While hearing the case at motion stage, this Court was informed that the petitioner-workman has worked for more than 12 years before his services were terminated. This Court was of the opinion that the petitioner deserves to be given terminal benefits even if his services have been terminated on account of being surplus. During the course of arguments a consensus has been arrived at between the parties, according to which the petitioner would be entitled to a compensation of Rs.60,000/- as full and final settlement between the parties. In view of the consensus arrived at, we direct respondent Nos.5 & 6 to pay a compensation of Rs.60,000/- to the petitioner within a period of three months from today. Writ petition disposed of.
