1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JODHPUR SPL. APPL. WRIT No. 55 of 2000 THE CHURU CENTRAL COPERATIVE BANK LTD AN V/S RAM NARAIN SINGH AND ORS Mr. MC BHOOT, for the appellant / petitioner Mr. DK PARIHAR, for the respondent Date of Order : 7.7.2009 HON'BLE SHRI N P GUPTA,J. HON'BLE SHRI GOVIND MATHUR,J. ORDER ----- Heard learned counsel for the parties. The matter came up before this Court earlier on 12.5.2009, on that day it transpired that the matter may be sorted out amicably by payment of some reasonable compensation to the workman-respondent. Obviously both the parties were agreeable to this proposition that the matter may be brought to an end by paying reasonable compensation. However, the amount of compensation was not discussed on that day. Today Mr.Bhoot submitted that the appellant is prepared to pay six months' salary by way of compensation, to which Mr.Parihar did not agree, and submitted that at least Rs.1,00,000/- should be paid by way of compensation. In our view, considering the totality of circumstances of the case, including the nature of 2 allegations on the basis of which the employee was removed, the length of service rendered by the employee since initial appointment till removal, and with lack of continuity, long period of time, which has lapsed since removal till the date, nature of employment being in the bank, and the employee being Clerk-cum-Cashier, in our view, the request made by Mr.Parihar to pay compensation of Rs.1,00,000/- cannot be said to be unreasonable. Accordingly, with the consent of the parties, the appeal is decided in the manner that the impugned order, and the order of the authority under Shops and Commercial Establishments Act would stand satisfied if the appellant pays an all told amount of Rs.1,00,000/- to the respondent-workman within a period of one month. The amount should be deposited by way of demand draft in this Court with the Dy.Registrar (Judl.) within a period of one month under intimation to the learned counsel for the respondent, and thereupon the draft shall be personally handed over to the respondent workman instead of being handed over to the counsel. On payment of the said amount, the entire controversy shall stand closed. The appeal is accordingly disposed of. ( GOVIND MATHUR ),J. ( N P GUPTA ),J. /tarun/
