The Presiding Officer & another. -----Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ADARSH KUMAR GOEL HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ALOK SINGH Present:- Mr. Dinesh Arora, Advocate for the appellant. ----- ORDER: 1. This appeal has been preferred against order of learned Single Judge, dismissing the writ petition of the appellant against award of the Labour Court upholding termination proceedings. 2. The appellant was appointed for 89 days as Peon in Municipal Committee without following any statutory procedure. His services were terminated after about nine months. He raised an industrial dispute alleging violation of Section 25-F of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (for short, “the Act”). The Labour Court held that the workman was not proved to have worked for more than 240 days and thus, there was no violation of Section LPA No.1187 of 2009 25-F of the Act. Learned Single Judge upheld the said finding. However, compensation of Rs.15,000/- was ordered to be paid to the appellant. 3. We have heard learned counsel for the appellant. 4. In view of concurrent finding that the workman has not worked for 240 days, we do not find any ground to interfere with the view taken by learned Single Judge. 5. The appeal is dismissed.
