REGIONAL DIRECTOR ESIC Vs. BHARAT MOTORS

JUDGEMENT

(1.) HEARD the learned counsel for the appellant and perused the impugned order dated 29. 05. 1998.

(2.) A perusal of the impugned order dated 29. 05. 1998 shows that the application filed by the respondent Bharat Motors has been allowed because the provisions of Sec. 45a of the Employees State Insurance Act, 1948 are not complied with. The main contention of the learned counsel for the appellant is that the Sec. 45a of the Employees State Insurance Act, 1948 was not applicable and, therefore, there is no necessity of giving any opportunity of hearing or of showing cause to the respondent before passing the order of demanding the sum of Rs. 16, 196/-from the appellant.

(3.) THE appeal is disposed of accordingly. .
