Patel for petitioner Gujarat<br \/>\n\tHorticulture Nursery and learned Advocate Mr. AB Joshi for original<br \/>\n\trespondent workman   Vaghajibhai Okhabhai Rabari.\n<\/p>\n<p>Original<br \/>\n\tpetitioner has challenged award made by labour court, Ahmedabad in<br \/>\n\tReference NO. 33 of 1991 dated 20.8.2001 wherein labour court has<br \/>\n\tpartly allowed reference with a direction to petitioner to reinstate<br \/>\n\trespondent workman in service with 50 per cent back wages for<br \/>\n\tinterim period with continuity of service.\n<\/p>\n<p>In<br \/>\n\tpetition, initially, notice was issued to petitioner and<br \/>\n\tsubsequently on 10.11.2003, rule was issued by this court. Pending<br \/>\n\tpetition, subject to compliance with section 17B of ID Act, 1947, it<br \/>\n\twas directed that there shall be ad interim stay in terms of<br \/>\n\tparagraph 6(B) of ID Act, 1947. Thus, by way of an ad interim relief<br \/>\n\tgranted by this court, implementation of award was stayed by this<br \/>\n\tcourt subject to compliance of section 17Bof ID Act, 1947.\n<\/p>\n<p>According<br \/>\n\tto workman, he was appointed in April, 1986 as watchman and remained<br \/>\n\tin service upto 13th June, 1990 and thereafter, his<br \/>\n\tservice was terminated, therefore, he raised an industrial dispute<br \/>\n\twhich was referred to labour court for adjudication. Labour Court<br \/>\n\tAhmedabad has come to conclusion that at the time of terminating<br \/>\n\tservice of respondent workman, section 25F of ID Act, 1947 has not<br \/>\n\tbeen complied with by petitioner and workman has not left job at his<br \/>\n\town and, therefore, order of termination has been set aside by<br \/>\n\tlabour court. Considering gainful employment to some extent and not<br \/>\n\tmade sincere efforts for getting job, labour court granted only 50<br \/>\n\tper cent back wages for interim period while keeping in mind fact<br \/>\n\tthat there are six family members, out of them, two are daughters<br \/>\n\tand one son, doing miscellaneous work in one bungalow.\n<\/p>\n<p>Civil<br \/>\n\tApplication No. 13349  of 2009 is filed by respondent workman with a<br \/>\n\tprayer to grant last drawn wages to respondent workman with effect<br \/>\n\tfrom date of award against which counter has not been filed by<br \/>\n\tpetitioner. In Civil Application, respondent workman has made<br \/>\n\tspecific averment that he is unemployed, not gainfully employed, in<br \/>\n\tparagraph 5 and also filed affidavit to that effect  dated<br \/>\n\t15.12.2009 annexure B page 8.\n<\/p>\n<p>Today,<br \/>\n\twhen civil application was taken up for hearing, it is jointly<br \/>\n\tsubmitted by learned Advocates for both parties that the parties to<br \/>\n\tthis petition have arrived at amicable settlement in respect to main<br \/>\n\tspecial civil application No. 6807 of 2002. According to terms of<br \/>\n\tsettlement, petitioner establishment is prepared to reinstate<br \/>\n\trespondent workman  in service with continuity of service and as<br \/>\n\tagainst claim for 50 per cent back wages for interim period from<br \/>\n\tdate of termination till date of award and claim for 17B wages from<br \/>\n\tdate of award till date of reinstatement, petitioner is prepared to<br \/>\n\tpay lumsum amount of Rs.50,000.00 (Rupees fifty thousand only) to<br \/>\n\trespondent workman. These terms of settlement have been explained by<br \/>\n\tlearned Advocate Mr. Joshi to respondent workman Shri Vaghajibhai<br \/>\n\tOkhabhai Rabari who is present before this Court and he has accepted<br \/>\n\tthe same in full and final settlement of award made by labour court,<br \/>\n\tAhmedabad.\n<\/p>\n<p>Therefore,<br \/>\n\tin light of this discussion and amicable settlement arrived at<br \/>\n\tbetween the parties, as aforesaid, it is directed to petitioner to<br \/>\n\treinstate respondent workman Shri Vaghajibhai Okhabhai Rabari in<br \/>\n\tservice with continuity of service within period of one week from<br \/>\n\tdate of receipt of copy of this order. It is directed to petitioner<br \/>\n\tto pay current daily wages to respondent workman from the date of<br \/>\n\this reinstatement.\n<\/p>\n<p>In<br \/>\n\tlieu of the claim for 50 per cent back wages as awarded by labour<br \/>\n\tcourt for interim period from date of termination of service of<br \/>\n\trespondent workman till date of award as well as the claim for<br \/>\n\tbenefit under section 17-B of ID Act from date of award till<br \/>\n\t8.4.2010, it is directed to petitioner to pay lumsum amount of<br \/>\n\tRs.50,000.00 (Rupees fifty thousand only) to respondent workman<br \/>\n\tVaghajibhai Okhabhai Rabari by way of an account payee cheque drawn<br \/>\n\tin favour said respondent workman, after proper verification, within<br \/>\n\tfour weeks from date of receipt of copy of this order.\n<\/p>\n<p>Accordingly,<br \/>\n\taward passed by labour court, Ahmedabad in Reference No. 33 of 1991<br \/>\n\tdated 20.8.2001 is modified and rule is made absolute accordingly in<br \/>\n\taforesaid terms with no order as to costs.\n<\/p>\n<p>Therefore,<br \/>\n\tas a consequence of this settlement arrived at between the parties,<br \/>\n\tnow, respondent workman shall have to withdraw two proceedings filed<br \/>\n\tby him against present petitioner namely Payment of Wages<br \/>\n\tApplication NO. 38 of 2006 and 25 of 2002 and he shall have to<br \/>\n\twithdraw any other application, if any, filed by him against present<br \/>\n\tpetitioner for implementing award made by labour court. Said two<br \/>\n\tapplications and any other proceedings filed by the respondent<br \/>\n\tworkman are required to be withdrawn by respondent workman within<br \/>\n\tperiod of fifteen days from date of receiving copy of this order and<br \/>\n\tcopy of withdrawal is to be given by respondent workman to<br \/>\n\tpetitioner. It is made clear that the aforesaid order has been<br \/>\n\tpassed by this court modifying award by labour court, against all<br \/>\n\trights of respondent workman arising from award passed by labour<br \/>\n\tcourt and therefore, that has to be considered as full and final<br \/>\n\tsatisfaction of award. Parties to this proceeding are directed to<br \/>\n\tabide by the settlement arrived at between them, as recorded by this<br \/>\n\tcourt.\n<\/p>\n<p>In<br \/>\n\tview of the aforesaid order passed by this Court in main special<br \/>\n\tcivil application, civil application No. 13349 of 2009 also stands<br \/>\n\tdisposed of with no order as to costs.\n<\/p>\n<p>(H.K.\n<\/p>\n<p>Rathod,J.)<\/p>\n<p>Vyas<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   Top<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gujarat High Court Vaghajibhai vs Gujarat on 8 April, 2010 Author: H.K.Rathod,&amp;Nbsp;
