A perusal of the award shows that the order of termination of service of the workman-dated 30.08.1986 was wholly illegal and the respondents have been directed to be reinstated. Since the Labour Court has not awarded the backwages, therefore, the petitioner can have no grievance. It has already stated that the workmen has already been reinstated and as such I do not find any illegality in the award. The findings recorded by the Labour Court being finding of fact requires no interference under Article 226/227 of the Constitution of India. Writ petition therefore lacks merit and is dismissed. No order as to costs. (Rajesh Tandon, J.) 26.04.2006 Rathour
