Heard Shri R.J. Shinde, learned Counsel for petitioner and Shri Fulzele, learned A.G.P. for respondent no.1. The reference made by the petitioner has been found to be time barred. The award has been delivered on 25.03.1991. The Court has found that the petitioner approached with contention that he received notice on 11.09.1991 and thereafter received compensation on 12.09.1991. The reference has been filed on 07.07.1992, while last date i.e. 60th day would have been 12.11.1991, as per Section 34 of the Maharashtra Industrial Development Act. 2 The learned counsel contends that the notice of award was received on 08.05.1992, however, the finding recorded by the Reference Court are not shown to be either erroneous or perverse. Learned A.G.P. has pointed out that in reference application, in paragraph no.6 petitioner has pleaded that cause of action accrued at Nagpur on 08.05.1992 when petitioner received compensation. It is apparent that the petitioner has not approached this Court with clean hands and he is not in a position to explain the findings reached by the Reference Court. Petition is therefore, rejected. No costs. JUDGE Rgd.
