ORDERS.A. Bobde, J.1. This is a Notice of Motion taken out by the respondent-workman under Section 17B of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, hereinafter referred to as the 'Act', for full wages last drawn by him or for a direction to deposit the back wages.2. The respondent was directed to be reinstated by the Labour Court along with back wages. The petitioner filed this Writ Petition which is pending since October 7, 2005. On February 22, 2006 the employer seems to have made a statement before this Court that it would reinstate the respondent. Apparently, therefore, this Court granted stay of back wages. There is some dispute whether thereafter employer allowed the respondent to join work or not. However, it is clear that the respondent workman did not take any steps to enforce the order of reinstatement. Since the respondent was not on duty and continued to remain absent, the petitioner issued a charge-sheet dated February 16, 2007. After holding an inquiry, the petitioner has dismis...

The petitioner in Writ Petition No. 67 of 1994 came to be appointed w. e. f. 06.07.1987 while the petitioner in Writ petition No. 171 of 1994 came to be appointed on 25.06.1987.
