Municipal Council,
Jind & Ors. Vs. Virender Pal [2008] INSC 1169 (17 July 2008)
Judgment
CIVIL APPELLATE
JURISDICTION CIVIL APPEAL NO.207 OF 2007 MUNICIPAL COUNCIL, JIND & ORS.
.....APPELLANT(S) VERSUS O R D E R Heard learned counsel for the parties.
Since the notice was
issued to show cause why the direction for payment of full back wages be not
set aside or modified, learned counsel for the respondent draws our attention
to the award passed by the Labour Court and submits that the appellant is liable
to pay a sum of Rs.2,40,322/-. Considering the facts and circumstances of the
case, we feel that instead of awarding entire 100% back wages as aforesaid,
this appeal shall be disposed of by directing the appellant to pay a sum of
Rs.1,20,000/- which shall be paid within six months from the date of
communication of this order. With this modification, the appeal is disposed of.
There shall be no order as to costs.
