Heard learned counsel for the parties.
In our view, this appeal is concluded by concurrent findings of fact of courts below. The
Labour Court and the High Court have come to a finding that respondent No.2 had completed
more than 240 days and, therefore, he could not be thrown out without following the provisions
under Section 6-N and 6-P of U.P.Industrial Disputes Act. We, therefore, do not find any ground
to interfere with the impugned order and the appeal is accordingly dismissed. There shall be no
order as to costs.
The appellant is directed to reinstate respondent No.2 within six weeks from the date of
communication of this order if not already done in the meantime.
We also make it clear that respondent No.2 shall not be entitled to any back wages.
