DATED:- APRIL 13, 2011. P.C. 1. Heard Counsel for the parties. 2. This Court had disposed of Writ Petition No.6372/2007 in terms of order dated 26th November, 2007. The said order was passed by consent of parties. By virtue of the arrangement provided in the said order, the applicants were entitled to withdraw the amount of Rs.5,93,400 plus an amount of Rs.1,06,600/- deposited by the writ petitioner in this Court. As 2 2771.10 the proceedings were still pending before the Regional Labour Commissioner, this Court allowed the applicants to withdraw the amount on furnishing bank guarantee of a Nationalised Bank to the satisfaction of the Registry of this Court. It is not in dispute that the proceedings before the Regional Labour Commissioner have since been decided and have been answered in favour of the applicants before this Court. That decision has not been challenged and we are informed that it is allowed to attain finality. If it is so, the applicants have become entitled for the amount deposited by the writ petitioners in this Court without precondition of furnishing Bank Guarantee as in terms of the order passed by the lower authorities, the applicants have become entitled for the said amount towards back wages. 3. In the circumstances, this Application is allowed. The applicants are permitted to withdraw the amount deposited by the writ petitioner in this Court along with the accrued interest thereon unconditionally. Application is disposed of accordingly.
