S. D. PANDIT, J. ( 1 ) THIS SCA is on the board for final hearing since 16. 6. 1996. Though intimations are sent to the learned advocate for the petitioners and though the matter was being adjourned every day from 15. 6. 1996 till today learned advocate for the petitioners as well as the petitioners have not turned out. Learned advocates for the respondents are present. The petitioners have already obtained stay against the implementation of the award and said stay is in operation for nearby ten months. I therefore, proceed to consider this petition finally on merits. ( 2 ) RESPONDENT No. 2 S. U. Solanki had raised an industrial dispute and on account of his raising the said industrial dispute, a reference was made to the Labour Court at Nadiad. Hearing Ref. (LCN) No. 262 of 1984. Said reference was decided by the Labour Court at Nadiad on 282. 1991. As the said award passed by the Labour Court in the said Reference was not executed and implemented by the present petitioners, respondent No. 2 took up proceedings under Sec. 29 read with Sec. 17-A of the ID. Act before the appropriate authority i. e. respondent No. 1. In the said proceedings under Sec. 29 of the I. D. Act, a notice was issued to the present petitioners and hence present petitioners have come before this court by this petition and the petitioners seek quashing of the said proceedings under Secs. 29 and 17-A of the ID. Act and to set aside the notice issued against them in the said proceedings. ( 3 ) IT is contended by the petitioners that the said proceedings under Sec. 29 is barred by the provisions of Sec. 468, Crpc in view of the fact that the award is dated 28. 2. 1991 and therefore, the same deserves to be quashed and set aside. ( 4 ) WHEN this petition came up before this Court for admission and getting interim stay of the said proceedings, my learned predecessor passed an order dated 27. 8. 1997 granting interim stay ex-parte on condition that the orders in reference (LCN) No. 262/84 should be implemented by issuing orders covering reliefs of reinstatement, continuity of service and back wages from the date of termination till the date of award dated 28. 2. 1991. 8. 1997 granting interim stay ex-parte on condition that the orders in reference (LCN) No. 262/84 should be implemented by issuing orders covering reliefs of reinstatement, continuity of service and back wages from the date of termination till the date of award dated 28. 2. 1991. Learned advocate for the respondent No. 2 states that there is compliance of the said condition partly. He says that there is reinstatement of respondent No. 2 vide order dated 4. 9. 1997 and there is also payment of back wages till 20. 2. 1991. ( 5 ) IN the petition one of the contentions raised was that against the award in Ret". (LCN) No. 262/84 the petitioners had filed writ petition No. 1942/96 and because of the pendency of the said petition, the respondent No. 2 was not justified in taking the recourse to the provisions of the Sec. 27 read with Sec. 17-A of the I. D. Act. But it is very pertinent to note that it is not the claim of the petitioners that in the SCA No. 1942/96 the petitioners had obtained any stay order aginst the execution and implementation of the award passed by the Labour Court, Nadiad. Therefore merely because the petitioners had filed a writ petition would not create an embrago against the respondent No. 2 to take proceedings under Sec. 29 read with Sec. 17-A of the I. D. Act. ( 6 ) NOW apart from this, as the position stands today, SCA No. 1942 of 1996 has been dismissed on 13. 8. 1996. Therefore the statement made by the petitioners in their petition that said petition was pending when the matter came up for hearing on the first date is not correct. No doubt the petitioners have filed the petition on 12. 3. 1996. Therefore, on the date of the petition, said earlier petition bearing SCA No. 1942 of 1996 was pending. But as said SCA has been ultimately dismissed, the continuation of the proceedings under Sec. 29 read with Sec. 17-A could not be said to be improper or illegal. Not only that said SCA no. 1942 of 1996 is dismissed on 13. 8. 1996, but appeal preferred against the said order is also dismissed. The petitioners had filed LPA being LPA No. 302/97 before this Court, which is dismissed on 7. 5. 1997. Not only that said SCA no. 1942 of 1996 is dismissed on 13. 8. 1996, but appeal preferred against the said order is also dismissed. The petitioners had filed LPA being LPA No. 302/97 before this Court, which is dismissed on 7. 5. 1997. Therefore, it is quite obvious that the award passed by the labour Court has not become final. ( 7 ) THE main contention raised on behalf of the petitioners regarding maintainability of the proceedings under Sec. 29 read with Sec. 17-A of the I. D. Act is the question of limitation. According to the petitioner in view of the provisions of Sec. 468, Crpc the offence under Sec. 29 I. D. Act is punishable with imprisonment of 6 months and therefore, a complaint ought to have been lodged within one year from the date of publication of the award. But the offence under Sec. 29 I. D. Act could not be said to be complete and concluded, if there is no compliance of the award or there is breach of the award within a period of one year only. The non-compliance of the award and commission of the breach of the award is a continuous wrong. A person who commits the breach of the award commits a continuing wrong and he commits the offence every day till the date he complies with the terms of the award passed by the Labour Court. Therefore, it is not correct to hold that the action under Sec. 29 could not be taken beyond a period of one year from the date of publication of the award. Therefore, I am unable to accept the contention raised by the petitioner that the action taken by the respondent No. 2 as well as respondent No. 1 is barred by law of limitation. ( 8 ) THEREFORE, in view of the above discussion it is quite clear that the petition is not tenable in law and the same deserves to be rejected. As there is no compliance of the terms of the award i. e. payment of back wages, and other benefits to the workman as per the award, the proceedings pending before the respondent No. 1 will have to continue. Therefore, the stay order granted on 18. 11. 1997 will have to be vacated. Accordingly present petition is dismissed. Stay order issued by this Court on 18. 11. 1997 stands vacated forthwith. Therefore, the stay order granted on 18. 11. 1997 will have to be vacated. Accordingly present petition is dismissed. Stay order issued by this Court on 18. 11. 1997 stands vacated forthwith. Rule discharged. No order as to costs. .
