DAVE, THE CHIEF JUSTICE And HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT APPEAL NO : 656 of 2008 JUDGMENT : (Per Hon’ble Sri Anil R.Dave, CJ) Being aggrieved by the order dated 27th February 2008 passed in writ petition No.34436 of 1998, this writ appeal has been filed. By virtue of the impugned order passed in the writ petition, Award dated 4th March 1997 made by the Labour Court-II, Hyderabad has been confirmed. Respondent No.1, who was working as a Conductor, was removed from service because of some irregularity-illegality committed in issuance of tickets. The order of removal was set aside by the Labour Court on the ground that the punishment was very harsh and was disproportionate to the gravity of charges established against the 1st respondent/Conductor. The said findings have been confirmed by the learned single Judge. Looking to the concurrent findings arrived at by the authorities below including this Court, we do not find it proper to interfere with the matter. Appeal is dismissed with no order as to costs. _________________ ANIL R. DAVE, CJ 7th July 2008 ______________________ R. SUBHASH REDDY, J ajr To The Presiding Officer, Labour Court-II, Hyderabad.
