STATE OF U.P. Vs. OM PAL SINGH

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Civil APPEAL No. 5772 of 2008

(2.) In this view of the matter, the contention that the engagement of the first Respondent was for only a particular project cannot be appreciated at all. We therefore do not find any ground to interfere with the well-reasoned award passed by the Industrial Tribunal and as endorsed by the High Court. However, we do not find it proper in the facts of the case to sustain the award of back wages in the facts of the present case. Therefore, the award is modified only to the extent that the first Respondent shall not be entitled for the back wages for the period he was not actually in service and for all other purposes his services shall be treated as continuous.

(3.) The appeal is disposed of accordingly.
