IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA, CHANDIGARH CWP No. 10414 of 2009 Date of decision July 16 2009 Kehar Singh ....... Petitioner Versus . Presiding Officer, Industrial Tribunal-cum-Labour Court, Hisar and another .......Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE K. KANNAN Present:- Mr. P. S. Jammu, Advocate for the petitioner. **** 1. Whether reporters of local newspapers may be allowed to see the judgment ? 2. To be referred to the reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the digest? K. Kannan, J (oral). The writ petition challenges the award of the Labour Court, Hisar rejecting the reference and holding that the termination of the daily wager could not be held to be illegal. The Labour Court has actually considered the fact that the workman was a daily wager and that he had been admitted into employment for a specific period and for a specific purpose. On a consideration of the relevant fact, the Labour Court held that the termination is covered by the exceptions of Section 2 (oo) (bb) and it would not amount to retrenchment. The termination that is effected consequent on termination of the contract under which the daily wager was offered employment would not result for retrenchment to invite application of Section 25-F. Dismissal of the petition seeking for reinstatement under the circumstances is perfectly justified. There is no scope for interference and the writ petition is dismissed. (K.
