HON’BLE MS JUSTICE G.ROHINI W.P. No.11813 of 1999 Dt.11-03-2010 APSRTC rep.by its Managing Director, Mushirabad, Hyderabad and another … Petitioner Vs. 1. S.Rachappa and another … Respondents O R D E R: The Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation has filed this writ petition assailing the order dated 15.7.1998 passed by the Labour Court-II, A.P., Hyderabad in M.P.No.12 of 1997 directing to pay Rs.18,885.95 ps to the 1s t respondent herein within two months. The said petition was filed by the 1st respondent herein under Section 33-C (2) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (for short ‘the Act’) claiming a sum of Rs.35,943.05ps. towards wages, DA, HRA and ex-gratia for the period from 18.7.1983 to 16.7.1986. After conducting due enquiry, the Labour Court, by order dated 15.7.1998 while holding that the 1st respondent was not entitled to ex-gratia, awarded a sum of Rs.18,885-95 ps. Out of the said amount since as a sum of Rs.11,012.50ps. was already paid by the Corporation, the remaining amount was directed to be paid within two months. Aggrieved by the same, the present writ petition is filed by the Corporation. I have heard the learned counsel for both the parties and perused the material available on record. It is clear from the material available on record that the first respondent herein, who was working as a Driver in the Corporation, was removed from service on 18.7.1983. Aggrieved by the same, he preferred an appeal before the Divisional Manager, Medak. The said appeal was allowed on 25.6.1984 setting aside the entire enquiry proceedings and directing fresh enquiry. Pursuant thereto though the 1st respondent reported to duty on 17.7.1984, he was not taken into service and even the wages and other monetary benefits to which he was entitled to for the period from 18.7.1983 were not paid. Hence the 1st respondent herein filed M.P.No.238 of 1986 which was renumbered as M.P.No.12 of 1997 under Section 33 -C (2) of the Act. The order of the appellate authority dated 25.06.1984, which was marked Ex.W.2, shows that the order of removal dated 18.7.1983 was set aside. Consequently, the 1st respondent shall be deemed to have continued in service and as rightly held by the Tribunal below, he is entitled to the salaries, HRA and other benefits from 18.7.1983 onwards till the fresh order of removal was passed under Ex.W.3 on 26.06.1986. In the circumstances, the impugned order dated 15.7.1998, which is in accordance with law, needs no interference by this Court. The Writ Petition is accordingly dismissed. No costs. _______________ G.ROHINI, J 11th March, 2010. PNV
