Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Aug-17-2005

Reported in: 2006(1)MhLj598

D.D. Sinha, J. 1. Heard Ms. Kalayani Deshpande, learned counsel, for the petitioner and Mr. Badar, learned counsel, for the respondents. 2. This petition is directed against the order of dismissal dated 10-7-1990 passed by the Disciplinary Authority. The counsel for the petitioner contended that the above referred order is challenged basically on two grounds- firstly that the petitioner's request to be represented by defence representative Shri P.L. Sen, senior oversea of Umrer Colliery was rejected by the Inquiry Officer, though under Standing Orders such permission ought to have been granted to him. It is, therefore, contended that the enquiry conducted stands vitiated since the petitioner could not put forth his defence properly for want of permission to be represented by the co-worker. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioner also contended that the order of the Disciplinary Authority is bad in law since the copy of the inquiry report was not furnished to the petitioner before pas...

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Aug-17-2005

Reported in: 2006(1)BomCR351; [2006(108)FLR972]; (2006)IILLJ357Bom; 2006(1)MhLj615

Dharmadhikari B.P., J.1. As the issue involved in all these three writ petitions is identical, writ petitions are taken together for final hearing.2. Heard the learned Counsel for the respective parties.3. Shri Madkholkar, learned Counsel for the petitioners states that the challenge involved in these writ petitions is limited. He contends that the petitioners never disputed their liability to pay minimum wages to the employees. The Notification, revising the minimum wages, issued on 19-3-1991 was actually received by the petitioners on 8-7-1991 and as during that period the rainy season was on, the activities of petitioners were at its lower ebb and hence the difference in amount of minimum wages could not be paid immediately. He states that said difference in minimum wages have been actually paid on 31-10-1991 and the application under Section 20 sub-section (1) of Minimum Wages Act, 1948, was moved by respondent No. 2 before respondent No. 1 on 31-12-1991. He contends that as the ap...

This petition is directed against the order passed by the Settlement Commission dated July 22, 2005 remitting the proceedings back to the Commissioner of Central Excise & Customs, Surat I for decision in terms of sub-section (1) of Section 32L of the Central Excise Act, 1944 read with sub section (1) of Section 127I of the Customs Act, 1962 with direction to dispose it in accordance with the provisions of the aforesaid Acts as if no application under Section 32E of the Central Excise Act or Section 127B of the Customs Act had been made.4. Having heard both the parties, we are of the considered view that non engagement of counsel resulting in three adjournments alone was not sufficient to reach to the conclusion that the applicant was non co-operative. The view taken on the slender ground mentioned is unsustainable. Even otherwise, considering the consensus between the parties and ...
