimant was an employee of BCCL under Land Looser Scheme of the Company. He has also submitted that
some land was acquired by BCCL belonging to Madan Gorai of Palasia Village, P.O. –Mugma, P.S. Nirsa, Dist.
Dhanbad and Tapan Gorai (Father of the claimant)by adopting fraud measures obtained employment in BCCL
establishing himself as son of Madan Gorai of Village Palasia whereas Tapan Gorai was actually the son-in-law
of Madan Gorai of village Palasia and not son of Madan Gorai, so he has falsely established himself as son of
Madan Gorai and got employment. He has also submitted that Tapan Gorai is actually the son of Madan Mohan
mandal of village-Khokhra Pahadi, P.S. Nirsa, Dist.-Dhanbad and after receiving complaint regarding
genuineness of Tapan Gorai verification was conducted by the BCCL vide letter dated 21/29.3.2012 addressed
to District Commissioner, Dhanbad and after enquiry it had been reported that Tapan Gorai @Tapan Kumar
Mandal is the son of Madan Gorai @Madan Mandal of village-Khokra Pahadi, P.S.- Kalubathan (at present)
Dist.- Dhanbad. He has further argued that it has been fully established that Tapan Gorai @ Tapan Kumar
Mandal (now deceased) was the son of Madan Gorai @ Madan Mohan Mandal of village- Khokrapahadi and
not of village- Palasia. He has further argued that there was a complaint against Tapan Gorai regarding the
genuineness and Tapan Gorai had himself accepted before the Vigilance Department that he was the son-in-law
of Late Madan Gorai of Palasia against whose land he had got employment as son. He has further submitted that
the deceased workman namely Tapan Gorai was not the son of Madan gorai of Palasia against whose land, he
had obtained employment fraudulently, so his dependent son namely Nayan Moni Gorai is not entitled for
employment under the provision of NCWA.
12.
Now, the only point of determination in this case is whether the action of management of Basanti Mata
Colliery of M/s. BCCL the providing of employment to Shri Nayan Moni Gorai, S/O Late Tapan Gorai on
compassionate ground is justified? If not, what relief he is entitled to?
FINDINGS
13.
At the outset of discussion it is required to mention here that it is an admitted fact that the deceased
Late Tapan Gorai was a permanent employee of Basantimata Colliery of M/s. BCCL.
14.
Now, the question arises whether the Nayan Moni Gorai, dependent son of deceased workman namely
Late Tapan Gorai is entitled for compassionate appointment?
In this regard the WW-1, Nayan Moni Gorai has deposed that his father died on 19/03/2014 while he
was in service and thereafter he had submitted his application for his appointment on compassionate ground
which was sent to Police for verification (Exhibit W-2). He has also stated that he was not provided
employment by the management without assigning any reason.
On the other hand the MW-1, Nandkishor Singh has deposed that Late Tapan Gorai was given
employment by BCCL under Land Looser Scheme as a son of Madan Gorai but he was son-in-law of Madan
Gorai and in this regard a complaint had been filed before BCCL Vigilance which was sent to Police for
investigationand Police had submitted areport that Tapan Gorai was resident of Khokhra Pahadi, P.S.- Nirsa,
Dist- Dhanbad.
15.
It is relevant to mention here that the management has raised the issue that Late Tapan Gorai the
deceased workman had obtained the employment by practising fraud and mischief and in this regard proceeding
had been started against him.
16.
Now, coming to the documentary evidence of the workman it appears that Exhibit W-1 is an
appointment letter of Tapan Gorai as a temporary miner/loader dated 12/03/1988 and Exhibit W-2 is the photo
copy of Verification Roll of Nayan Moni Gorai.
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2489
The documentary evidence of management shows that the Exhibit M-1 is a letter dated 08/08/2015
addressed to RLC(C), Dhanbad, Exhibit M-2 is the photo copy of enquiry proceeding dated 27/09/2013, Exhibit
M-3 is the photo copy of appointment of Enquiry Officer, Exhibit M-4 is the photo copy of notice of enquiry,
Exhibit M-5 is a letter of Agent, Basantimata Colliery allowing Tapan Gorai to resume duties, Exhibit M-6 is a
charge-sheet with suspension dated 22/08/2013, Exhibit M-7 is a initiations of disciplinary proceeding against
Tapan Gorai dated 11/12.06.2013, Exhibit M-8 letter of Chief Manager to Project Officer, Basantimata Colliery
for disciplinary action against Tapan Gorai, Exhibit M-9 is appointment letter to the post of temporary
underground miner/loader in the Group V-A, Exhibit M-10 copy of voter list, Exhibit M-11 copy of letter dated
07/07/2012 regarding charactor and antecedent verification and Exhibit M-12 copy of verification of
genuineness of antecedents dated 21/29.03.2012.
17.
Now, after analysing the documentary evidence it is quite apparent that the Exhibit M-2 is a
proceeding of enquiry dated 27/09/2013 into the charge-sheet against Tapan Gorai but the same was adjourned
fixing the date on 16/10/2013, so it appears that the enquiry regarding his appointment had not been concluded.
Further the Exhibit M-6 shows that a charge-sheet was issued and Tapan Gorai was placed under suspension
vide order dated 22/08/2013 but the Exhibit M-5 shows that vide letter dated 12/13.09.2013 issued by Agent,
Basantimata Colliery he was allowed to resume his duties pending enquiry, Exhibit M-7 and M-8 are letters for
initiation of disciplinary action against Tapan Gorai and tracing of his employment file.
18.
Now, it is quite apparent that there are no documentary evidence of the management which show that
the deceased workman Late Tapan Gorai had obtained the employment by practicing fraud and wilful
falsification of record of the company.
19.
It is required to mention here that the management has not filed any documents to show that the
proceeding of enquiry had been concluded and the charges against the Late Tapan Gorai had been proved.
20.
It is relevant to mention here that charges against late Tapan Gorai had not been proved and he was not
dismissed from service, so at the time of death he was in the pay roll of the company of BCCL under
Basantimata Colliery.
21.
In view of above discussion the Tribunal finds that the Late Tapan Gorai was in service at the time of
his death at Basantimata Colliery, so his dependent son Nayan Moni Gorai is entitled for employment after his
death.
22.
I must mention here that if Sri Nayan Moni Gorai has crossed the limit of maximum age of
employment then the upper age limit is directed to be relaxed for his employment.
23.
After considering all the facts and circumstances of the case the Tribunal hold that non-providing of
employment on compassionate ground to Shri Nayan Moni Gorai, S/O Late Tapan Gorai by management of
Basanti Mata Colliery of M/s. BCCL is not justified and he is entitled for employment.
Hence, the management is directed to provide employment to Nayan Moni Gorai, dependent son of
Late Tapan Gorai within one month after publication of the Award in the Official Gazette.
This is the Award of this Tribunal.

This case coming up for final hearing on 05.10.21 and 20.12.2021 and this Industrial Tribunal-cum-
Labour Court on 02.05.2022 passed the following:
AWARD
1.
This is a petition filed U/s 2A(2) of the Industrial Disputes (Amendment) Act, 2010.
2.
The workman was appointed as a bank man in the Management Bank on 01.04.1997. Management
Bank has issued merit certificates on various occasions to the workman. He had unblemished service with the
Management Bank till 19.11.2012. On 19.11.2012, the workman was issued with an order of suspension on
some frivolous charges. An enquiry was conducted. The enquiry was an empty formality as the Enquiry Officer
failed to comply with the principles of natural justice. The workman participated in the enquiry, filed list of
witnesses and defence documents. The Management failed to examine any independent witness in the enquiry.
The workman had raised a specific plea with regard to ME-8 document that the signature in the cheque was not
of the workman and he requested that the same may be forwarded to Forensic Laboratory for verification of the
signature. The Enquiry Officer did not consider the prayer. Contrary to the evidence on record, the Enquiry
Officer submitted a report stating that the charges levelled against the workman are proved. The charges leveled
against the workman and the findings arrived at by the Enquiry Officer are entirely different. The Management
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2491
accepted the findings of the Enquiry Officer and terminated him from the service of the Management. The
appeal filed by the workman was also rejected by the Appellate Authority confirming the findings of the
Enquiry Officer and also punishment imposed by the Disciplinary Authority. At the time of the enquiry, the
Management issued orders to release Ex-gratia payment for the financial year ending 31.03.2013. The
Management failed to release the said Ex-gratia payment to the workman.
3.
The Management filed written statement denying the above allegations. The original claim of the
workman before the Conciliation Officer was for Ex-gratia payment. The demand for reinstatement was raised
subsequently which is clearly an afterthought. The workman was working as bankman at Edappally branch of
the Management Bank and was suspended from service w.e.f. 23.11.2012 on getting a report that he had
indulged in taking bribe or illegal gratification from customers, misappropriated excess money from a customer
for obtaining PAN card, misbehaved with a customer, indulged in lending and borrowing of money from
customers resulting in complaints before Police and other authorities and incurred excessive debts resulting in
customer complaints. One of the allegation against the workman was that he arranged a loan to one Sri.Sabu
C.P. whose proposal was declined by the Bank earlier. The workman made Smt.Suba Sabu wife of Sri.Sabu to
mortgage her property as security for another loan sanctioned by the Branch to Sri.Paul Moolan in the name of
M/s.Moolan Electricals & Sanitaries on 19.09.2005. As advised by the workman, Smt.Suba Sabu mortgaged the
property for ODCC limit of Rs.5.00 lakhs to Mr.Paul Moolan. As per the understanding, Sri.Paul Moolan
handed over Rs.1,50,000/- to Sri.Sabu by way of cash cheque. For arranging this transaction, the workman
accepted Rs.10,000/- from Sri.Sabu and Rs.25,000/- from Sri.Paul Moolan. The amount of Rs.25,000/- was
received by the workman by way of cash cheque issued by Sri.Paul Moolan in the name of one Sri.Roy on
20.09.2005. The cheque was written by the workman and he had signed on the reverse of the cheque
acknowledging the receipt of cash. Though Sri.Sabu repaid the amount to Sri.Paul Moolan by remitting
Rs.1,80,000/- into his SB account on 25.07.2008 and transferring the same to the loan account in the name of
M/s.Moolan Electricals & Sanitaries, Sri.Paul Moolan failed to remit the remaining loan amount and hence the
property mortgaged by wife of Sri.Sabu was implicated in the case filed by the Bank. Sri.Sabu remitted another
amount of Rs.1,15,000/- to the loan account of Sri.Paul Moolan to get back the property from the Bank. The
matter was settled by a compromise on 03.11.2012 and during the period of negotiation, the workman further
demand of Rs.20,000/- from Sri.Sabu. It was further alleged that the workman accepted Rs.300/- from one
Sri.Selvam Raj for obtaining PAN card from the Bank though the charges for taking PAN card was Rs.94/-
only. Thus the workman had taken excess money and misappropriated the balance amount. The workman
borrowed Rs.30,000/- from one Smt.Nagaratinam and has not repaid. She filed a complaint with the Branch
Manager. Smt.Nagaratinam complained before Police and also before Kerala State Legal Services Authority.
She also complained that the workman had tried to falsely incriminate her husband in a criminal case alleging
atrocities against women. Workman also made Sri.Mathew N. J. proprietor of M/s. Nereveetil Auto Spares, a
customer of the Bank, to pay Rs.5 lakhs to one Sri.Antony introduced by the workman. The workman assured to
pay back the amount in case of nonpayment of Sri.Antony. The workman gave a signed blank cheque for
security. However neither Sri.Antony nor the workman have repaid the amount. Sri.Boby T. Pappachan working
as Bankman in the Management Bank complained that as requested by the workman he had lent Rs.10,000/- to
Sri.Navas, a friend of the workman and that the workman had given a cheque signed by Sri.Navas as security to
Sri.Boby. When Sri.Navas failed to repay the amount, he enquired the matter with Sri.Navas. Sri.Navas told
him that he has already returned the money to the workman. The workman also owed money to customers of the
Branch such as Sri.Sivarajan and Sri.Joshy C.C. and had misbehaved with another customer Sri.Sebastian
D’Silva. The Disciplinary Authority issued a charge sheet dt.19.11.2012 to the workman alleging gross
misconduct of “doing any act prejudicial to the interest of the Bank, giving or taking bribe or illegal gratification
from a customer or an employee of the Bank, misbehavior towards customers arising out of Banks’ business and
also minor misconduct of incurring debts to an extent considered by the management as excessive” under the
Bipartite Settlement. The Disciplinary Authority simultaneously ordered a domestic enquiry to enquire into the
charges levelled against the workman. The domestic enquiry against the workman on the basis of the charge
sheet dt.19.11.2012 was conducted strictly in accordance with the principles of natural justice and the workman
was defended in the enquiry by an Advocate of his choice. The Management produced valid documents and
examined witnesses to substantiate the charges. 3 witness were examined and 22 documents were marked from
Management side. All Management witnesses were cross examined by the defence representative. The workman
adduced both oral and documentary evidence. 6 witnesses were examined and 8 documents were marked on the
side of the workman. The workman was given all the opportunity to defend his case and prove his innocence.
After analyzing the evidence, oral and documentary, the Enquiry Officer returned a finding that the charges
against the workman were proved. A copy of the findings of the Enquiry Officer dt.22.05.2013 was forwarded
to the workman for his comments. The workman did not offer any comments to the enquiry findings. The
Disciplinary Authority after considering the evidence, facts and circumstances, concurred with the findings of
the Enquiry Officer, issued an order proposing punishment of dismissal without notice vide Memorandum
dt.23.07.2013. The workman was also given a personal hearing with regard to the nature of proposed
punishment on 05.08.2013. The workman availed the opportunity and submitted a letter dt.05.08.2013 to the
2492 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
Disciplinary Authority. After considering all the documents and the submission by the workman, the
Disciplinary Authority imposed the punishment of dismissal without notice on the workman vide order
dt.27.09.2013. The appeal submitted by the workman before the Appellate Authority was also rejected vide
order dt.30.12.2013. The workman filed W.P.(C)no.18254/2013 seeking a direction to release Ex-gratia
amount declared by the Bank for the financial year 2012-13. The workman later withdrew the petition with a
liberty to pursue the matter before the appropriate forum. As per Management Bank Circular
no.HRAdmn/S/3220/2013 dt.30.04.2013 employees who were under suspension will get Ex-gratia amount only
on getting clearance from HR Administration. Further Ex-gratia is not liable to be paid to persons who ceased to
be in the service of the Bank on account of dismissal /termination during the financial year or thereafter. Hence
the Ex-gratia amount to the workman was withheld by the HRA Administration. The workman was dismissed
from service vide order dt.27.09.2013 and the period of his suspension from 23.11.2012 till the final order was
not treated as period spend on duty. Hence he was not eligible for Ex-gratia for financial year ended 31.03.2013.
The domestic enquiry conducted against the workman was impartial and was strictly in accordance with the
rules and following the principles of natural justice. The Management also pleaded that if the domestic enquiry
against the workman is held to be vitiated in any manner, the Management may be allowed to adduce fresh
evidence to substantiate the charges levelled against the workman.
4.
The workman filed a rejoinder denying the allegations in the written statement and reiterating the
pleadings in the claim statement.
5.
On completion of pleadings by the parties, the Enquiry Officer in the disciplinary proceedings was
examined as MW1 and the enquiry file is marked as M1.
6.
The issues to be decided in this industrial dispute are;
1.
Whether the enquiry is conducted in a fair and proper manner following the principles of natural
justice?
2.
Whether the finding of the Enquiry Officer and the Disciplinary Authority are based on legal
evidence ?
3.
Whether the punishment awarded to the workman is proportionate to the charges proved against
him?
4.
Relief and cost?
7.
Issue No. 1
On the request of the Counsels on either side, the issue regarding the fairness of enquiry was heard
as a preliminary issue. After examining the Exbt.M1 enquiry file and the proceedings conducted by the
Enquiry Officer, this Tribunal vide its order dt.14.02.2020 found that the enquiry is conducted in a fair and
proper manner.
Hence the issue is decided in favour of the Management and against the workman.
8.
Issue No. 2
The charges levelled against the workman are
1.
that he has accepted illegal gratification from Sri.Sabu C.P. and Sri.Paul Moolan.
2.
The workman accepted Rs.300/- from one Sri.Selvamraj for obtaining a Pan Card through his
relative Sri.Babu.
3.
Allegation made by Smt.Nagaratinam that the workman had taken a loan of Rs.30,000/- and was
not returned.
4.
Sri.Mathew N. J. Proprietor of M/s.Nereveettil Auto spares who is having Bank account with
the Branch had lent Rs.5,00,000/- to one Sri.Antony introduced by the workman as a security of
blank cheque given by the workman to Sri.Mathew N. J.
5.
The complaint of Sri.Sivarajan that the workman failed to pay the cause for truss work done in
the house of the workman.
6.
The workman had not paid the full amount of cement purchased by him from the shop of
Sri.Joshy C. C. and an amount of Rs.2000/- is outstanding.
7.
The complaint of Sri.Sebastian D’Silva one of the customer of the Bank, the workman insulted
and used impolite language against him when the customer visited the Branch on 13.08.2011.
8.
The Management appointed an Enquiry Officer and a Presenting Officer. The workman was
allowed to engage an Advocate as his defence assistant. The Enquiry Officer after conducting a
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2493
detailed enquiry found that all the charges except the charge regarding acceptance of Rs.300/-
from Sri.Selvam for obtaining PAN card is proved. The Disciplinary Authority after
examining the report and also the supporting evidence accepted the finding of the Enquiry
Officer and awarded the punishment of dismissal without notice for charges, doing any act
prejudicial to the interest of the Bank and giving or taking bribe or illegal gratification from a
customer or an employee of the Bank. The Disciplinary Authority also awarded a penalty of
reduction of basic pay by two stages with cumulative effect for the charge of misbehavior
towards the customer arising out of Bank’s business. Further he was also awarded a punishment
of “censure” for the charge of incurring debts to an extend considered by the Management as
excess vide its order dt.23.07.2013. The Appellate Authority concurred with the finding of the
Disciplinary Authority and rejected the appeal vide order dt.27.09.2013.
9.
According to the learned Counsel for the workman, the finding of the Enquiry Officer is
perverse and is not based on evidence adduced in the enquiry. He elaborately took this
Tribunal through the evidence adduced by the Management as well as the workman in the
disciplinary enquiry and argued that the finding by the Enquiry Officer cannot be sustained on
the basis of the evidence available in the enquiry file. The learned Counsel for the Management
on the other side argued that the charges levelled against the workman are of very serious
nature and the evidence available on record amply supports the charges and therefore the
finding of the Enquiry Officer and Disciplinary Authority are sustainable on the basis of the
evidence available in the enquiry file.
10.
As rightly pointed out by the learned Counsel for the Management, the charges levelled against
the workman are of very serious nature. The Management basically relied on the evidence of
the investigation officer MW1, the Branch Manager MW2, and one Sri.Bobby T. Pappachan,
bankman of Edappally MW3. Further the documentary evidence in Exbt.ME series, Exbt.M4,
Exbt.ME12b, Exbt.ME15, Exbt.ME20 are relied on by the learned Counsel for the
Management to argue that there is categorical evidence to show that the charges against the
workman are proved. On the other side the workman relied on the evidence of Sri.Roy K. X.,
DW1, Sri.Sabu C. P., DW2, Sri. Nawas T. A, DW3, Sri.Sivarajan V. K., DW4, Sri.Joshy C. C.,
DW5, Sri.Selvam V. G., DW6 and also their statements given before the Enquiry Officer. It is
to be pointed out that the defence witnesses are the complainants on the basis of whose
complaint the charges against the workman were built up by the Management. It is a settled
legal position that this Tribunal is not mandated to look into the evidence in detail. However it
is required to examine whether the evidence produced by the Management in the enquiry would
prove the charges leveled against the workman and whether the finding of the Enquiry Officer is
perverse.
9.
The whole investigation against the workman started with a telephonic complaint alleged to have been
received by the Vigilance Department from one Sri.Vinod, Mandalam President of Congress party that the
workman is involved in financial dealings with some customers and is engaged in activities which might cause
loss of reputation to the Bank. The identity of the complainant is not known to anybody including MW1 who
investigated the complaint. The source of the complaint becomes relevant because it is stated in evidence that
the workman contested in a local election as an independent and lost the election.
10.
Exbt.ME3 series is a statement given by the workman to the investigating team, directly or indirectly
admitting the charges levelled against him. The workman later retracted the statement stating that it is taken
under coercion and on an assurance that no further action will be taken in this matter. This is a crucial
document relied on by the Enquiry Officer and Disciplinary Authority to arrive at their findings.
11.
The learned Counsel for the workman pointed out that all the charges are held to be proved on the
basis of the evidence of the Investigating Officer, the Branch Manager and a bankman who is also an employee
of the Bank. He also pointed out that there are only two complaints and other evidence are on the basis of the
report prepared by the Investigating Officer and the oral evidence given by the Branch Manager. According to
the learned Counsel, none of the complainants other than the bankman was examined in the enquiry. With
regard to the first charge, the case against the workman is that he accepted a bribe of Rs.10,000/- from
Sri.Sabu and Rs.25,000/- from one Sri.Paul Moolan for sanctioning a loan. It is also alleged that the workman
demanded a further bribe of Rs.25000/- from Sri.Sabu. Exbt.ME8 in the enquiry file is a cheque issued by
Sri.Paul Moolan to one Mr.Roy. Sri.Roy was examined as DW1, as a defence witness in the enquiry. DW1
admitted his signature on the reverse side of ME8 and he also admitted the same in Exbt.DE1 statement.
According to the learned Counsel for the Management, the signature on the reverse side of ME8 is that of the
workman and he accepted the same as a bribe for getting a loan. In his oral evidence before the Enquiry
Officer, Sri.Roy, DW1 categorically admitted that the signature on the reverse side of Exbt.ME8 is that of his.
MW1 also in his evidence stated that the signature on the reverse side of ME8 is not of that of the workman
2494 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
but he claimed that it is could put by the workman. He also stated that if the Bank records are examined, it can
be seen as who withdrew the money, but the same is not done. Hence it can be seen that the finding of the
Enquiry Officer that the amount of Rs.25000/- as per ME8 is withdrawn by the workman, given as bribe to
him by Sri.Paul Moolan for arranging a loan of Rs.5,00,000/- from the Management Bank is not correct.
Hence it is clear that the charge that he accepted a bribe of Rs.25,000/- from Sri.Paul Moolan for arranging a
loan of Rs.5,00,000/- is not proved in the enquiry and to that extend the finding of the Enquiry Officer is
perverse.
12.
The next charge is with regard to the allegation that the workman had accepted Rs.300/- from one
Sri.Selvam Raj for obtaining Pan Card. Even according to the Enquiry Officer, the said charge is not proved in
the enquiry.
13.
With regard to the next charge that the workman borrowed Rs.30,000/- from one Smt.Nagaratinam
and failed to return the money, it is to be seen that the evidence on record would clearly establish the fact that
the money is borrowed by one Sri.Navas. The only other document is Exbt.ME12(b), a complaint filed by
Smt.Nagaratinam before the Branch Manager alleging that the workman had taken Rs.30,000/- from her.
However Exbt.13(b), a petition filed by Smt.Nagaratinam before the Kerala State Legal Services, would
disclose the fact that the loan was taken by Sri.Navas and the name of the accused in the complaint was also
Sri. Navas. Further the workman also produced exbt.DE3(a), a copy of the Criminal M.C. no.1996/2011 filed
by Sri. A. Navas before the Hon’ble Sessions Court, Ernakulam and also the order dt.24.11.2011 passed by
the Hon’ble Sessions Court. These documents would substantially establish the fact that Smt.Nagaratinam
had filed the complaint against Sri.A. Navas and he applied for anticipatory bail in that case. Another
document produced by the workman in the enquiry is Exbt.DE4 which is a blank stamp paper in which Sri.A.
Navas is the one signatory and one Sri.N. N. Appu has signed as a witness. It has come in evidence that Sri.N.
N. Appu is none other than the workman and his signature tallies with his signature in other documents. The
Enquiry Officer for some reason disbelieved all the defence evidence and held that the charge that the
workman took an amount of Rs.30,000/- as loan from Smt.Nagaratinam is proved. It is relevant to point out
that Sri.Navas was examined in the enquiry as DW3 and a statement given by him was marked as DE4.
Though the Management elaborately cross examined Sri.Navas, the Management failed to extract anything
from Sri.Navas to prove that Rs.30,000/- was taken by the workman and not Sri.Navas. Hence the finding by
the Enquiry Officer with regard to this charge is also not supported by proper evidence or the evidence
available on record were not properly considered by the Enquiry Officer before arriving at his findings.
14.
The next charge is that, Sri.Mathew N. J. Proprietor of M/s.Nereveettil Auto Spares lend
Rs.5,00,000/- to one Sri.Antony introduced by the workman and on his assurance that he will pay back the
amount in case of nonpayment by Sri.Antony. The workman also gave a signed blank cheque to Sri.Mathew
as security. There is absolutely no evidence other than the statement of MW1, the Investigating Officer and
Exbt.ME1 the report filed by him before the Management to support the charge. The defence side produced
some documents to show that it was only a transaction between SrI.Mathew N. J. and Sri.Antony and since
Sri.Antony or Mathew N. J. were not examined, those documents were not accepted by the Enquiry Officer.
However in Exbt.ME3, the workman admitted that he had given a blank cheque in the name of himself and his
sister as security to the transaction.
15.
The next charge against the workman is that one Sri.Bobby T. Pappachan, bankman, Edappally Branch
complained that as requested by the workman, he had lend Rs.10,000/- to Sri.Navas and the workman had
given a cheque issued by Sri.Navas on the same day as security. The Management examined MW3 Sri.Bobby
T. Pappachan to substantiate this charge. MW3 in his deposition stated that the workman requested him to
lend Rs.10,000/- to Sri.Navas and Sri.Navas gave a cheque to him through the workman. Neither the workman
nor Sri.Navas returned the money. The evidence available on record is the statement given by Sri.Bobby T.
Pappachan, ME15 and true copy of the cheque no.122152 of the Bank dt.30.10.2010 for Rs.10,000/- issued by
Sri.Navas to Sri.Bobby T. Pappachan. Sri. Navas was examined as defiance witness and he categorically
stated that he knew Sri.Bobby T. Pappachan and on his request an amount of Rs.10,000/- was given by
Sri.Bobby T. Pappachan and he gave his cheque as a security. In the written statement given by him, it is
also stated that the matter is already settled. There is nothing on record other than the Exbt.ME3 statement
given by the workman showing the involvement of the workman in the transaction. The other charges are that
Sri.Sivarajan, a customer of the Bank has executed the truss work in the house of the workman and he failed to
pay the balance amount of Rs.4000/- and that the workman purchased cement from one Sri.Joshy C. C and
failed to pay an amount of Rs.2000/- to him. The defence examined Sri.Sivarajan as DW4 and Sri.Joshy as
DW5, both of them confirmed that they received money and they don’t have any complaint against the
workman. They filed their written statement also to that effect in the enquiry.
16.
Another charge against the workman is that he misbehaved with one Sri.Sebastian D’Silva, a customer
of the Bank and insulted him using impolite language. According to the workman, this is a matter which was
closed two years back and the customer has withdrawn his complaint on the same day. It has also come out in
evidence that the complaint was withdrawn.
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2495
17.
The nature of evidence in the enquiry to a certain extend is discussed above, only to point out that
the finding of the Enquiry Officer and Disciplinary Authority has not taken into account the complete
evidence and particularly the evidence on the defence side. To that extend the finding by the Enquiry Officer
is perverse since such a finding is not possible in the normal circumstances by an ordinary person.
Hence it is concluded on the basis of the above discussion that the findings of the Enquiry Officer and
Disciplinary Authority are not based on the complete evidence available on record and to that extend the
findings are perverse.
18.
Issue No. 3 & 4
The learned Counsel for the workman argued that the punishment of dismissal without notice
imposed on the workman is too harsh and disproportionate to the charges alleged against him. The learned
Counsel for the Management on the other side pointed out that an official who is dealing with public money is
supposed to act with honesty and integrity. The learned Counsel relied on exbt.ME21, Memorandum of
Instructions wherein the Management Bank has issued detailed instructions regarding public conduct, lending
and borrowing etc., by employees of the Management Bank. According to him even if the charges of direct
involvement of the workman in the financial transactions is not established, his involvement in all these charges
are very well proved. As per ME21, instructions on lending and borrowing, an employee of the Bank shall not
cause oneself or any member of family to be monitorily liable to an entity having dealings with the Bank or
other employees of the Bank. Further as per Bank’s instructions published on 04.10.2006, ME22, the
employees of the Bank shall not in their individual capacity borrow or permit any member of their family to
borrow from customers or people who have dealings with the Bank and also that such borrowings will be
considered as an act prejudicial to the interest of the Bank. Observance of discipline in personal financial
dealings by employees at all levels, is an essential pre requisite for protecting reputation and credibility of the
Bank before its stockholders and public. The learned Counsel for the Management also relied on the decision
of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in Standard Chartered Bank Vs R. C. Srivstava, Civil Appeal
no.6092/2021 and held that the jurisdiction of the Tribunals U/s 11A of the Act, 1947 although is a wide one
but it must be judicially exercised. The Hon'ble Supreme Court also held “ Judicial discretion, it is trite,
cannot be exercised either whimsically or capriciously. It may scrutinize or analyze the evidence but what is
important is how it does so”. In this case as already discussed, the findings by the Enquiry Officer and the
Disciplinary Authority is perverse to the extent that the evidence on record produced by the workman was
not properly onsidered by the Enquiry Officer. This is a case where the workman succeeded in producing
majority of the complainants or those persons who gave statement before the Investigating Officer as defence
witnesses and they gave written statement as well as oral evidence in the enquiry. Though the Management
elaborately cross examined those defence witnesses, the Management failed to discredit the evidence of those
witnesses. Further as already pointed out, the Management basically relied on the evidence of MW1 and
MW2 and also the ME1 report of MW1 and ME3 statement given by the workman to the Investigating Officer
ignoring the relevant evidences adduced by the workman.
19.
Having said that, the involvement of the workman in all incidents involved in the charge sheet is
apparent from the available evidence. Though there is no evidence that the workman has taken the bribe, the
involvement of the workman in the loan arrangement of Sri.Sabu C. P. and Sri.Paul Moolan is very much
evident in the records available in the enquiry file. Similarly in the charge involving the complaint of
Smt.Nagaratinam, though the allegation that the workman has borrowed Rs.30,000/- from Nagaratinam is not
established, his involvement in the transaction is very much evident. Though Sri.Sivarajan, Sri.Raghu and
Sri.Sebastian D’silva gave statements withdrawing the complaints, the fact remains that some amount was
outstanding to Sri.Sivarajan and Sri.Raghu and there was an incident of misbehaviour with the customer
Sri.Sebastian D’ Silva. The learned Counsel for the Management relying on Exbt.ME21 Memorandum of
Instructions dt.01.04.2011 with regard to “public conduct and lending and borrowing by employees” argued
that the Bank lost confidence in the workman. In Regional Manager, UPSRTC Vs Hotilal and another, 2003
SCC 605 the Hon'ble Supreme Court held that “ If the charged employee holds a position of trust where the
honesty and integrity are inbuilt requirement of functioning, it would not be proper to deal with the matter
leniently. Misconduct in such cases has to be dealt with iron hand. Where the person deals with public money
or is engaged in financial transactions or acts in a fiduciary capacity, highest degree of integrity and trust
worthiness is a must and unexceptional “.
20.
In this case it is found that the finding of the Enquiry Officer and the Disciplinary Authority are not
in accordance with the evidence available and therefore perverse. However it is not possible to state the
there is no evidence at all. Though the direct involvement of the workman is not established in the enquiry
there is evidence to show the indirect involvement of the workman in all the charges leveled against him
particularly in view of the Exbt.ME3 statement given by the workman before the Investigating Officer, MW1.
2496 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
21.
Taking into account all the evidence and circumstances discussed above, I am of the considered view
that the punishment of dismissal from service awarded to the workman is not proportionate to the charges
alleged and proved against the workman. However the learned Counsel for the Management has pointed out
that the Management Bank lost confidence in the workman because of his involvement in the charges
established against him. Taking into account all the circumstances, I am of the considered view that the
punishment of “dismissal from service without notice” can be modified as “removal from service with
superannuation benefits ie., Pension and/or Provident Fund and Gratuity as may be due otherwise under the
rules or regulations prevailing at the relevant time and without disqualification from future employment”.
22.
Hence an award is passed modifying the penalty awarded to the workman by the Management to that
of removal from service with superannuation benefits ie., Pension and/or Provident Fund and Gratuity as may
be due otherwise under the rules and regulations prevailing at the relevant time and without disqualification
from future employment.
The award will come into force one month after its publication in the official Gazette.
Dictated to the Personal Assistant, transcribed and passed by me on this the 2nd day of May, 2022.

AWARD
The Government of India in Ministry of Labour & Employment has referred the present dispute
existing between employer i.e. the management of Local Head Office, State Bank of India, and its
workman/claimant herein, under clause (d) of sub section (1)and sub section (2A) of section 10 of the
Industrial Dispute Act 1947 vide letter No. L-12012/69/2011 (IR(B-I) dated 12/10/2011 to this tribunal for
adjudication to the following effect.
“Whether the action of the management of State Bank of India, Zonal Office, Dehradun in imposing
the penalty of dismissal from service without notice on Shri Raj Kumar, Assistant, State Bank of India,
Dharotari Branch, vide their order dated 23/11/2004 is legal and justified? To what relief the workman
is entitled to?”
This order deals with the proportionality of punishment imposed on the claimat pursuant to a domestic
inquiry which he describes as illegal and unreasonably disproportionate to the charge leveled against him.
It is necessary to set out the relevant facts as per the claim statement in detail. The claimant was
appointed as a clerk cum cashier in the State Bank of India. In 1992. In the year 1993 he was posted in the
Branch of the Bank at dhantauri in the district of Uttarkashi (U.K). On an allegation of misappropriation by him
from the accounts of the customers causing wrongful loss to the Bank a departmental proceeding was initiated
and on the allegations charge was framed. Simultaneously FIR was also lodged and the Police investigation
ensured. Whereas the police submitted charge sheet and the claimant was sent up for a criminal trial, the
departmental proceeding went ahead with the inquiry. The claimant participated in the inquiry held in the year
2002 and the inquiry officer submitted his report holding the charge proved against the claimant. After perusing
the said inquiry report the disciplinary authority served show cause notice as to why the inquiry report shall not
be accepted and ultimately accepted the finding of the inquiry officer and in the year 2004 passed the order of
dismissal against the claimant. Being aggrieved the industrial dispute was raised by him before the Labour
2498 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
Commissioner. The conciliation since failed reference was made by the appropriate government to this tribunal
for adjudication on the legality of the order of dismissal from service.
The claimant and the management filed their pleadings rebutting each other stand. On the basis of the
said pleadings the following issues were framed for adjudication and it was directed that issue No.1 shall be
treated as preliminary issue to decide the fairness of the inquiry.
ISSUES
1.
Whether the inquiry conducted by the Bank was just fair and proper.
2.
Whether delay of 6 years in filing the claim frustrates the grievance of the claimant.
3.
Whether the punishment of dismissal from service without notice commensurate the misconduct
of the claimant.
4.
As in terms of reference.
During hearing of the preliminary issue the management as well as the claimant were called upon to
adduce their evidence. On behalf of the claimant it was raised that proper opportunity for defence was not given
to him nor the witnesses were called by the management to testify and thereby giving an opportunity to the
claimant for cross examination. The other main objection taken by the claimant was that the alleged misconduct
took place in the year 1993 and the charge was served on him 8 years thereafter on 01.02.2001. The inquiry
officer in a hasty manner concluded the inquiry and submitted his report on 30.03.2002. The copy of the inquiry
report was never supplied to him as contemplated under the bipartite settlement. Though, there was an allegation
of manipulation of records, the originals were never placed during the inquiry giving opportunity to the claimant
for verification. The then Branch Manager whose signature was allegedly forged and who was initially a
delinquent alongwith the claimant was not called to testify during the domestic inquiry. The claimant had also
alleged that the disciplinary authority took an arbitrary decision of dismissing him from service without serving
a notice to showcause.
On behalf of the management it was argued that the inquiry was conducted in a fair manner and in
accordance with the Principles of Natural Justice. Opportunity was given to the workman to defend himself.
Since the allegation was based upon facts on record and since, the claimant when confronted with relevant
documents of the Bank, admitted his signature there on, the management committed no illegality for not
examining the witnesses. It was also argued by the management that the conduct of the claimant led to loss of
confidence by the management and thus, the punishment was appropriately imposed.
Having heard the argument and considering the evidence adduced this tribunal by order dated
27.08.2019 came to hold that the domestic inquiry conducted against the workman was not proper for violation
of the Principles of Natural Justice and the said inquiry stands vitiated. Thereby the tribunal ordered the
management to lead evidence and prove the charge against the workman. Thus, the management examined one
Davendra Kumar the Chief Manager HR as MW1 and no additional document was filed. Similarly the claimant
examined himself as WW1 and no additional document was placed on record by the claimant.
During course of argument the Ld. A/R for the management pointed out on the merits of the domestic
inquiry conducted and drawing attention to different documents exhibited during the inquiry argued that the
domestic inquiry itself proves the charge. The charge against the claimant being of serious nature no order of
reinstatement should be passed. Relying on the judgment of the Hon’ble High court of Delhi in the case of R K
Singhla vs. PNB 2002 (1994) FLR 1053 he argued that the termination of the criminal case in acquittal is no
way helpful to the delinquent employee as the scope of departmental proceeding and criminal proceeding being
different the tribunal cannot conclude in favour of the workman merely because he has been acquitted from the
criminal trial. Reliance has also been placed by the management in case of Depot Manager Andhra Pradesh
State Road Transport Corporation vs. Mohd. Yousuf Miya AIR 1997SC 2232, wherein it has been held that
approach and objective in the criminal proceeding and disciplinary proceeding is altogether distinct and
different. In the disciplinary proceeding the question is whether the respondent is guilty of such conduct as
would merit his removal from service or a lesser punishment as the case may be whereas in the criminal
proceeding the question is whether the offence registered are established and if established what sentence should
be imposed on him.
The Ld. A/R for the claimant on the other hand argued on the legislative intention behind in
corporation of section 11A of the Act and submitted that in Number of judgment the Hon’ble Supreme Court
have held that even if the issue relating to the fairness of the inquiry is decided in favour of the employer, even
then the tribunal has to consider if the punishment commensurates the charge. He also argued that the provisions
of section 11A of the Act empower the Industrial Tribunal to interfere with the quantum of punishment in
appropriate cases. Here is a case where the fairness of the inquiry considered as Issue No.1 has been answered
against the management and thus, it is incumbent upon the management to adduce evidence and prove the
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2499
charge against the claimant. In the case of Oriental Textile Finishing Mills vs. Labour Court (1971)3SCC
646 it has been held that:-
if inquiry is not held or is defective, the employer can nonetheless support his order of discharge by
producing evidence before the industrial tribunal.
Thus, when the departmental inquiry fails due to some omission or deficiency the employer can
support the order of dismissal by producing satisfactory evidence and proving the misconduct. Furthermore, in
the case of Divyash Pandit vs. NCCBM, (2007)15SCC787 the Hon’ble Supreme Court have held:
Once the labour court came to the finding that the inquiry was nonest, it should have give opportunity
to the employer to establish the charge.
In this case by order dated 27.08.2019 it has already been held by this tribunal that the domestic inquiry
against the workman was not conducted properly and not in accordance to the Rule, standing order and by
following the Principles of Natural Justice and thus, stands vitiated. In view of the same it is necessary to
examine if the management has succeeded in proving the charge and the claimant successfully rebutted the
same.
The management has examined one of its HR Managers as MW2 who except repeating the statement
given earlier during the Preliminary Issue hearing has added nothing more. In his sworn testimony he has only
stated about the evidence and the documents produced during the inquiry and trustworthiness of the same. He
has not produced any additional document. During cross examination to a question put by the claimant about the
current status of the inquiring officer he expressed his ignorance. No explanation has been offered by the
management as to why the inquiry officer was not examined who prove the charge. On the other hand the
claimant testified again as WW1 and stated that the Branch Manager Nilendu Das who as a co-accused in the
criminal case was not issued charge sheet for the departmental proceeding and was given promotion in the
meantime. The management has not produced the inquiry officer to prove the charge and the documents on the
basis of which he was proceeded have not been placed on record. He also added that the criminal case ended in
his favour and he has been acquitted from the charge.
When this tribunal has already come to a finding that the inquiry conducted stands vitiated, it was open
for the management to supplement the evidence and prove the charge. The opportunity so granted has not been
availed by the management. The Ld. A/R for the claimant argued that when the charge is not proved and the
claimant has disputed the alleged misconduct the tribunal gets the jurisdiction to interfere in the finding of the
management and decide the dispute on the merits on the basis of the evidence led before it. Reliance has been
placed in the case of Orrisa Cement Limited vs. Adikan Sahu (1960)LLJ 518 decided by the Hon’ble
Supreme Court to submit that the only remedy available to the claimant is his reinstatement.
On hearing the argument and on perusal of the evidence adduced by both the parties and in view of the
order on preliminary issue already passed, it is found that the management has miserably failed to prove the
charge against the claimant and for the earlier finding given in respect of issue No.1 it is held that the finding of
the disciplinary authority against the claimant and the consequential order of dismissal passed against him are
illegal and disproportionate.
The alleged misconduct as found from the evidence had taken place in the year 2001 and the claimant
was dismissed from service by order dated 23.11.2004. The claimant when sworn his affidavit in the year 2020
has declared his age as 62 years. Hence, the claimant who has already attained the age of superannuation cannot
be ordered for reinstatement. Hence, the proper recourse is to direct the management to treat him as if on duty
from the date when he was placed under suspension and till the date of superannuation. For the period from the
date of suspension and the dismissal of service he shall be entitled to subsistence allowance as permissible under
the Rule of the Bank and from the date of dismissal and till the date of superannuation he shall be paid 50% of
the salary as during this period the claimant has not discharged any duty. During this period the other service
benefits available to the claimant including annual increment shall be allowed to him. Hence, ordered.
ORDER
The reference be and the same is answered in favour of the claimant and it is held that the order of
dismissal dated 23.11.2004 is illegal and unjustified. The claimant is held entitled to the following. The
management is directed to treat him as if on duty from the date when he was placed under suspension and till the
date of superannuation. For the period from the date of suspension and the dismissal of service he shall be
entitled to subsistence allowance as permissible under the Rule of the Bank and from the date of dismissal and
till the date of superannuation he shall be paid 50% of the salary he is entitled to as during this period the
claimant has not discharged any duty. During this period, the other service benefits available to the claimant
including annual increment shall be allowed to him. The management is further directed to settle the dues of the
claimant as indicated above within 3 months from the date of publication of the award without interest failing
which the amount shall carry interest @9% per annum from the date of accrual and till the payment is made.

The reference is received on 27/11/2001 by this Tribunal in which the Secretary RCMS, had been
advised to submit statement of claim along with relevant document within fifteen days but the union/workman
did not appear before the Tribunal. However after receipt of the reference, both parties were noticed. But
neither Union/workman nor the management appeared before the Tribunal Thereafter notice of the Union
/workman returned unserved. Now the case is pending since 27.11.2001 and workman/Union is did not
appearing before the Tribunal , so it is felt that workman/union has lost its interest in this matter, Hence “ No
Claim “ Award is passed communicate.

This case coming up for final hearing on 13.04.2021 and 17.12.2021 and this Industrial Tribunal-
cum-Labour Court on 29.04.2022 passed the following:
AWARD
1.
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 (Act 14 of 1947) the Government of India, Ministry of Labour by its order
No. L-12011/25/2014-IR(B-I) dated 13.05.2014 referred the following dispute for adjudication by this
Tribunal.
2.
The dispute referred is;
“1. Whether the issue raised by Federal Bank Employees Union in the matter of alleged illegal
deduction from pensionary benefits payable to Shri.T. Shanmughavelu even after his superannuation
constitute as an industrial dispute within the meaning of Sec 2(k) of ID Act, 1947 ?
2. If so, whether the action of the Management in recovering a sum of Rs.98,503/- from the pensionary
benefits of Sri. T. Shanmughavelu is justified ?”
3.
The union filed claim statement for and on behalf of Sri.Shanmughavelu a member of the Union. The
workman retired on 28.02.2009 at the age of superannuation. The workman was dismissed from the service
of the Bank and was reinstated consequent to an award passed by the CGIT-LC, Chennai in I.D.no.749/2001.
At the time of dismissal, some staff loans availed by the workman was outstanding and the Management
unilaterally appropriated the Gratuity and Provident Fund payable to him, towards the outstanding loan and
the balance amount was credited to the workman. The workman was reinstated as per the order of CGIT-cum-
2508 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
Labour Court, Chennai. While reinstating him, the Management demanded the payment of a sum of
Rs.3,70,665/- towards terminal benefits disbursed and appropriated by the Management while dismissing him
from service. The Management adjusted an amount of Rs.1,75,583/- from the gratuity amount towards closing
of staff loan account. The workman could not pay the amount as he was out of employment for 4 years. The
Management reckoned his service only from the date of reinstatement for the purpose of computation of his
terminal benefits. On superannuation, the workman was eligible for maximum gratuity of Rs.3,50,000/- but
only Rs.37,462/- was paid after adjusting an amount of Rs.1,36,955/- towards interest on gratuity amount
appropriated towards staff loan account. The workman moved the Controlling Authority under Payment of
Gratuity Act. The application was allowed by the Controlling Authority vide its order dt.31.01.2011. During
the pendency of the proceedings before the Controlling Authority a further amount Rs.48,700/- was paid by the
Management. The Controlling Authority by its order directed the Management to pay a further sum of
Rs.35,296/-. Aggrieved by the order of the Controlling Authority, the workman approached the Appellate
Authority under Payment of Gratuity Act. The Appellate Authority vide order dt.26.12.2011 allowed the
gratuity claim of the workman in full. The interest for the delayed period was also granted by the Appellate
Authority. While disposing of the appeal, the Appellate Authority held that adjusting and charging interest on
gratuity claimed to have been made does not arise. In the meantime the workman retired from the Management
and the claim for pensionary benefit was pending. The workman repaid the Management share of provident
fund contribution disbursed and appropriated by the Management Bank towards the staff loan. When the
pension was disbursed by the Management, they deducted a sum of Rs.98,503/- from the arrears of pension and
commuted value of pension due to the workman. This amount is claimed to be deducted towards the interest
payable on the gratuity amount of Rs.1,75,583/- adjusted towards the loan account of the workman,
consequent to the dismissal in 2000 to the date of his retirement. The Management has no right to claim
interest on gratuity concluded by an interparty order passed by the Appellate Authority under Payment of
Gratuity Act. Before the Conciliation Officer the claim of the Management was that as per Clause 49, Chapter
9 of the Pension Rules of the Management, the Bank dues can be recovered from the pensionary benefits. The
Management Bank has not issued any notice to the workman showing that such an amount is due. A perusal
of Pension Rules, 1995 would clearly show that the present recovery made by the Management is beyond the
scope of recoveries under Clause 49 of the Pension Rules of the Management. The workman is coming under
the definition of workman U/s 2(s) of the ID Act and therefore the present industrial dispute is an industrial
dispute coming U/s 2(k) of the ID Act. Pension Rules, 1995 formulated by the Management Bank was in
terms of a settlement signed by the Indian Banks Association and the Unions. The pensionary benefits would
form part of the service conditions of the workman. Therefore the violation/non compliance of the Pension
Scheme can be a subject matter of an industrial dispute.
4.
The Management filed written statement denying the above allegations. The reference and
adjudication thereon are not maintainable and sustainable in law and on facts. The workman retired on
superannuation from the service of the Management Bank on 28.02.2009. Therefore he is not a workman as
defined U/s 2(s) of the ID Act. The recovery of Rs.98,503/- from the pension benefit of the workman under
rule 49 of the Federal Bank Employees Pension Rules, 1995 is not connected with the employment or non-
employment or the terms of employment or the conditions of the labour. Hence the above dispute is not an
industrial dispute U/s 2(k) of the ID Act. The workman was dismissed from the service of the Management
Bank and was reinstated as per the decision of the CGIT-cum-Labour Court, Chennai vide order dt.04.09.2003.
When reinstated in service dt.01.01.2004, the Management was compelled to initiate disciplinary proceedings
in 2007 against the workman. He was imposed with punishment of reduction of basic pay by one stage in the
scale of pay in the disciplinary proceedings. When the workman was dismissed from the service of the
Management Bank on 11.05.2000, the Management paid an amount of Rs.1,75,583/- towards gratuity and
Rs.1,95,082/- on account of provident fund. On his reinstatement on 01.01.2004, the Management directed the
workman to refund the amount received by him failing which his period of service for calculation of gratuity
and provident fund will be reckoned as 01.01.2004. The workman requested the Management to appropriate
the amount released to him from his terminal benefits. The workman retired from the service on 28.09.2009 on
attaining the age of superannuation. The total amount payable as per gratuity was Rs.3,50,000/-. Since the
Bank has already paid an amount of Rs.1,75,583/- on 28.06.2000, his gratuity was settled after adjusting the
amount repaid and the interest on gratuity thus paid. The workman took up the issue before the Controlling
Authority under Payment of Gratuity Act. The Appellate Authority passed an order allowing the appeal of the
workman holding that the interest on the amount paid towards gratuity in the year 2000 could not be recovered
from the gratuity. The Management Bank has right to claim interest for the amount already paid to the
workman towards gratuity amount. It was on the basis of the request of the workman that the amount paid
towards gratuity in 2000 was permitted to be adjusted against the amount of gratuity that will become payable
at the time of his retirement in 2009. Therefore the workman had enjoyed the fruits of this amount from
01.01.2004 to 28.02.2009. Going by the yield of gratuity from 01.01.2004-28.02.2009 an amount of interest
of Rs.98,503/- was calculated. Since the workman failed to pay the money the same was adjusted from his
pension benefits. The workman filed an appeal for exercising second option for pension in terms of industry
wise settlement dt.27.04.2010. By virtue of exercising the 2nd option for pension, he has become a pensioner
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2509
as defined under Federal Bank Employees Pension Rule. Clause 49, Chapter IX of the Pension Rules, 1995
authorized the Bank to recover the dues to the Bank from the computed value of pension or pension or family
pension. The above provision authorized the Bank to recover the interest amount from the proceeds of
pensionary benefits under the head ‘other recoveries’ of the Pension Rules.
5.
Union filed a rejoinder denying the claim of the Management in the written statement and reiterating
its stand in the claim petition. The workman even after his retirement is a workman U/s 2(s) of the ID Act
since the dispute is pertaining to his employment, non employment or conditions for service and as recovery
from pension was consequent to a claim made by the Management Bank while the workman was in their
service.
6.
After completion of the pleadings the documents produced by either of the parties are marked by
consent. The documents filed by the Union are marked as Exbts.W1 and W2. The documents produced by the
Management are marked as Exbts.M1 to M26.
7.
The following issues are framed for final decision
1.
Whether the issue raised by the Union regarding the illegal recovery from the pensionary
benefits payable to Sri. T. Shanmughavelu even after his superannuation constituted an
industrial dispute within the meaning of Sec 2(k) of the Industrial Disputes Act ?
2.
Whether the action of the Management in recovery of an amount of Rs.98,503/- from the
pensionary benefits of Sri. T. Shanmughavelu is justified ?
8.
Issue No. 1
As per order of reference, one of the issues referred for adjudication is whether the claim of illegal deduction
from pensionary benefits of the workman after superannuation constituted an industrial dispute within the
meaning of Sec 2(k) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The learned Counsel for the Management also
wanted the issue to be decided as a preliminary issue.
9.
There is no serious dispute regarding the facts of the case. According to the learned Counsel for the
Management, the workman retired from the service of the Bank on superannuation on 28.02.2009 and
therefore he is not a workman as defined in U/s 2(s) of the ID Act. Further he also argued that the recovery
of an amount of Rs.98,503/-from the pensionary benefit of the workman under Rule 49 of the Federal Bank
Employees Pension Rules, 1995 is not connected with the employment or non employment or the terms of
employment or the conditions of labour of the workman. According to him the dispute is not an industrial
dispute U/s 2(k) of the ID Act. The learned Counsel for the Union submitted that the Union is competent to
raise a dispute on behalf of the member in connection with his employment or non employment and conditions
of service while he was serving the Management Bank. The workman will come within the definition of Sec
2(s) of the Industrial Disputes Act, even though he retired from the service of the Management Bank at the time
of raising the dispute, since the dispute is pertaining to his employment, non employment or conditions of
service as recovery from the pension was consequent to the claim made by the Management while the
workman in their service. According to the learned Counsel the present dispute comes U/s 2(k) of the ID Act.
As per Sec 2(k);
Industrial dispute means any dispute or any difference between employers and employees or between
employer and workman or between workmen and workmen which is connected with the employment or non-
employment or the terms of employment or the conditions of labour, of any person.
As per Sec 2(s)
“Workman means any person (including an apprentice) employed in any industry to do any manual,
unskilled, skilled, technical, operational, clerical or supervisory work for hire or reward, whether the
terms of employment be express or implied and for the purposes of any proceeding under this Act in
relation to an industrial dispute, includes any such person who has been dismissed, discharged or
retrenched in connection with, or as a consequence of, that dispute, or whose dismissal, discharge or
retrenchment has led to that dispute, but does not include any such person –
(i)
….
(ii)
…
(iii)
…
(iv)
…”
The definition of workman in Sec 2(s) falls in 3 parts. The 1st part of definition given the statutory
meaning of workman. The second part is designed to include something more in what the term primarily
2510 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
denotes. The 3rd part specifically excludes the categories of persons specified in clause 1-4 of the subsection.
The learned Counsel for the Union relied on the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in
Workmen of Dimakuchi Tea Estate Vs The Management of Dimakuchi Tea, AIR 1958 SC 353 to argue
that any person appearing in the definition of industrial dispute U/s 2(k) will also cover a workman retired on
superannuation. It is not clear how the above decision will support the claim of the learned Counsel for the
Union. In the above judgment the Hon'ble Supreme Court considered the implication of the words ‘of any
person’ appearing in the definition of industrial dispute U/s 2(k) of the ID Act. The Hon'ble Supreme Court
after elaborately discussing the earlier decisions on the issue held that
Para 33. To summarise. Having regarding to the scheme and objects of the Act, and its other
provisions, the expression ‘any person’ in Sec 2(k) of the Act must be read subject to such limitations
and qualifications as arise from the context; the two crucial limitations are (1) the dispute must be a
real dispute between the parties to the dispute (as indicated in the first two parts of the definition
clause) so as to be capable of settlement or adjudication by one party to the dispute giving necessary
relief to the other, and (2) the person regarding whom the dispute is raised must be one in whose
employment, non-employment, terms of employment, or conditions of labour (as the case may be) the
parties to the dispute have a direct or substantial interest. In the absence of such interest the dispute
cannot be said to be a real dispute between the parties. Where the workman raise a dispute as against
their employer, the person regarding whose employment, non-employment, terms of employment or
conditions of labour the dispute is raised, need not be, strictly speaking, a ‘workman’ within the
meaning of the Act but must be one in whose employment, non-employment, terms of employment or
conditions of labour the workman as a class have a direct or substantial interest”.
In William Goodacre and sons India Ltd Vs M. Goivndan and another, O.P. no.878/1978 the
Hon'ble High Court of Kerala considered whether a claim petition U/s 33C(2) can be filed for pensionary
benefits by a retired employee. The Hon'ble High Court held that the right to receive pension is a contingent
right which comes into full vigour as a vested right only upon retirement. It is a right which is enforceable
upon the termination of the contract of service. Disputes concerning pension by their very nature generally
arise subsequent to the expiry of the period of contract. A claim for pension is based on and arises from a right
which was contingent until the employee retired from service. But a dispute arises upon a breach of that right
after it becomes vested upon the employee’s retirement. The learned Counsel for the Management relied on
the decision of the Hon'ble High Court of Kerala in Purandaran Vs Hindustan Lever Ltd, 2001 2 LLJ 52.
The facts of the case involve forceful termination of employment by the Management and therefore it was
held that the claimant will come within the definition of the workman. The Hon'ble High Court held that in
order that a person can be a workman under the deeming provision, he has to be one dismissed, discharged or
retrenched. Dismissal, discharge and retrenchment are all voluntary acts on the part of the Management,
whereas the case of resignation or voluntary retirement is an act of violation on the part of the workman. The
absence of the terms ‘resignation’ and ‘retirement’ in the aforesaid definition, according to me, is very
conspicuous. When a person claim the status of a ‘workman’ under the deeming provision, he has to establish
that he comes within the four corners of the definition provided under the statute. The learned Counsel for the
Management also relied in Standard Chartered Grindlays Bank Vs UOI, 2007 2 LLJ 887.
The Hon'ble High Court of Calcutta considered whether the retired employees of the Bank would answer the
definition of workman U/s 2(s) of the Act. In the above case, on the basis of the settlement entered into on
20.11.1997, between the Bank and Union of employees, the pension of all retired employees was enhanced on
adhoc basis. A further settlement is entered on 10.03.1999 whereby the quantum of pension is again raised
w.e.f. 01.04.1999. When the Association of retired employees raised a claim with regard to the revision of
pension, the same was objected to by the Management. After examining the definition of the Industrial
Disputes Act U/s 2(k) and workman U/s 2(s) the Hon'ble High Court held that
“ It appears from the above provisions that a retired employee cannot be included in the definition of
workman for the purpose of Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. Further, coming back to the provision of
Sub Sec k of Sec 2 of the ID Act, 1947, in my opinion, the industrial dispute means and includes any
dispute or difference between the employees and workmen. As such the workmen are entitled to be
parties of a Bipartite Settlement in between the employers and workmen under the ID Act, 1947 and
it is also open to them to take up an issue of any person including the retired workmen. Because the
payment of pension has a direct bearing on substantial interest of the workman who will enjoy such
pension after retirement but no retired workmen can be party to any dispute or difference with their
erstwhile employers. ….”.
The learned Counsel for the Union pointed out that the present dispute regarding recovery of interest
from the terminal benefits of the workman is on the basis of a settlement and the Pension Rules, 1995
formulated by the Management Bank was in terms of a settlement signed by the Indian Bank Association and
the Unions representing the workmen in the banking industry. Thus the pensionary benefits would form part
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : नवम् बर 12, 2022/कार्तिक 21, 1944
2511
of the service conditions of the workmen and therefore the violation of the provisions of the Pension Scheme
can be a subject matter of industrial dispute.
10.
As already pointed out the various decisions of High Courts and Supreme Court has taken a
consistent view that retired persons will not come within the definition of workman as per Sec 2(s) of the Act
and therefore a claim with regard to pensionary benefits cannot come under the purview of Sec 2(k) of the ID
Act.
Hence the preliminary issue as per the order of reference is decided against the Union and in favour of the
Management.
11.
Issue No. 2
It is already found that a retired employee will not come within the definition of workman U/s 2(s) of the ID
Act, and as such an ID U/s 2(k) is not maintainable. In such circumstances this Tribunal has no jurisdiction to
entertain the dispute involved in this reference. Hence Sri.T. Shanmughavelu is not entitled to the relief
claimed as per the claim statement. The issue is answered accordingly.
12.
Hence an award is passed holding that this Tribunal has no jurisdiction to adjudicate the matter for
the reason that the workman involved is not a workman U/s 2(s) of the Act and therefore the industrial dispute
will not come within the definition of Sec 2(k) of the ID Act, 1947. Sri.T. Shanmugavelu is therefore not
entitled for the relief claimed in the industrial dispute.
The award will come into force one month after its publication in the official Gazette.
Dictated to the Personal Assistant, transcribed and passed by me on this the 29th day of April, 2022.

AWARD
(Passed on 16-6-2022)
As per letter dated 22/24-11-1999 by the Government of India, Ministry of Labour, New Delhi, the
reference is received. The reference is made to this Tribunal under Section -10 of I.D.Act, 1947 as per
Notification No.12012/299/99/IR(B-1). The dispute under reference relates to:
“Whether the action of the management of Bilaspur-Raipur Kshetriaya Gramin Bank, Bilaspur in
engaging Shri Ram Swaroop Jaiswal for a decade from 1989 to 1999 although intermittently and
thereafter dis-engaging him is just and legal. If not, whether the demand of the disputant for
reinstatement with full back-wages at par with regular employee is just?” .”
1.
After registering the case on the basis of reference, notices were sent to the parties. Both the parties
have filed their respective statement of claim/defense
2.
The case of the workman as stated in his statement of claim is that the workman was first appointed
with the Management on 1-2-1989 as a Messenger who was posted in the Sethganga Branch of the
Management Bank. He continued in service till 6-3-1999. He has worked for 240 days and more in every year
till the year preceding the date of his termination in continuous engagement of the Management. His services
were terminated by an oral order of the management on 7-3-1999 without giving him any notice or
compensation, hence his termination is against Section 25G and 25F of the Industrial Disputes Act,1947, herein
after referred to as the word Act) and Rule 76 of the Industrial Dispute(Central) Rules,1957. Accordingly he
has stated that setting aside his termination, he be reinstated with all back Wages and benefits.
3.
The case of Management is mainly that the Ministry of Finance , Union of India vide its circular No.F-
2/27/80 RRB dated 28-5-1981 has prohibited Rural Banks from appointing any regular Messenger/Sweeper etc.
The Banks were permitted to engage part time workers on daily basis in case of any urgency and they were
required to be paid in accordance with the hours they worked. There is a procedure for appointment and
promotion of officers and other employees in Rural Banks mentioned in the Rules of 1998. The workman was
employed in the Branch as a daily wager on purely temporary basis for maximum four hours a day. He was
paid his wages on the basis of rates decided by the Collector. He never served continuously for 240 days in any
year. The Management has given a chart in page seven of the written statement of defense showing the number
of working days the workman worked in the year since 1989 to 6-3-1999. Hence, according to the Management
the dis-engagement of workman is not in violation of any provisions. Accordingly the Management has
requested that the reference be answered against the workman.
4.
Inspite of various opportunities given to the workman for producing evidence from his side to file his
affidavit but never turned up for cross-examination by Management. Hence closing his evidence, vide order
dated 9-9-2021, the management was given opportunity for evidence from its side. The management filed
affidavit of its witness Anand Kumar Dewangan as his Examination-in-Chief. The workman did not turn up for
cross-examination of this witness. Hence opportunity of the workman for cross-examination of this witness was
closed.
5.
The workman did not appear at the time of argument. He did not file any written any written argument.
I have gone through the record.
6.
The Reference is the issue for determination in the case in hand.
7.
The burden to prove his continuous engagement for 240 days in a year lies on the workman. He has
filed his affidavit as his Examination-in-Chief but never turned up for cross-examination, hence his affidavit
2514 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : NOVEMBER 12, 2022/KARTIKA 21, 1944
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
cannot be read in evidence, in his favour. On the other hand, there is affidavit of Management witness as his
Examination-in-Chief, specifically stating that the workman was a daily wage casual labour engaged on daily
basis and was engaged for few hours in a day and was paid according to the rates and wages fixed by the
Collector. The witness also stated that the workman never completed 240 days in engagement in any year from
1989 to 1999. This statement of Management witness is un-cross-examined, hence cannot be dis-believed.
8.
In these circumstances, holding that the workman could not prove his case, the reference deserves to be
answered against the workman, holding his dis-engagement legal and proper. The workman is further held
entitled to no relief.
9.
On the basis of the above discussion, following award is passed:-
A.
The action of the management of Bilaspur-Raipur Kshetriaya Gramin Bank, Bilaspur in
engaging Shri Ram Swaroop Jaiswal for a decade from 1989 to 1999 although
intermittently and thereafter dis-engaging him held to be just and proper.
B.
The workman is held entitled to no relief.
10.
Let the copies of the award be sent to the Government of India, Ministry of Labour & Employment as
per rules.
