IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.17719 of 2010 Jasbir Singh Vs. Presiding Officer, Labour Court, Ambala and others Present: Mr.Vineet Chaudhary, Advocate, for the petitioner. ***** RANJIT SINGH, J. The petitioner claims to have initially joined the respondent-department in the year 1996. Finding by the Labour Court is that the petitioner had abandoned the job and did not make any claim against any termination. Now the petitioner has sought reference of the dispute on the ground that he was employed in the year 2004 and has been illegally terminated. Finding by the Labour Court is that the petitioner was not an employee of the respondent- department, but in fact had been appointed by a contractor. Rather, in a demand notice served by the petitioner, he himself has conceded that the petitioner was employed and the Contractor has given him the work of putting the street lights off and on. Since the petitioner could not establish his employment with the respondent- department, the Labour Court declined the reference and rejected the same. No case for interference, therefore, is made out in the factual finding recorded by the Labour Court. Dismissed. September 30, 2010 ( RANJIT SINGH ) ramesh JUDGE
