The learned Judge of the ESI court, on appreciation of evidence available on the record, allowed the application filed by respondent no. 1 and directed him to appear before the medical Referee for examination and on the basis of the said certificate he be paid all the benefits for which he was found entitled. ( 3 ) THE only contention of the learned counsel for appellants is that the learned Court below has committed an error in directing respondent No. 1 to appear before the Medical referee for his examination and on the basis of the examination certificate so issued, he was directed to pay the benefits for which he was found entitled. The learned counsel contended that under Sections 54 and 54-A of the E. S. I. Act, for determination of question of disablement, the employee is required to be referred to the Medical Board on the reference of the Medical Officer of the ESI hospital. As such, the respondent No. 1 should have been directed to appear before the Medical Board for his examination and certificate of disability or fitness as the case may be. ( 4 ) HAVING heard the learned counsel for parties and in view of the provisions of Sections 54 and 54-A of the Act, the contention of the learned counsel for appellants deserve to be accepted and the impugned order of the ESI court stands modified only to the extent that the respondent No. 1 -applicant shall appear before the Medical Board for his examination for obtaining the certificate of fitness or disability as the case may be. ( 5 ) CONSEQUENTLY, this appeal is allowed only to the extent of the modification in the order impugned as indicated above and the rest of the order under appeal stands affirmed. No orders as to costs. .
