Headnote | labour laws: Industrial Disputes Act, 1947-Section 11A-Madhya Pradesh Industrial Relations Act, 1962-Section 107A -Misconduct-Charges of physically assaulting superior officer at work place followed by unauthorised absence from duty, found proved against the delinquent employee-Punishment of dismissal by employer set aside by labour Court on ground that the punishment was punitive-Order of labour Court though reversed by Industrial Court in appeal, was restored by High Court in its writ jurisdiction-Interference with punishment imposed by the employer-Propriety of-Held : On facts, the punishment imposed was not so harsh or disproportionate to the charges proved so as to warrant interference by the labour Court-High Court exceeded its jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution in interfering with the punishment imposed. Employee, a muster roll labourer, during work, allegedly hit his superior officer with a tension screw on his back and on his nose leaving him with a bleeding and broken nose; and thereafter remained unauthorizedly absent for three weeks. The Enquiry Officer found the charges proved, based on which services of the employee were terminated. On reference, Labour Court did not disagree with the finding of misconduct as recorded at the enquiry, but set aside termination holding the punishment to be punitive in nature. It ordered reinstatement of the employee but without back wages. In appeal, the Industrial Court set aside the order of the Labour Court and held that the termination of service as a punishment was justified. The employee filed writ petition, whereupon High Court restored the decision of the Labour Court. |

It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources.
