Dave, CJ) Being aggrieved by the order dated 21-8-2006 passed by the learned Single Judge in W.P.No. 17115 of 2006, this appeal has been ﬁled by the workman who was working as a Security Guard. As the workman did not attend to duty for six months, enquiry proceedings were initiated and ultimately the workman was removed from service by an order dated 16-2- 1995. Being aggrieved by the said order of removal, the appellant had approached the Industrial Tribunal. The Industrial Tribunal took a lenient view and reduced the punishment. The said award was still challenged by the appellant before this Court by ﬁling W.P.No. 17115 of 2006, which has been rejected and being aggrieved by the order of rejection, this appeal has been filed. We have heard the learned Advocate and have perused the award passed by the Industrial Tribunal and the order passed by the learned Single Judge. We are in agreement with the view expressed by the learned Single Judge whereby the view of the Industrial Tribunal has been conﬁrmed. In our opinion, no interference is required. The appeal is therefore, dismissed with no order as to costs. ______________________ ANIL R. DAVE, CJ _________________________ R. SUBHASH REDDY, J 4th September, 2008. GRR
