On behalf of the petitioner it is contended that the services of the workman
were terminated after holding departmental enquiry under order of the
disciplinary authority. Not being satisfied, he preferred an appeal under the
statutory service rules applicable. The appeal was party allowed by the first
appellate authority and reinstatement was directed without any benefit of back
wages. The workman accepted the order so passed and did not raise any
grievance for a period of six years. After more than six years he filed an
application for conciliation, resulting in reference giving rise to the present
writ petition.

Counsel for the petitioner submits that admittedly for this period of six years,
when the petitioner had worked without protest, no benefit monetary or
otherwise could have been awarded by the Labour Court.
The matter requires enquiry by this Court.

Till the next date of listing operation of the award impugned shall remain
stayed.
