HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.18854 OF 2011 ORDER: The petitioner was appointed as a Conductor in the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation in 1986. Through order, dated 27-02-1990, passed by the Depot Manager, Jeedimetla, he was removed from service. The petitioner filed I.D.No.315 of 1993 before the Labour Court-III, Hyderabad. Through award, dated 09-06-1994, the Labour Court has set aside the order of removal and directed reinstatement of the petitioner with attendant benefits and continuity of service, but without back wages. The grievance of the petitioner is that though he is reinstated into service, his pay scale was not fixed giving the benefit of increments for the period during which he was out of service. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent. 3. The order of removal, passed against the petitioner, was set aside by the Labour Court. Except denying the back wages, all other reliefs were granted. That, naturally would entitle the petitioner, to be placed in the scale of pay, as though he continued to work. There cannot be any justification for the respondent in not extending the benefit, which was granted by the Labour Court. 4. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the respondent to re-fix the salary of the petitioner in accordance with law, within a period of six (6) weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J August 25, 2011. KTL
