RANJIT SINGH, J.(Oral) On 21.3.2011, this Court passed the following order: “The petitioner has a labour Court Award in his favour. Before the Award could be implemented through which reinstatement alongwith the backwages of the petitioner was directed, the Company was wound up. Reinstatement under these circumstances obviously would not be possible. The petitioner, however, still can claim backwages as allowed by the labour Court. Concededly, the decree in favour of the petitioner passed by the labour Court is to be treated as “unsecured creditors”. Counsel for the petitioner in this background submits that after discharging all liabilities, there are sufficient fund lying with the Liquidator and, accordingly, the claim of the petitioner can be satisfied. Let the counsel for the respondents have instructions in this regard.” Mr. Dahiya, Counsel for respondents No.1 and 2 today on proper instructions submits that the some amount is lying with the Liquidator and if appropriate direction is issued, the claim of the C.W.P. No.8236 of 2009 -2- petitioner can be considered in accordance with law. Let the Liquidator consider the claim of the petitioner for discharging the same, in accordance with law, by treating him as unsecured creditor. The petitioner would be at liberty to plead before the Liquidator that he is not to be treated as “unsecured creditor” and is duly entitled to his salary. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. 11.5.2011 ( RANJIT SINGH ) rajeev JUDGE
