CIVIL APPEAL NO(S). 7340 OF 2009
RAJASTHAN STATE ROAD TRANSPORT CORP. Appellant(s)
VERSUS
DEVI SHANKAR & ORS. Respondent(s)
J U D G M E N T

1. Though the appellant-Corporation has raised a

question of law as to whether the employee should

take recourse to the remedy under the Industrial

Disputes Act, instead of going to the civil court,

having regard to the fact that the

respondent-employee had the advantage of three

decrees of the courts below and also taking note of

the further fact that he has been in service for

quite long and is apparently, on the verge of

retirement, we do not think it just and proper to

disturb his services now.

2. Therefore, leaving the question of law open, this

appeal is dismissed.

No costs.
