body2005
ORDER 1. Heard learned counsel for the appellant. 2. By the impugned order the High Court has upheld the award made by the Labour Court directing the reinstatement of the respondent workman with back wages. The Labour Court came to the conclusion that the appellant while issuing the notice of retrenchment as contemplated under Section 25-F of the Industrial Disputes Act neither gave one months notice nor in lieu of the notice gave one months salary which has been upheld by the High Court. Learned counsel for the appellant is not able to satisfy us how the impugned orders of the Labour Court as well as the High Court are contrary to the law. 3. In the said view of the matter we find no merit in this appeal. The appeal is dismissed accordingly.
