The petitioner has come up with the present Writ Petition for a Mandamus, directing the respondents herein to implement the order of the Labour Court, Madurai in Labour Dispute No.197/2007, dated 05.08.2010 and also to sanction the benefits due to him including the promotion to which he is eligible, in the light of his representation dated 28.02.2011. 4. The case of the petitioner is that he has been working as Revenue Supervisor in the Office of the Assistant Engineer (Town South), Tamil Nadu Electricity Board, Karaikudi. Sivaganga District. While so, a punishment was imposed upon him withholding increment with cumulative effect for a period of three years and other punishments, by an order dated 13.07.2005. Aggrieved over the same, he preferred a dispute before the Labour Court, Madurai in I.D.No.197 of 2007. The same was allowed on 05.08.2010. Thus, the order of punishment that has been passed against him was set aside by the Labour Court. He is under verge of retirement. In view of the pendency of the proceedings, he was not given any promotion. Hence, he is entitled for all monetary benefits, which have been withheld. He made a representation to the respondents. However, the representation was not considered so far and hence, he has come up with the present Writ Petition. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 2 5. On notice, the learned Additional Government Pleader reports that challenging the order of Labour Court, Writ Petition has not been filed before this Court. Thus, the order of the Labour Court has become final. In such circumstances, the respondents have to comply with the order of the Labour Court. 6. Taking such view, I direct the respondents to implement the order of the Labour Court, Madurai in I.D.No.197 of 2007, dated 05.08.2010, conferring all benefits.
