Present:- Ms. Rana Ghuman, AR for applicant.
Sh. Anshul Pareek, AR for management.
Award : 18.02.2025
Central Government vide Notification No.L-12012/15/2014 (IR(B-II)) Dated 04.04.2014, under
clause (d) of sub-section (1) and sub-section (2A) of Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947
(hereinafter called the ID Act), has referred the following Industrial dispute for adjudication to this Tribunal:-
“Whether action of termination of service of Sh. Sham Lal w.e.f. 01.10.2013 by the management
of Punjab national Bank, Jalandhar is legal, just and valid? What relief the workman is entitled
to and from which date?”
1. Brief facts of the case as stated by the applicant are that the he served w.e.f. 01.01.1993 to 30.09.2013 with
the management as Cheque Collector and used to collect and deliver the daily dak and cheques in the branch
offices as directed by the management. On 01.10.2013, the applicant reported for duty as usual but denied to
duty and was told verbally that in his place, management had engaged new hand and his services are not
required henceforth without giving him in writing. The management had recommended time and again to
continue the applicant in service along with the others to the Head office as according to the branch office, his
services were required and his work and conduct was quite satisfactory and there was no complaint against the
work and conduct of the applicant. The applicant was drawing Rs.15000/- per month as wages on the date of
his termination. The salary was paid to the applicant in his bank account by the management. Neither charge-
sheet was served, nor any show cause notice and inquiry was held against the applicant, which is against the
provisions of natural justice. The management had retained juniors to the applicant in service and who are[भाग II—खण् ड 3(ii)] भारत का रािपत्र : अप्रैल 5, 2025, /र्ैत्र 15, 1947 1367
continuing in service in violation of Section 25-G of the ID Act. The applicant had rendered more than 240
days in each completed year of service proceeding the date of termination. No retrenchment compensation was
paid to the applicant. It is maintained that termination is illegal, void and bad in law and it is prayed that he be
reinstated in service with full back wages and other consequential benefits.
2. Notice of the claim petition was also given to the management, who filed reply thereof, maintaining therein
that the present reference is without jurisdiction on the ground that the present matter does not all fall within
the ambit of Section 2-A of the ID Act. It is denied that the applicant was serving w.e.f.24.09.1992 as cheque
collector with the management. The services of the applicant were utilized purely on need basis for providing
courier service at Regional Processing Centre, Jalandhar (hereinafter called as RPC), at a consolidated
mutually agreed amount of Rs.7133/-, which was increased later in view of the price rise. The arrangement
was made locally by the incumbent of RPC. The persons providing the courier services were being paid auto
rickshaw charges for the purpose. Different persons were providing services as courier during the past at
agreed rates. No records of such persons have been maintained by the management. The applicant was told
around the middle of August by the incumbent of the RPC to bring auto rickshaw as was agreed by him, the
applicant showed his inability to do so. Accordingly, his contract was not renewed further. Thus it was the
voluntary decision of the applicant to discontinue the arrangement. It is also submitted that the non renewal of
the contract does not amount to retrenchment. There was no question of recommending the name of applicant
to the head office or to any other office. It was upto the incumbent of RPC to make arrangement for collection
of cheques from branch and return of the same with whosoever was prepared to render the service at the
agreed rates. There was no need of serving charge-sheet, show cause notice or conducting inquiry against the
applicant or paying him retrenchment compensation, earned leave, medical leave or deduction of EPF and
there was no question of violation of Section 25-G of the ID Act as the applicant was not in the employment of
the management and no employer-employee relationship ever existed between respondent and management. It
is prayed that the reference be dismissed with cost.
Evidence of the parties:-
3. In order to prove case, applicant filed his affidavit WW1 along with documents W1 (statement of account)
and W2 (identity card) and closed his evidence on 03.07.2019. Thereafter, respondent have examined Sh.
Vijay Kumar Asija, Senior Manager, Circle Office, Jalandhar as MW1, who tendered his affidavit as MW1/A
and thereafter, ld. counsel for management closed evidence on 09.09.2019 on behalf of management and the
matter was fixed for arguments.
Submissions of Applicant:
4. While arguing the case, ld. counsel for the applicant contended that applicant was working as cheque
collector since 01.01.1993 till 30.09.2013. He reported on 01.10.2013, but was told verbally not to continue
with the management and at that time, he was drawing salary of Rs.15000/- per month, which was paid in his
bank account. He also contended that this fact has been even admitted by the respondent. It is the case of the
respondent that the contractor of applicant was not renewed as he has not brought auto rickshaw, in which he
was doing courier work. Applicant has also placed on record passbook Ex.W1 and ID card Ex.W2, which
proves that he was in the service of management and was retrenched without retrenchment of compensation.
Ld. counsel for applicant placed on record written arguments.
Submissions of Respondents:
5. On the other hand. ld. counsel for respondent contended that in this case, workman was serving w.e.f.
01.01.1993 as cheque collector with the bank management and he used to collect and deliver the daily dak till
30.09.2013. His services were utilized purely on need basis and initially he was paid Rs.7133/- per month,
which was increased from time to time. When he was asked to bring auto rickshaw, for which payment was
being made to the applicant, applicant showed his inability, accordingly, his contract was not renewed, thus it
was the voluntary decision of the applicant to discontinue his contract. Hence, the case of the applicant does
not fall under Section 2A of the ID Act. Management has also placed on record written arguments prepared by
ld. counsel for management.
6. I have given due consideration to the written arguments filed on behalf of both the parties.
Findings:
7. First this Tribunal is to decide is whether the applicant comes within the definition of "workman" as is
defined in Section 2(S) of the Act. It is mentioned here that applicant was in service of bank w.e.f. 01.01.1993
and continuously worked till 30.09.2013 as cheque collector. In plain words the claimant was performing his
duties as labourer/unskilled worker. He was not in supervisory or administrative post requiring him to perform
only administrative post requiring him to perform only administrative duties. While interpreting Section 2(S)1368 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : APRIL 5, 2025/CHAITRA 15, 1947 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Devinder Singh V/s Municipal Council, Sanaur AlR 2011 Supreme
Court 2532, has observed as follows:-
"The source of employment, the quantum of recruitment, the terms and conditions of
employment/contract of service, the quantum of wages/ pay and mode of payment are not at all
relevant for deciding whether or not a person is a workman within the meaning of Section 2(s) of
Act. The definition of workman also does not make any distinction between full time and part time
employee or a person appointed on contract basis. There is nothing in the plain language of Section
2(s) from which it can be inferred that only person employed on regular basis or a person employed
for doing whole time job is a workman and the one employed on temporary, part time or contract
basis on fixed wages or as a causal employee or for doing duty for fixed hours is not a workman.”
8. Thus, Hon'ble Supreme Court has clarified that the definition of workman also does not make any distinction
between full time or part time or a person appointed on contract basis. There is nothing in employee plain
language of Section 2(S) from which it can be infer that only person employed on regular basis or a person
employed for doing whole time job is a workman and the one employed temporary, part time or contract basis
on fixed wages or as a casual employee or for doing duty for fixed hours is not a workman. In view of the ratio
of law enunciated in the above ruling, in my considered opinion, the claimant herein admittedly falls within the
definition of 'workman' under Section 2(S) of the Act.
9. The payment of salary by the management is admitted by the respondent in its written statement as well as in
the affidavit of filed by Sh. Vijay Kumar Asija, Senior Manager, Circle Office, Jalandhar, wherein he
categorically stated that workman worked on different dates as mentioned in his affidavit and was paid initially
Rs. 7133/- per month, which was increased from time to time. As per applicant, he was retrenched from
service on 01.10.2013. If we take one year prior to 01.10.2013 as stated by the respondent, then he had
completed 240 days in the preceding year as per written statement filed by respondent in this case.
10. Admittedly, the respondent is an industry and there was non- compliance of Section 25-F of the
Act. The workman has already been able to prove that he worked continuously for a period of 240 days prior
to his termination of his services by respondent on 01.10.2013 as he was receiving regular wages from 1993
till 2013 is proven as per statement of workman WW1. It is added here that the applicant worked as cheque
collector w.e.f. 01.01.1993. Admittedly, in this case, applicant was not paid retrenchment compensation as per
Section 25F of the ID Act. As per own case of the respondent, the contract of workman was not renewed. The
said argument of the ld. counsel for the respondent is not having any force as respondent has failed to produce
on record any document showing that workman was engaged on the basis of some contract. Attracting his
retrenchment on the basis of completion of contract as per Section 2(oo) (bb) of the ID Act.
11. Admittedly, there is violation of Section 25-F of the Act and in view of the judgment of Hon'ble
Apex Court in Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd.Vs Man Singh,_2012(1)_SCT 641, it is not necessary that relief of
reinstatement has to be given as a matter of right. Reliance can also be placed upon Jasbir Singh Vs Haryana
State Agriculture Marketing Board, 2009(3) SCT 790, under which it has been held that in the legal position
and the Court had recent past, there had been a shift in consistently taken the view that relief by way of
reinstatement with back wages is not automatic and may he wholly inappropriate in a given fact situation, even
though termination Of an employee was in contravention of the prescribed procedure. Compensation instead of
reinstatement was held to be the prudent relief to meet the ends of justice. Moreover, Hon'ble Supreme Court
of India in case titled as District Development Officer & Anr. V/s Satish Kantilal Amrelia, Civil Appeal Nos.
19857-19858 of 2017; decided on 28 November , 2017 has held as follow:
"that the reasons for denying the relief of reinstatement in such cases are obvious, It is
trite law that when the termination is found to be illegal because of non-payment of
retrenchment compensation and notice pay as mandatorily required under Section 25-F of
the Industrial Disputes Act, even after reinstatement, it is always open to the management
to terminate the services of that employee by paying him the retrenchment compensation.
Since such a workman was working on daily-wage basis and even after he is reinstated, he
has no right to seek regularization. Thus he cannot claim regularization and he has no
right to continue even as daily-wage worker, no useful purpose is going to be served in
reinstatement such a workman and he can be given monetary compensation by the Court
itself inasmuch as if he is terminated again after reinstatement, he would receive monetary
compensation only in the form of retrenchment compensation and notice pay. In such a
situation, giving the relief of reinstatement, that too after a long gap, would not serve any
purpose".
In view of above discussed above workman entitled for compensation as he was working on
temporary basis intermittently.[भाग II—खण् ड 3(ii)] भारत का रािपत्र : अप्रैल 5, 2025, /र्ैत्र 15, 1947 1369
12. Learned counsel for the workman has also argued that for rendering one year service workman
should be granted Rs.1 lac per year and since the workman has worked for about 20 years and therefore
compensation of Rs.20 lac be awarded to the workman in view of the various judgments of Hon'ble Supreme
Court and Hon'ble High Courts.
13. It is added here that in the present case workman has intermittently worked for about 20 years as
cheque collector as is itself stated by the respondent and keeping in view the above discussed circumstances
and case law titled as Hemant Babruvahan Parchake versus Social Welfare Officer, Somalwar Bhavan,
Mount Road, Sadar, Nagpur and others 201 (4) AIR BomR 781, wherein for 18 months, a sum of
Rs.25,000/- was granted as compensation, workman is granted Rs. 3,33,000/- as compensation.
14. Let copy of this award be sent to the Appropriate Government as required under Section 17 of the
Act for publication.

In exercise of the powers conferred by sub-section (5) of Section 12 read with sub-section (2A) of Section 10
of Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (14 of 1947) (“the Act” in short), the Central Government has referred the industrial

“Whether the action of the management of CSIR-National Environmental Engineering Research
Institute (NEERI), Nagpur through its Director in terminating the contract workers from their job

2. Case called out. Both the parties are absent. Both the parties are not responding and attending the Court
since 20/03/2020. Only on 06/12/2021 and 28/12/2021 Counsel for the management was present but petitioner was
still not present on that dates. Although statement of claim and written statement have been filed by the parties
respectively. Petitioner has also filed an affidavit in support of his contents alleged in statement of claim. It is also
alleged that party no. 2, workman was never been appointed as Part Time Sub Staff on permanent basis. Therefore,
question does not arise for termination of his service, either orally or in writing. It is submitted that he was engaged as
Part Time Sub Staff. Party no. 2 was engaged on temporary basis and as such on completion of the temporary work,
his services are automatically comes to an end. Party no. 2 has not even completed more than 240 days continuous
service with the bank during period of 12 months preceding the date of termination. Therefore he is not entitled for
reinstatement in service but contrary to it, it is alleged by the petitioner that he worked at Chandikapur Branch of
Bank of Maharashtra as part time sub staff from 11/04/2007 to April 2009. He has also alleged that there was a
permanent vacancy of part time sub staff at Chandikapur Branch and appointed as permanent staff. It is also alleged
that he has joined this duty from 02/02/2008 and his name was entered on Muster roll after the name of one Shri.
Swarge. It is also alleged that due to his experience in the bank working from 01/07/2007 to 31/01/2008 and after his
name sponsored through employment exchange and subsequent selection after due interview, he was appointed in the
bank from 01/02/2008 to fill in permanent vacancy of part time sub staff. But in his cross examination witness Shri.
Rajesh has stated that he worked at Chandikapur Branch of Bank of Maharashtra during period from 01/07/2007 to
01/04/2009 i.e. near about one year & nine months but he has admitted that in his representation Exhibit W-XII does
not show the acknowledgement of any of the authority of the Bank in acknowledgement of receipt of the same. He
has also admitted in his cross examination that it is a fact that Exhibit W-III is an office order regarding his temporary
appointment as PTS from 04/10/2007 to 30/10/2007. It is a fact that in Exhibit W-III, it has been mentioned that after
30/10/2007, his engagement will be terminated automatically. It is a fact that in Exhibit W-IX also, it has been
mentioned that he was appointed as waiting PTS. He has admitted that it is true to say that on the date of filing his
statement of claim he had already crossed the age of 33 years.
From perusal of evidence adduced by both the parties it is apparent that workman Mr. Rajesh has clearly
admitted in his cross examination that he worked with party no. 01, Bank at their Chandikapur Branch for the period
from 04/10/2007 to 30/10/2007.
Learned Counsel for the management has stated in his written notes of argument that one Gyneshwar Mahadeorao
Nimkar of Tarapur quarreled with him. The factual position was that party no. 02 demanded Rs.500/- from
Gyneshwar Mahadeorao Nimkar towards collection and payment of cheque under Indira Awas Gharkul Yojana,
thereafter, lodged a police complaint against party no. 02. Thereafter the preliminary enquiry was conducted against
party no. 02 and he was found guilty. Due to such action of party no. 02 he tried to spoil the image of the Bank and
Bank lost confidence in him. Party no. 02 was not permanent employee. There was no necessity to issue him notice of
30 days or notice pay in lieu of notice and other compensation, as contemplated under Section 25-F of ID Act. Party
no 01 has filed his evidence on affidavit, however, the witness of the management was not cross examined by the
party no. 02 and as such the submission of the party no. 01 went unchallenged.
Petitioner, party no. 02 himself has admitted that his employment was temporary. It is also admitted by him
that after 30/10/2007 his engagement/appointment will be terminated automatically. He had already crossed the age of
33 years. He is unable to establish that he has worked for 240 days continuously uninterrupted and his appointment
was regular appointment in lieu of permanent vacancy of Part Time Sub Staff. Therefore, there is no need of
termination of his services either orally or in writing. He was engaged on temporary basis and such on completion of
the temporary work his services are automatically comes to an end. Petitioner has not given any other evidence to
establish his claim. Claim of the petitioner is not proved. In view of the above, party no. 02 is not entitled for
reinstatement and back wages as he is in gainful employment.
Hence, it is ordered:
ORDER

ORDER
The applicant-workman has filed an application under section 2-A(2) of the Industrial Disputes Act (herein-
after referred as an act).
2. The case of the applicant-workman as per his statement of claim is as follows:-
He had worked for more than 13 years as a high skilled worker as an Heavy Vehicle Driver uninterruptedly
and continuously under the direct control of the Management No. 2 through vendor contractor. His work was being
supervised by the officials of the Management No. 2. He was getting less wages than the minimum wages prescribed
from time to time. He was never paid bonus throughout his service period although he was legally entitled to. The 1st
Party-Management No. 1 was always irregular in making payment to him. The Managements always reluctant to
provide minimum facilities. He had insisted for payment of wages at par with counterpart on regular roll, the 1st
Party-Management No. 2 illegally and arbitrarily retrenched him on dated 14.06.2016 without giving any prior notice
and retrenchment benefits. He raised a dispute before the labour machinery and when the conciliation proceeding was
delayed, he preferred the present application under section 2-A(2) of the Act.
He has prayed for direction to the Managements to reinstate him in service with full back wages and other
benefits applicable under law.
3. The 1st Party-Management No. 2 appeared and filed its written statement denying entire averments of the
applicant-workman.1384 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : APRIL 5, 2025/CHAITRA 15, 1947 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]

employee between them and with the applicant-workman. The applicant was never recruited through any
recruitment process and no appointment letter was issued. The Management No. 2 never paid any wages
to the applicant workman directly as he was the employee of the contractor. The Management No. 2 has
also submitted that the contractor Management No. 1.
The Management no. 1 has not appeared and has not filed any written statement in this case.
4. Applicant-workman is asked to prove his case. However, despite providing a number of opportunities,
applicant-workman has not turned up to prove his claim. As the applicant-workman has not turned up for proving his
case, his claim stands dismissed.
5. Order is passed accordingly.
6. A copy of this order is sent to the appropriate government for notification as required under section 17 of the

ORDER
In the present case, a reference was received from the Under Secretary to the Government of India, Ministry
of Labour & Employment, New Delhi vide order No. L-43011/03/2018 – IR(M), dated 21.12.2018 under clause (d) of
sub-section (1) and sub-section (2A) of Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 for adjudication of a dispute,
under the following schedule:-
“Whether the enquiry proceeding by the management of National Aluminium Co. Ltd., Odisha against
the workman Shri Krushna Singh Junka is vitiated? If yes, what relief the workman is entitled to?”
2. In the reference order, the Under Secretary to Government of India, Ministry of Labour & Employment, New
Delhi commanded the parties raising the dispute to file statement of claim, complete with relevant documents, list of
reliance and witnesses with this Tribunal within 15 days of receipt of the reference order and to forward a copy of
such statement of claim to each one of the opposite parties involved in the dispute.
3. Despite directions so given, no statement of claim is received from the 2nd party-Union.
4. On receipt of the above reference, notice was sent to the 2nd Party-Union on 21.01.2020, 16.03.2020,
03.04.2023 and lastly on dated 08.05.2023 for appearance and for filing of statement of claim. Neither the postal
article sent to the 2nd Party-Union, referred to above, was received back nor was it observed by the Tribunal that
postal services remained unserved in the period, referred to above. Therefore, every presumption lies in favour of the
fact that the above notices were served upon the 2nd Party-Union. Despite service of the notice, the 2nd Party-Union
opted to abstain away from the proceedings. No claim statement was filed on its behalf. Thus, it is clear that the 2nd
Party-Union is not interested in adjudication of the reference on merits.
5. Since the 2nd Party-Union has neither filed statement of claim nor has led any evidence so as to prove its
cause against the Management, it is presumed that there is no claim of workman against the Management.
6. In view of such, no claim Order is passed by this Tribunal.
7. Let this order be sent to the appropriate Government, as required under Section 17 of the Industrial
Disputes Act, 1947, for publication.

AWARD
The Government of India, Ministry of Labour by its order No. L-12012/ 45/ 2004-IR(B.I) dated 23.7.2004
referred the following dispute under section 10(1)(d) of the I.D. Act, 1947 for adjudication to this Tribunal between
the management of State Bank of India and their workman. The reference is,
SCHEDULE
“Whether the action of the management of State Bank of India, Vijayawada in dismissing the services of
Smt. K. Saraswathi, Ex-Clerk is justified? If not, to what relief the workman is entitled to?”
The reference is numbered in this Tribunal as I.D. No. 124/2004 and notices were issued to the parties concerned.
Earlier present ID was decided by this tribunal by an award related 8.8.2006 against which the Petitioner preferred
Writ Petition No.20986 of 2007 and Hon’ble High Court of AP has set aside the award dated 8.8.2006 passed by the
Tribunal and remitted the matter back to the CGIT cum Labour Court for disposal on merits and in strict accordance
with the procedure established by law. Therefore, matter has been heard afresh and being decided.
2. The averments made is the claim statement are as follows:
The Petitioner aggrieved by the action of the respondents for awarding disproportionate punishment of dismissal of
the Petitioner from the service without following the laid down procedure and not paying the Management PF
Contribution, Gratuity, Pension and superannuation benefits along with arrears as highly illegal, arbitrary, unjust,
improper, discriminatory and violation of principles of natural justice. It is submitted that Petitioner's husband Late
Sri K. Venkata Ramana Prasad was appointed as cashier in the respondent bank on 11.5.1966, while he was working
as Deputy Head Cashier at Governorpeta Branch died on 20.7.1982. Due to sudden death of Late K Venkata
Ramana Prasad to enable the family to tide over the sudden crisis and to relieve from financial destitution the
Petitioner was appointed as clerk in the respondent Bank on 8.3.1983, on compassionate grounds and posted at
Vijayawada branch as clerk. It is further submitted that while she was working at Vijayawada Branch Respondent
Bank suspended the Petitioner in violation of the Bipartite Settlements/awards and without furnishing the purpose for
which the Petitioner was suspended vide order dated 24.8.2001 served on the Petitioner. It is further submitted that as
per the service conditions vide clause 19.11 of First Bipartite Settlement dt. 19-10-1966 & Clause 11 of the MoS
dated 10-4-2002, the Petitioner shall be communicated about the decision of disciplinary action within 3 days thereof.
But in this case the Petitioner was issued with show cause notice dated 16.10.2001 i.e.. about 2 months and the charge
sheet dt.29-5-2002 was issued after 9 months. It is gross violation of clause 11 of the settlements signed under
sec.2(p), Sec. l 8(1) of the ID Act 1947 read with rule 58 of the Industrial Disputes (Central Rules 1957). It is
submitted that the Branch Manager of Nunna Branch has issued a show cause notice alleging certain serious
omissions and commissions of fraud against the Petitioner, calling her explanation within 10 days. The Petitioner has
sent her reply vide her letter dt.21-01-2001 denying the allegations. It is submitted that the Assistant General Manager
& Disciplinary Authority had issued a Charge sheet dt. 29-03-2002, with vague allegations in terms of 521 (4) (i) of1404 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : APRIL 5, 2025/CHAITRA 15, 1947 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
Sastry Award read with para 18.28 of Desai Award and subsequent Bipartite Agreements calling explanation within
15 days from the Petitioner. The Petitioner has sent her reply to the Respondent vide her letter dt. 8-6-2002 denying
the allegations. But alleged misconduct is not in the definition of Gross misconduct and hence, the charge sheet is not
maintainable in the eye of law. It is submitted that the Charge sheet clearly indicates that the Disciplinary Authority
had already come to a definite opinion and closed mind about the alleged misconduct as if committed by the
Petitioner and with bias against him, which is violative of the principles of natural justice. Audi alteranm partem is the
principle that no one should be condemned without a hearing in which they are given the opportunity to respond to
the accusations against them. It is considered a principle of fundamental justice and without proper evaluation of the
evidence, when the allegation of forgery and withdrawal was not established without considering the version of the
Petitioner and the records is gross violation of the said principle. The Complainant /Account Holder Smt. Y. Nirmala
Devi of the Respondent Bank stated in PEX 8, that she visited the Bank on 07-03-2001 without passbook and asked
the help of the Petitioner to withdraw the amount of Rs 30.000 and that The Petitioner witnessed her signature. This is
the self declaration given by account holder herself which is recorded as PEX 8 and the Inquiry Officer ignored here
PEX 8, the transaction which has been duly verified by the branch manager. But, in this case the Petitioner was all of
a sudden suspended and not aware whether the suspension is on account of pending enquiry or initiation of enquiry,
thus the DA with out mentioning the reasons and grounds suspended the Petitioner which is in violation of the
settlement unlawful, unjust and arbitrary and violation articles of the constitution of India. It is submitted that
Petitioner received notice of enquiry to be held at Nunna Branch and the copies of the documents relied by the
Respondent Bank, will be provided during the enquiry. It is submitted that the Petitioner attended the enquiry on 30-
7-2002 and gave a representation authorizing Ch. Venkateswara Rao, Asst. General Secretary to defend her case in
the enquiry. The next date of enquiry was 9-8-2002 and the enquiry was concluded on the same date. Further, it is
submitted that the punishment awarded to the Petitioner disproportionate. Hence, this petition. The Petitioner further
submits that there is no financial loss to the bank. The para 521(4)() of Sastry Award states that " doing any act
prejudicial to the interest of the Bank or gross negligence or negligence involving or likely to involve the bank into
serious loss". But the prosecution has miserably failed to prove the ingredients of the allegation leveled against the
Petitioner. The allegation though was not proved the prosecution failed to establish about the loss suffered by the
bank. Hence the entire charge sheet shall be treated as not proved and the punishment awarded to the Petitioner is not
only disproportionate but shall be reviewed in terms of the punishment under clause para 521 (7) of Sastry Award &
clause 8 of the MoS dated 10-4-2002 . The Presenting officer had submitted his report to the Enquiry Officer, but not
provided a copy of the Presenting officer, to enable the Defence counsel of the Petitioner to submit his counter
objections on the report. It is bad in law and violation of principles of natural justice. It is pertinent to submit that the
Defence counsel submitted his brief to the Enquiry Officer on 14-10-2002, without an opportunity to counter brief of
the Presenting Officer. It is unfair and unconstitutional to deny the report of the PO. However, the EO without
providing an opportunity to peep into the averments made by the PO reached to conclusions without proper
evaluation of the evidence on record. The Enquiry Officer submitted enquiry report dated 23-10-2002 to the
Respondent finding the Petitioner guilty of all the 4 charges levelled against her. The respondent issued proceedings
No. DPS/R- 11/No. 568 dated 24-10-2002 forwarding a copy of the enquiry report to the Petitioner and asking for any
submissions in reply to the enquiry report within 15 days. In reply to the same, the Petitioner addressed a letter dated
14-11-2002, giving an explanation to all the charges and requesting to exonerate the Petitioner from the charges.
Later, the respondent, issued proceedings No. DPS/R-11/No.844, dated 13-01-2003, stating that the penalty of
Dismissal from Bank Service without notice" is decided to be imposed on the Petitioner in terms of para 6(a) of the
memorandum of settlement dated 10.4.2002 in Disciplinary Action Procedure in the Bank. The copy of the final
disciplinary proceedings were sent to the Petitioner. In the instant case there is no legal evidence available to prove
the alleged charges and in fact on record that the charge was negated by the customer vide PEX-8 herself deposing
that she herself came to the bank on 7-3-200l and presented the withdrawal form. Hence, the charge is disproved
beyond reasonable doubt. The material on record was failed to establish any forgery etc.. It is bad in law and the
Hon'ble court in the case of Central Bank of India V Prakash Chand Jain. (1969 IILLJ 377 SC) has expressed that in
such case of two fold test the Findings of the EO shall be considered as perversity of findings. It is to note that on
perusal of the findings of the EO, reached to conclusions mechanically without considering the enquiry proceedings
where depositions of PW1 to PW3 who were negated the charges. The EO findings the allegation of forgery was not
proved and the statement of PWl negated the allegation. It is further submitted that relying upon the false and
frivolous findings of the Enquiry Officer, DA simply adopted the findings of the EO without considering the
proceedings and the nature of omission and commission and gave the punishment in the absence of any
documentary/oral evidence, is not acceptable and the then Branch Manager and other Assistant Sri D.Suryanarayana
Sastry equally negligent due to which the alleged omission and commissions ought to have averted if they observed
the lapses in the system in performing duties. But, the management has not given any punishment to them
surprisingly, the Assist (A & C) was treated the vital allegation as matter of administration and discharged from
accountability with a caution vide letter dt.26-6-2002 issued by the Disciplinary authority in the capacity of
Asst.General Manager. It is further submitted that the punishment imposed on the Petitioner is shockingly
disproportionate to the charges proved. It is further submitted that the then Branch Manager PWI deposed that
Mr.Rawoof initialed the balance columns in the Ledger Book. The Accountant Sri Rawoof was not summoned by the
Respondent Bank to depose on this aspect. In the absence of the evidence of the Accountant Sri Rawoof, it cannot be[भाग II—खण् ड 3(ii)] भारत का रािपत्र : अप्रैल 5, 2025, /र्ैत्र 15, 1947 1405
held that the charges against the Petitioner are sufficiently proved. The Respondent completely shifted the burden on
to the Petitioner, absolving the Branch Manager who is duly bound to verify the signature on the withdrawal form
with that of the specimen signature at the time of passing the withdrawal form and more so when he was informed by
the Petitioner that the account holder came to the Bank without passbook and asked her help. There is no action
against the Accountant and the Branch Manager at Nunna Branch and only targeted Petitioner and removed from the
service and the punishment is too harsh and disproportionate to the charges and unsustainable. Petitioner approached
Appellate Authority through representation which was dismissed on 24-04-2003 without assigning any reasons and
rationale to arrive such decision to dismiss the appeal. It is further submitted that challenging the Award dt.08-08-
2006 of dismissing the dispute of Petitioner, passed in ID 124 of 2004 on the file of the Central Government
Industrial Tribunal - cum- Labour Court at Hyderabad, the Petitioner filed Writ Petition before the erstwhile AP High
Court at Hyderabad vide WP No.20986 of 2007. It is further submitted that the Hon'ble High court allowed the Writ
Petition and setting aside the Award dt 8-8-2006, in ID No.124 of 2004 and remitted the matter back to the CGIT for
disposal afresh on merits and in strict accordance with the procedure established by law. The Hon'ble High Court
considering the fact that the Petitioner already attained the age of superannuation and the matter is sufficiently old
matter directed the tribunal to dispose the matter as expeditiously as possible, preferably within 3 months from the
date of receipt of a copy of the order. None of the allegations was proved during the enquiry. It is essentially required
to be proved in accordance with law. Denial of opportunity to employee to submit his version, relying on the
documents used by the management to prepare the charge sheet is gross violation of the principles of natural justice
and vitiates the departmental enquiry for non-adherence to principles of natural justice as held by the Apex court in
the case of L.I.C. of India v. Ram Pal Singh Bisen. The Petitioner is unable eke out her livelihood due to financial
problems and added to the financial crisis she is old and suffering from old age ailments. The Management has neither
paid the Bank's PF contribution nor paid the gratuity to the service she rendered to the bank for more than 18 years.
The Petitioner since already attained superannuation though shè is entitled for all the superannuation benefits
including the payment of pension etc.. the bank has not paid the superannuation benefits to the Petitioner is violation
of article 2l of the constitution of India. Therefore, Petitioner prayed to set aside the dismissal order dated 13.1.2003
duly granting all consequential benefits etc..
3. Respondent filed counter denying the averments of the Petitioner as under:
It is submitted that the dispute raised by the Petitioner is neither maintainable in law nor on facts of the case and as
such the same is to be dismissed in limine. It is submitted that the material allegations made in the petition filed by
the Petitioner are not true and correct and the Respondent Bank denies all the allegations leveled against the Bank,
except those which are specifically admitted therein. It is submitted that the Petitioner is raising unfounded dispute
and entered into litigation. It is submitted that the Petitioner being an employee, has to Work as per the service rules
and guidelines stipulated to her post by Bank. Any misconduct committed by employee results in initiation of
Disciplinary Proceedings against such person. It is submitted that the Petitioner knowing fully the lapses committed
on her part, which are all on record, is however, trying to convince the Hon'ble Court on sympathetic grounds by
filing this petition. It is submitted that the Petitioner cannot claim Pension as of right, as she has no vested right to
claim Pension. The reason is, as per record, she has not completed the required period of service as required and
essential under the service rules applicable to her to be eligible to get Pension. On the other hand, the Petitioner is
claiming other incidental benefits to which she is not eligible. On this ground itself, the petition is liable to be
dismissed. It is submitted that the Petitioner Smt K.Saraswathi was appointed in the Bank on compassionate grounds
in March 1983 consequent to death of her husband who worked as Deputy head cashier in the Bank. It is submitted
that subsequently, the Petitioner was issued charge sheeted vide Memorandum No.DPS/R-1/172 dated 29.05.2002 for
certain irregularities/lapses viz., Presenting forged withdrawal pertaining to customer Smt Y.Nirmala Devi's account
and obtaining payment thereof; unauthorizedly keeping the amount withdrawn by means of such forged withdrawal
for a considerable period of 5 months 10 days with her; Posting two extraneous credits to the account of Smt.
Y.Nirmala Devi, the customer, without supporting vouchers and; altering the balance in the savings bank account of
Smt.Y.Nirmala Devi, the customer, on several occasions to facilitate monthly balancing of SB accounts. It is
submitted that on being not satisfied with the reply of the Petitioner, a detailed domestic enquiry was ordered by
appointing the Enquiry Officer and the presenting officer under advise to the Petitioner. The Petitioner / charge-
sheeted employee was represented by the Assistant General Secretary of Zonal Office, Vijayawada, of State Bank of
India Staff Union, Hyderabad Circle. The Enquiry Officer submitted his report on 24.10.2002 and held the charges as
'Proved' based on the material evidence, documents and records. A Copy of the enquiry report was also furnished to
the Petitioner. Subsequently, the Petitioner's submission were received on 15.11.2002. Taking into consideration the
entire material on record pertaining to the case of the Petitioner and as malafides were involved, the then Asst.
General Manager & Disciplinary Authority proposed tentative penalty of "Dismissal from Bank Service" vide
memorandum no. DPS/R-II/755 dated 19.12.2002. It is further submitted that the Petitioner was thereafter provided
with personal hearing on 11.01.2003 for any further submissions. Based on the submissions given by her on personal
hearing, material evidence and other documents, papers and all exhibits, the then Asst. General Manager &
Disciplinary Authority made absolute the proposed punishment and accordingly served the final Orders vide
Memorandum No. DPS/R-II/844 dated 13.01.2003 imposing the penalty of "Dismissal from Bank's Service without
notice" as provided for in the Bi-Partite Settlements. The Petitioner preferred departmental appeal vide letter and1406 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : APRIL 5, 2025/CHAITRA 15, 1947 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
dated 27.02.2003. The Deputy General Manager Appellate Authority, after taking into consideration all the material
facts, evidences, depositions, and the contentions / grounds raised in the appeal, had independently examined the case
and recorded his findings wherein it was clearly established that signature of the account holder with other records
vary with the impugned withdrawal slip and the same was verified by the Government Examiner; it is also proved that
the Petitioner made the amount good subsequently and that the Petitioner has kept the money (Rs.30,000/-) with her
for 05 month and 10 days; and that the Petitioner had posted extraneous credits without supporting vouchers and the
balances were altered in the ledger account; Thus, it was established that the Petitioner had withdrawn the amount
through forged withdrawal, kept the amount with her for some period and made good the amount only after the
account holder made a Complaint, posted two credits, altered the ledger account of the customer. Hence, the
contentions / grounds raised by the Petitioner in the departmental appeal were held to be untenable. The Petitioner in
fact was appointed on compassionate grounds and hence, she should not have committed such irregularities by
misusing her powers in the discharge of duties. Therefore, the General Manager and Appellate Authority, held that the
appeal has no merits and declined to interfere with the orders of the Disciplinary Authority, hence, rejected the
departmental appeal vide Orders dated 24.04.2003. It is submitted that as the Petitioner K Saraswathi did not attend
the court, NIL Award was passed by CGIT due to her non appearance. Hence, the Petitioner is well aware about the
commission of lapses. It is submitted that the Petitioner subsequently challenged the said Nil Award before Hon'ble
High Court of Hyderabad by way of filing the Writ Petition No. 20986 of 2007, wherein the Hon'ble High Court
considering the fact that the Petitioner was appointed on compassionate grounds held that an opportunity has to be
given to her to have her case decided on merits. It is submitted that it is a matter of record that the disciplinary
proceedings were already taken against Petitioner for her lapses in duty and the enquiry was conducted by the
concerned authority of the Bank following the stipulated guidelines, giving opportunity to Petitioner at every stage of
enquiry which took place way back in the year 2002-2003. As her lapses were proved, the order of Dismissal was
passed against her. In the appeal filed by her against the order vide order No DPS/R-II/No 844 dated 13.01.2003, was
also dismissed onn 24.04.2003. This fact was also admitted by the Petitioner in her petition. Thus, the order had
become final and the Petitioner also received her PF which contributions she was eligible under law. The Petitioner
has attained the age above 60 years and at this juncture cannot claim any benefits as she is not eligible to get any
relief sought by her. But as per record, she has completed 19 years of service only. So, she is ineligible to get
pension as per service rules applicable to her. It is also pertinent to note that the contention raised by the Petitioner
that there is no loss to the Bank is highly untenable at the cost of her apology as the Bank is a financial institution and
integrity and honesty is the basic norm expected from all its employees. The loss of reputation is also an issue and
hence, the contentions raised by the Petitioner are liable to be rejected. It is submitted that the Petitioner was paid the
benefits that are payable to a dismissed employee and she cannot claim more than what was paid to her by Bank i.e.,
PF contribution paid to her. As more than 17 years passed from the date of dismissal and Petitioner attained age of
superannuation i.e., 60 years, now it is unfeasible to consider the merits in this case, as no benefit can be extended by
Bank to the Petitioner in these circumstances. It is submitted that the Rules as applicable to the Petitioner were
imposed as per the Bi-Partite Settlements. It is also relevant to refer to the decisions of the Hon'ble Supreme Court,
while adjudicating the issues, involving similar situation, in State Bank cf Bikaner and Jaipur vs. Nemi Chand
Nalwaya AIR 2011 SC 1931, Judgment reported in (1998) 4 SCC310, Vishwamohun Vs. Union of India, Judgment of
the Hon'ble Supreme Court rendered in Tarachand Vyas Vs. Chairman, Disciplinary Authority reported in (1997) 4
SCC 565. Bank employees deal with the money of depositors and customers. As such they are required to take all
possible steps to protect the interest of the Bank and to discharge their duties with utmost integrity, honesty and
devotion and to do nothing which is unbecoming of a Bank employee/Officer. It is no defence to say that there is no loss or
profit resulted in the case. It is pertinent to state that owing to fraudulent acts of the Petitioner, the bank is put to reputation loss
and loss of public money and there are no extenuating circumstances warranting for extending sympathy to consider for any
leniency in the matter". It is submitted that the petition is baseless on facts and untenable as per Law. Hence, the petition is
liable to be dismissed with exemplary costs, as the petition is devoid of merits.
4. Both the parties have submitted their written submissions.
5. On the basis of rival pleadings of both the parties following issues arise for determination in the
present case:-
I. Whether the departmental enquiry held against Smt. K. Saraswathi, Ex. Clerk of State Bank of
India is legal and valid?
II. Whether the action of management of State Bank of India, Vijayawada in dismissing the services
of Smt. K. Saraswathi, Ex. Clerk is justified?
III. To what relief the Workman is entitled?
Findings:-
6. Point No. I:- The legality and validity of departmental enquiry has been held legal and valid vide order dated
22.11.2024.
This point is decided accordingly.[भाग II—खण् ड 3(ii)] भारत का रािपत्र : अप्रैल 5, 2025, /र्ैत्र 15, 1947 1407
7. Point No. II:- In the instant case Petitioner Smt. K. Saraswathi has challenged her dismissal order passed by
respondent vide proceeding dated 13.1.2003 imposing the penalty of dismissal from bank’s services without notice
on the grounds of that being it is illegal, arbitrary, unjust, improper and in violation of principles of natural justice.
8. The record of enquiry proceeding goes to reveal that following charges framed against the charge sheeted
employee:-
“1. It is reported that on 7.3.2001 you have presented a forged Savings Bank withdrawal dated 7.3.2001 for
Rs.30,000/- without pass book pertaining to SB account No.12/2556 of Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi, a customer
and obtained payment thereof.
2. It is reported that you have unauthorizedly kept the amount of Rs.30,000/- withdrawn by you from the SB
account No.12/2556 of Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi by means of a forged withdrawal on 7.3.2001 till 17.8.2001 i.e.,
for a period of 5 months – 10 days and when Smt. Y. Nirmaladevi made a complaint to the Branch manager
of Nunna branch, you have made good the said amount on 17.8.01 to the Branch Manager, State Bank of
India, Nunna with a written request to handover the same to Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi.
3. It is reported that you have posted two extraneous credits of Rs.30,000/- each on 22.3.2001 and 13.4.2001 in
the saving bank account no.12/2556 of Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi, a customer, without supporting vouchers.
4. It is reported that you have altered the balances in the Savings Bank Account No.12/2556 of Smt Y. Nirmala
Devi on several occasions from 7.3.01 onwards to facilitate monthly balancing.”
After recording the evidence, Enquiry Officer had found charge sheeted employee guilty of the charges as mentioned
above.
9. First and foremost plea taken by Petitioner is that the complaint is starting point of any disciplinary action
but in the present matter there is no complaint against the Petitioner and Enquiry Officer has not called the customer,
the complainant as management witness in the enquiry whereas the PW1 in his cross examination has clearly stated
that as per PEx.8 the complainant /account holder Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi visited bank on 7.3.2001 without passbook
and asked the help of Petitioner to withdraw an amount of Rs.30,000/- from her account. Therefore, Petitioner has
signed as a witness on withdrawal form. Thus, for the want of evidence of complainant customer Smt. Y. Nirmala
Devi the dismissal order of Petitioner is illegal and liable to be set aside.
10. Perused the record. In this case the disciplinary proceedings was initiated against the CSE Petitioner on the
charge of committing misconduct while she was working in the Bank as Senior Assistant. The allegation against the
Petitioner is that she had presented forged SB account withdrawal form and obtained the payment of Rs.30,000/-
from the SB Account of customer Smt. Nirmala Devi unauthorizedly and misappropriated the aforesaid amount for
considerable period of 5 months 10 days. Secondly, she has been charge sheeted for altering the balances in SB
account No.12/2556 of Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi, without supporting voucher and altering the balances in SB account of
the customer to facilitate monthly balancing and such acts of CSE which amounted to gross misconduct. The
charges alleged has been held proved against CSE in the disciplinary proceedings and Enquiry Officer on the basis
of appreciation of documentary and oral evidence of PW1, PW2, PW3 and PW4 on record has submitted his report
holding CSE guilty of charges.
11. It is settled law that a customer of bank need not be involved in a domestic enquiry conducted as such a
course would not be conducive to proper banker customer relationship and therefore, would not be in the interest of
bank. In this context, reference of the decision of State Bank of India vs Tarun Kumar Banerjee, AIR 2000 page
3028 is relevant. Therein Hon'ble Supreme Court have held that customer of the bank cannot be involved in
domestic enquiry against the employees of the bank as it would not be conducive to proper bank-customer
relationship. Thus, in view of the law laid down by the Hon’ble Apex Court as discussed above, the plea raised by
the Petitioner in this respect is not tenable.
12. Further Petitioner has taken the plea that the statement of imputation of misconduct on which CSE was
charge sheeted employee shall accompany a charge sheet to submit her reply. The object of furnishing statement of
imputation to the delinquent official is to give him all the necessary particulars and details relating to charge so that
she will have sufficient opportunity to put her defence. But in the instant case she has been denied the supply of list
of documents and list of witnesses produced by Management in support of the charges. Further, it is contended that
Audi Alteram Partem is the principle that no one should be condemned without a hearing in which they are given the
opportunity to respond to the accusations against them when the allegation of forgery and withdrawal was not
established. The Management in the instant case without considering the version of the Petitioner and the records has
passed her dismissal order in gross violation of the said principle.
13. On the other hand, Learned Counsel for Respondent contended that the departmental enquiry against the
charge sheeted employee has been held by following the principles of natural justice and fair opportunity of hearing
was extended to the Petitioner during the enquiry. Further, it is submitted that the defence representative was also
permitted during the enquiry on behalf of the Petitioner. Therefore, the claim of the Petitioner that fair opportunity of
hearing was not accorded is baseless and not acceptable.1408 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : APRIL 5, 2025/CHAITRA 15, 1947 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
14. Perused the record of enquiry proceeding. The record of enquiry goes to reveal that Petitioner CSE has been
accorded ample opportunity of hearing at every stage of the proceeding which she availed and she never raised any
objection at any stage of proceeding complaining of causing of prejudice of any nature to her before the Enquiry
Officer. Further, the record of enquiry proceeding goes to show that she received all the papers and documents filed
that relied upon by the Respondent bank in support of the charge sheet and she also filed her reply and also cross
examined the management witness and the opportunity to adduce evidence in defence was also accorded to her which
she did not avail. The inquiry report further goes to show that the Enquiry Officer appreciated the oral or documentary
evidence and thereafter has submitted his reasoned report holding the CSE guilty of all four charges. Therefore, in
the instant case, no case is made out to hold that domestic enquiry suffers from any procedural lapses or was
conducted in violation of principles of natural justice thereby causing any prejudice to the rights of the applicant.
Further, the record of enquiry proceeding goes to reveals that defence representative on behalf of the charge sheeted
employee has also submitted his written brief on conclusion of the hearing of the enquiry and she never complained
of non-service of documents on which the Respondent has relied upon in support of the charge. Therefore, in view
of fore gone discussion the plea of the Petitioner that she was not accorded fair opportunity of hearing during
enquiry proceeding is not tenable.
15. Further, it is contended on behalf of the Petitioner that the charges were framed against the Petitioner with
the allegation that on 7.3.2001 she had presented a forged Savings Bank withdrawal dated 7.3.2001 for Rs. 30,000/-
without passbook pertaining to SB account No.12/2256 of Smt. Y.Nirmala Devi a customer and obtained the payment
herself and misappropriated the same unauthorizedly by keeping amount of Rs.30,000/- for the period of 5 months 10
days without any justification and explanation. Further, when customer/Account holder Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi made a
complaint to the Branch Manager of Nunna branch, CSE has made good the amount on 17.8.2001. Petitioner
contended that none of the ingredients of i.e., forged withdrawal, unauthorisedly keeping money with her has been
proved in the absence of evidence either through oral or through documentary. Therefore, the claim of the respondent
that charge stands proved against CSE is arbitrary and frivolous.
16. In this context, perused the record. It is undisputed that there was withdrawal of the amount of Rs.30,000/-
from the account No.12/ 2566 of Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi on 7.3.2001 by the Petitioner and same amount was handed
over to the Branch Manager by the Petitioner /CSE on 17.8.2001 after a period of 5 months 10 days. The fact of
withdrawal of Rs.30,000/- by the Petitioner /CSE from the SB Account of Smt. Nirmala Devi on 7.3.2001 and
keeping the said amount by CSE until 17.8.2001 with her and got it returned to Branch Manager on 17.8.2001 after a
long period of 5 months 10 days is clearly established by oral and documentary evidence on record. However, during
the Departmental enquiry proceeding, when Enquiry Officer asked charge sheeted employee whether she wants to
submit anything in the matter. In reply CSE stated that as quoted below verbatim:-
“I have been appointed in the bank through compassionate appointment. I have three children out of which one boy
and girl are not settled yet. I have the responsibility to look after them. I have not done any mistake knowingly.
Please forgive me with a big heart if I have done any mistake unknowingly. Please give back my job to me. I
promise that I will not make any mistake further, will work to the satisfaction of the higher authorities and will not
bring any defame to the bank. I have no other assets other than this job. My children and I will become orphans
without this job. So I request you to please forgive me as this is my first mistake and please give back my job to me. I
have been cheated in many ways in my life. I am totally dependent on this job. Myself and my family members will
become orphans without the job. Please forgive me with mercy.”
Thus, from the aforesaid statement of CSE it is clearly established that on 7.3.2001 Petitioner/CSE has withdrawn the
amount of Rs.30,000/- from the bank account of one customer Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi unauthorizedly by means of
forged withdrawal and kept the said amount with her for a period of 5 months 10 days. Thus, Petitioner had admitted
her mistake that is further corroborated by oral and documentary evidence on record. Thus, Petitioner has committed
misconduct of misappropriation of money and rightly held guilty of charges. Further, it is established that Smt.Y.
Nirmaladevi made a complaint to the Branch Manager of Nunna branch, of short of fund inher SB Account on
17.8.2001 and thereafter CSE made good the said amount on 17.8.2001 to the Branch Manager, State Bank of India,
Nunna. Further, CSE has also written an application to Branch Manager with request to handover the said amount to
Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi. Thus, there is ample evidence on record in support of the charges levelled against the CSE
/Petitioner. The plea of Petitioner that ingredients of the charge framed against her is not supported by any evidence
is not acceptable.
17. Petitioner strenuously argued that the complainant herein Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi has already withdrawn her
complaint vide PEx. 8 moved against the CSE/Petitioner and therefore in these circumstances, the charges of
unauthorised withdrawal of the amount of Rs. 30,000/- from the account of Smt. Y.Nirmala Devi the complainant and
retaining the amount with her for 5 months 10 days is not proved.
18. Perused the record of enquiry proceeding. During enquiry, Petitioner’s defence representative has cross
examined PW2 and witness has stated about contents of PEx.8 reproduced as under:-[भाग II—खण् ड 3(ii)] भारत का रािपत्र : अप्रैल 5, 2025, /र्ैत्र 15, 1947 1409
“It is a letter addressed to the Branch Manager, SBI, Name dt. 17/08/01 by Y Nirmala Devi W/O R Prasada Rao.
Ashok Nagar Patamata, Vijayawada. The contents are that she is having SB A/C 12/2556 in our branch. On
07/03/2001 she came to the bank to withdraw and amount of Rs. 30,000/- but she forgot to bring the passbook. Hence,
she requested Smt K Saraswathi, staff of Nunna branch to help her in drawing the amount since she needed the funds
urgent, and she could not bring the passbook within the banking hours as she was staying at a long distance. On
reverse of the voucher, Smt Saraswati witnessed her signature and asked her to wait or one will handover the cash at
her residence. Today when she complained to the bank on 16/08/01 the amount was returned to her account by Smt K
Saraswati. As such complaint may kindly be treated as withdrawn.”
Thus, it is established that account holder Smt. Nirmala Devi has moved complaint dated 16.8.2011 for short of fund
of Rs.30,000/- in her account against Petitioner Smt. Saraswathi Devi and later on she has withdrawn it. But the fact
remains established that Petitioner has withdrawn the amount of Rs.30,000/- from the account of the complainant
Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi on 7.3.2001 unauthorizedly and she kept it with her for a period of 5 months and 10 days
returned the same on 17.8.2001. The Petitioner being posted on the post of Senior Assistant while in the employment
of bank has to maintain integrity and devotion to duty and she is not authorised to withdraw the amount from the
customer’s account unauthorisedly and to retain it with her for 5 months 10 days without any justification. The duty
enjoins upon the Petitioner was either to return the amount to the customer or to inform the Branch Manager on the
same day to get it deposited into the sundry account of the bank. But the conduct of the Petitioner by retaining the
amount of Rs.30,000/- with her after withdrawing from the account of the complainant for 5 moths 10 days cannot be
said to be justified in any manner whatsoever may be. As regards the act of misconduct committed by an employee I
would like to make a reference of decisions of Hon'ble Supreme Court as extracted below:-
The “Misconduct” has been explained by Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case M.M. Malhotra vs. Union of India
others, wherein the Hon'ble Apex Court held in paragraphs 17 to 21 on Misconduct' which are being
reproduced as under:
"17. The range of activities which may amount to acts which are inconsistent with the interest of public service and
not befitting the status, position and dignity of a public servant are so varied that it would be impossible for the
employer to exhaustively enumerate such acts and treat the categories of misconduct as closed. It has, therefore, to be
noted that the word "misconduct" is not capable of precise definition. But at| the same time though incapable of
precise definition, the word "misconduct" on reflection receives its connotation from the context, the delinquency in
performance and its effect on the discipline and the nature of the duty. The act complained of must bear a forbidden
quality or character and its ambit has to be construed with reference to the subject-matter and the context wherein
the term occurs, having regard to the scope of the statute and the public purpose it seeks to serve.
18. In Union of India and Ors. v. Harjeet Singh Sandhu, (2001| 5 SCC 593, in the background of Rule 14 of the Army
Rules, it was held that any wrongful act or any act of delinquency which may or may not involve moral turpitude
would be "misconduct" under Rule 14.
19. In Baldev Singh Gandhi v. State of Punjab and Ors., 2002] 3 SCC 667, it was held that the expression
"misconduct" means unlawful behaviour, misfeasance, wrong conduct, misdemeanour etc.
20. Similarly, in State of Punjab and Ors. v. Ram Singh Ex. Constable, AIR (1992) SC 2188), it was held that the term
"misconduct" may involve moral turpitude. It must be improper or wrong behaviour, unlawful behaviour, wilful in
character, forbidden act, a transgression of established and definite rule of action or code of conduct but not mere
error of judgment, carelessness or negligence in performance of the duty; the act complained of bears forbidden
quality or character.
21. "Misconduct" as stated in Batt's Law of Master and Servant (4th Edition) (at page 63) is "comprised positive acts
and not mere neglects or failures," The definition of the word as given in Ballentine's Law Dictionary (148th Edition)
is "A transgression of some established and definite rule of action, where no discretion is left except what necessity
may demand, it is a violation of definite Law, a forbidden act. It differs from carelessness.
Further, in the case Inspector Premchand vs. Government of NCT of Delhi and others, Hon'ble Apex Court
considered the term "misconduct" and held as under in paragraphs 10 and 11:
"10. In State of Punjab and Ors. vs. Ram Singh Ex. Constable, it was stated:
"Misconduct has been defined in Black's Law Dictionary, Síxth Edition at page 999, thus:
'A transgression of some established and definite rule of action, a forbidden act, a dereliction from duty, unlawful
behaviour, willful in character, improper or wrong behaviour, its synonyms are misdemeanor, misdeed, misbehavior,
delinquency, impropriety, mismanagement, offense, but not negligence or carelessness.' Misconduct in office has been
defined as:1410 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : APRIL 5, 2025/CHAITRA 15, 1947 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
"Any unlawful behaviour by a public officer in relation to the duties of his office, willful in character. Term embraces
acts which the officer holder had no right to perform, acts performed improperly, and failure to act in the face of
affirmative duty to act."
11. In P. Ramanatha Aiyar's Law Lexicon, 3rd edition, at page 3027, the term 'misconduct' has been defined as
under:
"The term 'misconduct' implies, a wrongful intention, and not a mere error of judgment.
Misconduct is not necessarily the same thing as conduct involving moral turpitude.
The word 'misconduct is a relative term, and has to be construed with reference to the subject matter and the context
wherein the term occurs, having regard to the scope of the Act or statute which is being construed. Misconduct
literally means wrong conduct or improper conduct."
From the aforesaid law laid down by Hon'ble Supreme Court it is evident that misconduct generally it means unlawful
behaviour, wrong conduct, misdemeanor etc. The word misconduct has to be construed with the reference to the
subject matter and the context where the term occurs. It is failure to act in the face of an affirmative duty to act and is
not mere negligence or failure or an error of judgement. Thus, in the instant matter, the conduct of CSE can not be
termed as negligence or failure or any error of judgement. But the record clearly shows that act of CSE Petitioner of
misappropriation of money of Rs.30000/- after withdrawal of it from the account of customer by forged withdrawal
for a considerable period of 5 months 10 days and in furtherance of that misconduct Petitioner also made a forged
entry in order to correct monthly balance in the account of customer as well as in ledger entries goes to show the
malafide act committed under definition of ‘Misconduct’.
19. As regards appreciation of evidence in the departmental proceeding, relevant decisions of Hon'ble Supreme
Court are being discussed below:-
In the case of State of Haryana versus Rattan Singh 1977 ACC page 491 while dealing with the standard of proof/
Evidence applicable in domestic enquiry Hon'ble Supreme Court have held:-
4. It is well settled that in a domestic enquiry the strict and sophisticated rules of evidence under the Indian Evidence
Act may not apply. Ail materials which are logically probative for a prudent mind are permissible. There is no allergy
to hearsay evidence provided it has reasonable nexus and credibility. It is true that departmental authorities and
administrative tribunals must be careful in evaluating such material and should not glibly swallow what is strictly
speaking not relevant under the Indian Evidence Act. For this proposition it is not necessary to cite decisions nor text
books, although we have been taken through case law and other authorities by counsel on both sides. The essence of a
judicial approach is objectivity, exclusion of extraneous materials or considerations and observance of rules of
natural justice. Of course, fairplay is the basis and if perversity or arbitrariness, bias or surrender of independence of
judgment vitiate the conclusions reached, such finding,even though of a domestic tribunal, cannot be held good.
However, the courts below mis-directed themselves, perhaps, in insisting that passengers who had come in and gone
out should be chased and brought before the tribunal before a valid finding could be recorded. The 'residuum' rule to
which counsel for the respondent referred, based upon certain passengers from American jurisprudence does not go
to that extent nor does the passage from Halsbury insist on such rigid requirement. The simple point is, was there
some evidence or was there no evidence not in the sense of the technical rules governing regular court proceedings
but in a fair common-sense way as men of understanding and wordly wisdom will accept. Viewed in this way,
sufficiency of evidence in proof of the finding by a domestic tribunal is beyond scrutiny. Absence of any evidence in
support of a ending is certainty available for the court to look into because it amounts to an error of law apparent on
the record. We find, in this case, that the evidence of Chamanlal, Inspector of the flying squad, is some evidence
which has elevance to the charge leveled against the respondent. Therefore, we are unable to hold that the order is
invalid on that ground.
In the case of State of Rajasthan & Ors. Vs. Heem Singh, civil Appeal No.3340/2020, dated 29.10.2021, Hon’ble
Apex Court have held:
Disciplinary enquiries have to abide by the rules of natural justice. But they are not governed by strict rules of
evidence which apply to judicial proceedings. The standard of proof is hence not the strict standard which governs a
criminal trial, of proof be yond reasonable doubt, but a civil standard governed by a preponderance of probabilities.
Within the rule of preponderance, there are varying approaches based on context and subject. The first end of the
spectrum is founded on deference and autonomy -deference to the position of the disciplinary authority as a fact
finding authority and autonomy of the employer in maintaining discipline and efficiency of the service. At the other
end of the spectrum is the principle that the court has the jurisdiction to interfere when the findings in the enquiry are
based on no evidence or when they suffer from perversity.
To determine whether the finding in a disciplinary enquiry is based on some evidence an initial or threshold level of
scrutiny is undertaken. That is to satisfy the conscience of the court that there is some evidence to support the charge
of misconduct and to guard against perversity. But this does not allow the court to re-appreciate evidentiary findings[भाग II—खण् ड 3(ii)] भारत का रािपत्र : अप्रैल 5, 2025, /र्ैत्र 15, 1947 1411
in a disciplinary enquiry or to substitute a view which appears to the judge to be more appropriate. To do so would
offend the first principle which has been outlined above. The ultimate guide is the exercise of robust common sense
without which the judges' craft is in vain.”
In Moni Shankar v. Union of India and Anr. [(2008) 3 SCC 484], this Court held:
“17. The departmental proceeding is a quasi judicial one. Although the provisions of the Evidence Act are not
applicable in the said proceeding, principles of natural justice are required to be complied with. The Court exercising
power of judicial review are entitled to consider as to whether while inferring commission of misconduct on the part
of a delinquent officer relevant piece of evidence has been taken into consideration and irrelevant facts have been
excluded therefrom. Inference on facts must be based on evidence which meet the requirements of legal principles.
The Tribunal was, thus, entitled to arrive at its own conclusion on the premise that the evidence adduced by the
department, even if it is taken on its face value to be correct in its entirety, meet the requirements of burden of proof,
namely -
preponderance of probability. If on such evidences, the test of the doctrine of proportionality has not been satisfied,
the Tribunal was within its domain to interfere. We must place on record that the doctrine of unreasonableness is
giving way to the doctrine of proportionality."
Thus, in view of the principle laid down by the Hon’ble Apex Court in the above stated cases, in the instant matter
there is ample documentary and oral evidence against the CSE to prove the charges against her that on 7.3.2001 she
has withdrawn the amount of Rs.30,000/- unauthorizedly with forged withdrawal form from the SB account of one
customer Smt. Y. Nirmala Devi and misappropriated the same till she made complaint on 16.8.2001 and CSE made
good that amount to the Branch Manager after a period of 5 months 10 days. It is settled law that even the
misappropriation of property of others for a short period, amounts to misconduct for which the delinquent is liable
for disciplinary action. In the instant matter it is not a case of no evidence and there is ample documentary and oral
evidence against delinquent on record. Hence, the plea of workman that dismissal order suffer from perversity is not
tenable.
20. Therefore, on the basis of oral and documentary evidence as well as the admission of the CSE/Petitioner
during the enquiry that she had unauthorizedly withdrawn an amount of Rs.30,000/- from the bank account of Smt.
Y. Nirmala Devi and retained it for 5 months 10 days unauthorizedly in violation of rules/regulations of Bank,
thereby Petitioner has committed gross misconduct hence she has been awarded the penalty of dismissal from
service. As the charges has been proved against the delinquent employee in the enquiry, no employer would suffer or
allow or tolerate such behaviour of his employee and it has every right to initiate domestic enquiry against such
employee for gross misconduct. Thus, the charges being serious in nature therefore the order of dismissal passed
against the Petitioner cannot be faulted with nor it can be said in any way disproportionate to the gravity of the
charges. In other words, punishment of dismissal is proportionate with the gravity of the charges and deserves to be
upheld.
21. Further, workman has taken the plea that there has been no loss to bank or to complainant except for some
inconvenience of one day for which she has explained the reason. It is settled law that in the matter of disciplinary
proceeding, question of loss is immaterial. In such matters, it is to be seen whether the conduct of delinquent
employee was in contravention of rules/regulations, practice of employment, that amounts to misconduct and same
attracts the disciplinary proceeding against employee. Hence, the facts remain that Petitioner has misappropriated
the amount of customer of Rs.30000/- after withdrawing it from account by forged withdrawal and retained it for a
considerable period of 5 months 10 days. The question of misconduct of delinquent employee has to be considered
here, question of loss to any party is immaterial for disciplinary proceedings against employee.
22. As regards the jurisdiction of Tribunal to interfere in the decision of the disciplinary authority, regarding
quantum of punishment is concerned, Hon'ble Supreme Court have held that Courts will not act as an Appellate Court
and reassess the evidence held in domestic enquiry nor interfere with the punishment.
In this context, reference of decision of Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of State of Bikaner & Jaipur Vs. Nemi
Chand Nalwaya in Civil Appeal No.5861/2007 AIR 2011 SC 1931 dated 1.3.2001 is relevant wherein the
Hon’ble Apex Court have held:-
“6. It is now well settled that the courts will not act as an appellate court and reassess the evidence led in the domestic
Enquiry, nor interfere on the ground that another view is possible on the material on record. If the Enquiry has been fairly and
properly held and the findings are based on evidence, the question of adequacy of the evidence or the reliable nature of the
evidence will not be grounds for interfering with the findings in departmental enquiries. Therefore, courts will not interfere with
findings of fact recorded in departmental enquiries, except where such findings are based on no evidence or where they are
clearly perverse. The test to find out perversity is to see whether a tribunal acting reasonably could have arrived at such
conclusion or finding, on the material on record. Courts will however interfere with the findings in disciplinary matters, if
principles of natural justice or statutory regulations have been violated or if the order is found to be arbitrary, capricious, mala
fide or based on extraneous considerations.”1412 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : APRIL 5, 2025/CHAITRA 15, 1947 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
Further, in Vishwamohan Vs. Union of India, (1998) 4 SCC 310, Hon'ble Supreme Court have held:-
"trust is the corner stone of Banking business, absolute devotion, diligence, integrity and honesty needs to be
preserved by every bank employee. If it is not observed, the confidence of the public/ depositors would be impaired".
In Tarachand Viyas Vs. Chairman, Disciplinary Authority reported in (1997) 4 SCC 565, where in the Hon’ble
Apex Court have held:-
"that the Bank employees are required to exercise higher degrees of honesty and integrity. They deal with the money
of depositors and customers. As such they are required to take all possible steps to protect the interest of the Bank
and to discharge their duties with utmost integrity, honesty and devotion and to do nothing which is unbecoming of a
Bank employee/Officer. it is no defence to say that there is no loss or profit resulted in the case. It is pertinent to state
that owing to fraudulent acts of the petitioner, the bank is put to reputation loss and loss of public money and there
are no extenuating circumstances warranting for extending sympathy to consider for any leniency in the natter".
Thus, in view of the above the plea of the Petitioner that the respondent management has imposed disproportionate
punishment which is shockingly disproportionate to one’s conscious is not tenable. In the instant matter, the
Departmental Enquiry has been conducted against the charge sheeted employee fairly and properly and findings are
based on relevant evidence. The question of adequacy of evidence and the reliable nature of evidence will not be
ground for interfering with the finding in Departmental Enquiries. Therefore, plea of the Petitioner in view of the
above is not tenable. As regards nature of gravity of the misconduct committed by Petitioner is concerned, in this
context I would like to make reference of few decisions of the Hon'ble Supreme Court, which are discussed as
under:-
In the case of Chairman and Managing Director, United Commercial Bank vs. PC Kakkar AIR 2003 SC page
3571, Hon'ble Supreme Court of India have held,
“Bank officer is required to exercise higher standards of honesty and integrity -Defence that there was no loss of
profit resulting – not available when delinquent employee acted without authority- High Court setting aside as
shockingly disproportionate without indicating reasons – Amounts to denial of justice- fact that co-delinquent is
given lesser punishment – can also be no ground for interference.”
In JP Jain Vs. Management of State Bank of India 1982 AIR page 673,
“ the facts of the case are that the Appellant was working as cashier in the Meerut State branch of State Bank of
India, the complainant, came to bank to receive his pass book. On receipt of pass book accountholder complained
that he had withdrawn only Rs.500/- but there is entry of Rs.1500/- as shown in the passbook. The complainant
reported matter to the Supervisor R K Gupta, and necessary documents pertaining to such withdrawal were examined
and it was found that the complainant has given a letter of authority to the Appellant workman and authorizing to
withdraw the amount Rs.500/-from his account. The said authority letter was for withdrawal of Rs.500/-, but,
workman acting as cashier manipulated figure in the letter from Rs.500/- to Rs.1500/- and withdrawn the amount
retained Rs.1000/- with him.
In that case enquiry was held and the casual Appellant was dismissed from the job. In the case the alleged
misconduct of the Appellant to produce forged documents and withdrew Rs.1500/- instead Rs.500/- and Rs.1000/- in
excess of the amount which he was not authorized misappropriated it. In that case Appellant had submitted his
confession letter and on the basis of the confession letter and substantial evidence he was terminated from the service
and the Hon’ble Apex Court upheld the termination of the Appellant.”
(vii). In the case of Darshan Singh Vs. Canara Bank CWP No.10458/ 2003 D.O.D. 6.4.2017 High Court
held:
“the Court has rightly observed that oral evidence contrary to documentary evidence and entries has not to be
believed this was the case defendant for proof of misconduct on documentary evidence and entries in the Saving Bank
Account pass book and ledger folios etc.. The workman admitted that these entries made by him saying that it was
made under bonafide mistake. Such act have serious propensities which when made public a bank might loss its
reputation and confidence in investing public, not continue employment. It was the case of misappropriation. Even if
it is classified as temporary misappropriation or temporary embezzlement both are bad of law. Workman therefore,
cannot be absolved simply, by saying that entries were some bonafide mistake. In the opinion of Labour Court no
lenience can be shown to the workman. Once the misconduct is proved in the enquiry conducted by employer,
punishment imposed cannot be interfered with by the Tribunal except in cases where the punishment is so harsh as to
suggest victimization.”
Further, in the case of Karnataka Bank Ltd., Vs. A.L. Mohan Rao, Civil Appeal No.1733 of 2004, date of
decision 26.10.2005 Hon'ble Supreme Court has upheld punishment of dismissal of bank employee of gross
misconduct of similar nature as in the instant matter.[भाग II—खण् ड 3(ii)] भारत का रािपत्र : अप्रैल 5, 2025, /र्ैत्र 15, 1947 1413
23. The facts of the case are that, Respondent was working as an attendar at the Kudregundi branch of appellant
bank and he was charge sheeted for gross misconduct in as much as he has colluded with one of the Branch Managers
and enabled grant of a fictitious loan in the name of one Sri Ramakrishna, the real beneficiary being a person named
B. Raghava. During enquiry, the Respondent admitted that he prepared the loan agreement. He admitted that he had
made the relevant entries in the Ledger and credit and debit slips and also prepared DP note and the other documents
required for the purpose of loan. It was admitted that he had prepared these documents knowing that he had no
authority to make any entries in the books/ledgers. In that case Hon'ble Supreme Court have held:-
“6. In our view, a gross misconduct of this nature does merit termination. We fail to see what other type of
misconduct would merit termination. It is not for the courts to interfere in cases of gross misconduct of this nature
with the decision of the disciplinary authority so long as the inquiry has been fair and proper and misconduct proved.
In such matters, it is for the disciplinary authority to decide what is the fit punishment. In any case on such a
misconduct, it could never have been said that termination of service is not the appropriate punishment.”
Therefore, in view of the fore gone discussion and law laid down by the Hon’ble Apex Court, as discussed in
preceding paragraphs, the punishment of dismissal imposed upon the Petitioner for committing gross misconduct of
misappropriation of amount of customers by withdrawing from SB account unauthorizedly, is proportionate with the
gravity of the charges and it deserves to be upheld. Petition is devoid of merit and liable to be dismissed.
Thus, Point No.II is decided accordingly.
24. Point No.III: In view of the finding given at Points No. I & II, the Petitioner is not entitled to get any
relief and this petition is found to be baseless, hence, liable to be dismissed the action of Respondent Bank
Management in dismissing the service of CSE is held justified.
Therefore, Point No.III is decided accordingly.
AWARD
The action of the management of State Bank of India, Vijayawada in dismissing the services of Smt. K.
Saraswathi, Ex-Clerk is held legal and justified. The workman is not entitled to any relief as prayed for. Reference
is answered accordingly.
Award is passed accordingly. Transmit.

Present:- Ms. Rana Ghuman, AR for applicant.

Award : 18.02.2025
Central Government vide Notification No.L-12012/17/2014 (IR(B-II)) Dated 04.04.2014, under clause (d)
of sub-section (1) and sub-section (2A) of Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (hereinafter called the ID
Act), has referred the following Industrial dispute for adjudication to this Tribunal:-1426 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : APRIL 5, 2025/CHAITRA 15, 1947 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
“Whether action of termination of service o Sh. Ashok Kumar Sharma w.e.f. 02.09.2013 by the
management of Punjab national Bank, Jalandhar is legal, just and valid? What relief the workman is
entitled to and from which date?”
1. Brief facts of the case as stated by the applicant are that the he served w.e.f. 01.01.2005 to 01.09.2013 with
the management as Cheque Collector and used to collect and deliver the daily dak and cheques in the branch offices
as directed by the management. On 02.09.2013, the applicant reported for duty as usual but denied to duty and was
told verbally that in his place, management had engaged new hand and his services are not required henceforth
without giving him in writing. The management had recommended time and again to continue the applicant in service
along with the others to the Head office as according to the branch office, his services were required and his work and
conduct was quite satisfactory and there was no complaint against the work and conduct of the applicant. The
applicant was drawing Rs.15000/- per month as wages on the date of his termination. The salary was paid to the
applicant in his bank account by the management. Neither charge-sheet was served, nor any show cause notice and
inquiry was held against the applicant, which is against the provisions of natural justice. The management had
retained juniors to the applicant in service and who are continuing in service in violation of Section 25-G of the ID
Act. The applicant had rendered more than 240 days in each completed year of service proceeding the date of
termination. No retrenchment compensation was paid to the applicant. It is maintained that termination is illegal, void
and bad in law and it is prayed that he be reinstated in service with full back wages and other consequential benefits.
2. Notice of the claim petition was also given to the management, who filed reply thereof, maintaining therein
that the present reference is without jurisdiction on the ground that the present matter does not all fall within the ambit
of Section 2-A of the ID Act. It is denied that the applicant was serving w.e.f. 24.09.1992 till 30.09.2013 as cheque
collector with the management. The services of the applicant were utilized purely on need basis for providing courier
service at Regional Processing Centre, Jalandhar (hereinafter called as RPC), at a consolidated mutually agreed
amount of Rs.7133/-, which was increased later in view of the price rise. The arrangement was made locally by the
incumbent of RPC. The persons providing the courier services were being paid auto rickshaw charges for the purpose.
Different persons were providing services as courier during the past at agreed rates. No records of such persons have
been maintained by the management. The applicant was told around the middle of August by the incumbent of the
RPC to bring auto rickshaw as was agreed by him, the applicant showed his inability to do so. Accordingly, his
contract was not renewed further. Thus it was the voluntary decision of the applicant to discontinue the arrangement.
It is also submitted that the non renewal of the contract does not amount to retrenchment. There was no question of
recommending the name of applicant to the head office or to any other office. It was upto the incumbent of RPC to
make arrangement for collection of cheques from branch and return of the same with whosoever was prepared to
render the service at the agreed rates. There was no need of serving charge-sheet, show cause notice or conducting
inquiry against the applicant or paying him retrenchment compensation, earned leave, medical leave or deduction of
EPF and there was no question of violation of Section 25-G of the ID Act as the applicant was not in the employment
of the management and no employer-employee relationship ever existed between respondent and management. It is
prayed that the reference be dismissed with cost.
Evidence of the parties:-
3. In order to prove case, applicant filed his affidavit WW1 along with documents W1 (account statement) and
W2 (ID card) and closed his evidence on 03.07.2019. Thereafter, respondent have examined Sh. Vijay Kumar Asija,
Senior Manager, Circle Office, Jalandhar as MW1, who tendered her affidavit as MW1/A and thereafter, ld. counsel
for management closed evidence on 09.09.2019 on behalf of management and the matter was fixed for arguments.
Submissions of Applicants:
4. While arguing the case, ld. counsel for the applicant contended that applicant was working as cheque
collector since 01.01.2005 till 01.09.2013. He reported on 02.09.2013, but was told verbally not to continue with the
management and at that time, he was drawing salary of Rs.15000/- per month, which was paid in his bank account.
He also contended that this fact has been even admitted by the respondent. It is the case of the respondent that the
contractor of applicant was not renewed as he has not brought auto rickshaw, in which he was doing courier work.
Applicant has also placed on record passbook Ex.W1 and ID card Ex.W2, which proves that he was in the service of
management and was retrenched without retrenchment of compensation. Ld. counsel for applicant placed on record
written arguments.
Submissions of Respondents:
5. On the other hand. ld. counsel for respondent contended that in this case, workman was serving w.e.f.
01.01.2005 as cheque collector with the bank management and he used to collect and deliver the daily dak till
01.09.2013. His services were utilized purely on need basis and initially he was paid Rs.7133/- per month, which was
increased from time to time. When he was asked to bring auto rickshaw, for which payment was being made to the
applicant, applicant showed his inability, accordingly, his contract was not renewed, thus it was the voluntary decision
of the applicant to discontinue his contract. Hence, the case of the applicant does not fall under Section 2A of the ID
Act. Management has also placed on record written arguments prepared by ld. counsel for management.[भाग II—खण् ड 3(ii)] भारत का रािपत्र : अप्रैल 5, 2025, /र्ैत्र 15, 1947 1427
6. I have given due consideration to the written arguments filed on behalf of both the parties.
Findings:
7. First this Tribunal is to decide is whether the applicant comes within the definition of "workman" as is
defined in Section 2(S) of the Act. It is mentioned here that applicant was in service of bank w.e.f. 01.01.2005 and
continuously worked till 01.09.2013 as cheque collector. In plain words the claimant was performing his duties as
labourer/unskilled worker. He was not in supervisory or administrative post requiring him to perform only
administrative post requiring him to perform only administrative duties. While interpreting Section 2(S) Hon'ble
Supreme Court in the case of Devinder Singh V/s Municipal Council, Sanaur AlR 2011 Supreme Court 2532, has
observed as follows:-
"The source of employment, the quantum of recruitment, the terms and conditions of employment/contract of service,
the quantum of wages/ pay and mode of payment are not at all relevant for deciding whether or not a person is a
workman within the meaning of Section 2(s) of Act. The definition of workman also does not make any distinction
between full time and part time employee or a person appointed on contract basis. There is nothing in the plain
language of Section 2(s) from which it can be inferred that only person employed on regular basis or a person
employed for doing whole time job is a workman and the one employed on temporary, part time or contract basis on
fixed wages or as a causal employee or for doing duty for fixed hours is not a workman.”
8. Thus, Hon'ble Supreme Court has clarified that the definition of workman also does not make any distinction
between full time or part time or a person appointed on contract basis. There is nothing in employee plain language of
Section 2(S) from which it can be infer that only person employed on regular basis or a person employed for doing
whole time job is a workman and the one employed temporary, part time or contract basis on fixed wages or as a
casual employee or for doing duty for fixed hours is not a workman. In view of the ratio of law enunciated in the
above ruling, in my considered opinion, the claimant herein admittedly falls within the definition of 'workman' under
Section 2(S) of the Act.
9. The payment of salary by the management is admitted by the respondent in its written statement as well as in
the affidavit of filed by Sh. Vijay Kumar Asija, Senior Manager, Circle Office, Jalandhar, wherein he categorically
stated that workman worked on different dates as mentioned in his affidavit and was paid initially Rs. 7133/- per
month, which was increased from time to time. As per applicant, he was retrenched from service on 01.09.2013. If we
take one year prior to 01.09.2013 as stated by the respondent, then he had completed 240 days in the preceding year
as per written statement filed by respondent in this case.
10. Admittedly, the respondent is an industry and there was non- compliance of Section 25-F of the Act. The
workman has already been able to prove that he worked continuously for a period of 240 days prior to his termination
of his services by respondent on 01.09.2013 as he was receiving regular wages from 2005 till 2013 is proven as per
statement of workman WW1. It is added here that the applicant worked as cheque collector w.e.f. 01.01.2005.
Admittedly, in this case, applicant was not paid retrenchment compensation as per Section 25F of the ID Act. As per
own case of the respondent, the contract of workman was not renewed. The said argument of the ld. counsel for the
respondent is not having any force as respondent has failed to produce on record any document showing that
workman was engaged on the basis of some contract. Attracting his retrenchment on the basis of completion of
contract as per Section 2(oo) (bb) of the ID Act.
11. Admittedly, there is violation of Section 25-F of the Act and in view of the judgment of Hon'ble Apex Court
in Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd.Vs Man Singh,_2012(1)_SCT 641, it is not necessary that relief of reinstatement has
to be given as a matter of right. Reliance can also be placed upon Jasbir Singh Vs Haryana State Agriculture
Marketing Board, 2009(3) SCT 790, under which it has been held that in the legal position and the Court had recent
past, there had been a shift in consistently taken the view that relief by way of reinstatement with back wages is not
automatic and may he wholly inappropriate in a given fact situation, even though termination Of an employee was in
contravention of the prescribed procedure. Compensation instead of reinstatement was held to be the prudent relief to
meet the ends of justice. Moreover, Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in case titled as District Development Officer &
Anr. V/s Satish Kantilal Amrelia, Civil Appeal Nos. 19857-19858 of 2017; decided on 28 November , 2017 has held
as follow:
"that the reasons for denying the relief of reinstatement in such cases are obvious, It is trite law that when the
termination is found to be illegal because of non-payment of retrenchment compensation and notice pay as
mandatorily required under Section 25-F of the Industrial Disputes Act, even after reinstatement, it is always
open to the management to terminate the services of that employee by paying him the retrenchment
compensation. Since such a workman was working on daily-wage basis and even after he is reinstated, he has
no right to seek regularization. Thus he cannot claim regularization and he has no right to continue even as
daily-wage worker, no useful purpose is going to be served in reinstatement such a workman and he can be
given monetary compensation by the Court itself inasmuch as if he is terminated again after reinstatement, he
would receive monetary compensation only in the form of retrenchment compensation and notice pay. In such a
situation, giving the relief of reinstatement, that too after a long gap, would not serve any purpose".1428 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : APRIL 5, 2025/CHAITRA 15, 1947 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
In view of above discussed above workman entitled for compensation as he was working on temporary basis
intermittently.
12. Learned counsel for the workman has also argued that for rendering one year service workman should be
granted Rs.1 lac per year and since the workman has worked for about 8 years and therefore compensation of Rs.8 lac
be awarded to the workman in view of the various judgments of Hon'ble Supreme Court and Hon'ble High Courts.
13. It is added here that in the present case workman has intermittently worked for about 8 years as cheque
collector as is itself stated by the respondent and keeping in view the above discussed circumstances and case law
titled as Hemant Babruvahan Parchake versus Social Welfare Officer, Somalwar Bhavan, Mount Road, Sadar,
Nagpur and others 201 (4) AIR BomR 781, wherein for 18 months, a sum of Rs.25,000/- was granted as
compensation, workman is granted Rs. 1,33,000/- as compensation.
14. Let copy of this award be sent to the Appropriate Government as required under Section 17 of the Act for
publication.

2. Notice of the claim petition was also given to the management, who filed reply thereof, maintaining therein

doing the work of sweeper during the tenure of applicant. He further contended that the workman had completed 240
days of service in the preceding year prior to her retrenchment and requested that the workman is entitled for

Submissions of Respondents:
5. On the other hand. ld. counsel for respondent contended that the applicant was never appointed by the
management as part time sweeper. The applicant was never issued any appointment letter by the management. The
applicant was engaged for menial work as per requirement of the office and her wages were paid as per the work done
by her on day to day basis. The services of the applicant were never dismissed, terminated or retrenched by the
management as the applicant was never employed by the respondent on regular basis and no appointment letter was

year. The branch manager has no power or authority to appoint any person. The bank has its own rules and
regulations of appointment in the bank. No junior to the workman has been retained by the management. The
workman does not fall within the definition of the workman as defined under the ID Act. It is prayed that the claim
may be dismissed. Management has also placed on record written arguments prepared by ld. counsel for management.
6. I have given due consideration to the written arguments filed on behalf of both the parties.
Findings:
7. First this Tribunal is to decide is whether the applicant comes within the definition of "workman" as is
defined in Section 2(S) of the Act. It is mentioned here that applicant was in service of bank w.e.f. 05.10.2014 and
continuously worked till 16.11.2017 as sweeper. This fact has been admitted by Mr. Mohit Dalak (Deputy Manager)
MW1 in his cross examination, wherein, he has stated that workman had worked from 05.10.2014 to 16.11.2017
continuously. Nobody was doing the work of sweeping during the tenure of applicant, who was doing the work of
sweeping. However, no appointment letter was issued to any sweeper as per the record. In plain words the claimant
was performing her duties as labourer/unskilled worker. She was not in supervisory or administrative post requiring
him to perform only administrative post requiring her to perform only administrative duties. While interpreting
Section 2(S) Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Devinder Singh V/s Municipal Council, Sanaur AlR 2011
Supreme Court 2532, has observed as follows:-1430 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : APRIL 5, 2025/CHAITRA 15, 1947 [PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
"The source of employment, the quantum of recruitment, the terms and conditions of employment/contract of
service, the quantum of wages/ pay and mode of payment are not at all relevant for deciding whether or not a
person is a workman within the meaning of Section 2(s) of Act. The definition of workman also does not make
any distinction between full time and part time employee or a person appointed on contract basis. There is
nothing in the plain language of Section 2(s) from which it can be inferred that only person employed on
regular basis or a person employed for doing whole time job is a workman and the one employed on temporary,
part time or contract basis on fixed wages or as a causal employee or for doing duty for fixed hours is not a
workman.”
8. Thus, Hon'ble Supreme Court has clarified that the definition of workman also does not make any distinction
between full time or part time or a person appointed on contract basis. There is nothing in employee plain language of
Section 2(S) from which it can be infer that only person employed on regular basis or a person employed for doing
whole time job is a workman and the one employed temporary, part time or contract basis on fixed wages or as a
casual employee or for doing duty for fixed hours is not a workman. In view of the ratio of law enunciated in the
above ruling, in my considered opinion, the claimant herein admittedly falls within the definition of 'workman' under
Section 2(S) of the Act.
9. Workman has claimed that at the time of her removal, she was getting Rs.3900/- per month and she had
worked 240 days prior to her termination. Workman in her cross examination has admitted that bank did not pay
monthly salary instead payment was made on the basis of the working days. Workman has also placed on record
vouchers for the period during which the applicant served with the bank, however, these vouchers were not get
exhibited, but these vouchers has been relied upon by the workman, which shows that she was paid on the basis of the
working days for the services rendered by her. However, she had completed 240 days prior to her termination as per
own admission of Mr. Mohit Dalak, MW1. From the cross examination of Mr. Mohit Dalak, MW1, it emerges that
workman had worked continuously from 05.10.2014 to 14.11.2017. This witness had also admitted that no
compensation and notice was given to the workman. He has also stated that in place of Maya Devi, Mr. Manoj Kumar
was engaged through contractor. Thus it is clear that there was violation of Section 25F and 25G of the ID Act.
10. Admittedly, the respondent is an industry and there was non- compliance of Section 25-F of the Act. The
workman has already been able to prove that she worked continuously for a period of 240 days prior to her
termination of her services by respondent on 16.11.2017. It is proved as per statement of Mr. Mohit Dalak, MW1. It is
added here that the applicant worked as sweeper w.e.f. 05.10.2014 till 16.11.2017 intermittently. Admittedly, in this
case, applicant was not paid retrenchment compensation as per Section 25F of the ID Act and in place of her, Mr.
Manoj Kumar was engaged in place of applicant as sweeper. Thus, there was violation of Section 25F and 25G of the
ID Act.
11. Admittedly, there is violation of Section 25-F of the Act and in view of the judgment of Hon'ble Apex Court
in Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd.Vs Man Singh, 2012(1) SCT 641, it is not necessary that relief of reinstatement has to
be given as a matter of right. Reliance can also be placed upon Jasbir Singh Vs Haryana State Agriculture
Marketing Board, 2009(3) SCT 790, under which it has been held that in the legal position and the Court had recent
past, there had been a shift in consistently taken the view that relief by way of reinstatement with back wages is not
automatic and may she wholly inappropriate in a given fact situation, even though termination of an employee was in
contravention of the prescribed procedure. Compensation instead of reinstatement was held to be the prudent relief to
meet the ends of justice. Moreover, Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in case titled as District Development Officer &
Anr. V/s Satish Kantilal Amrelia, Civil Appeal Nos. 19857-19858 of 2017; decided on 28 November , 2017 has held
as follow:
"that the reasons for denying the relief of reinstatement in such cases are obvious, It is trite law that when
the termination is found to be illegal because of non-payment of retrenchment compensation and notice pay
as mandatorily required under Section 25-F of the Industrial Disputes Act, even after reinstatement, it is
always open to the management to terminate the services of that employee by paying him the retrenchment
compensation. Since such a workman was working on daily-wage basis and even after he is reinstated, he
has no right to seek regularization. Thus he cannot claim regularization and he has no right to continue
even as daily-wage worker, no useful purpose is going to be served in reinstatement such a workman and he
can be given monetary compensation by the Court itself inasmuch as if he is terminated again after
reinstatement, he would receive monetary compensation only in the form of retrenchment compensation and
notice pay. In such a situation, giving the relief of reinstatement, that too after a long gap, would not serve
any purpose".
In view of above discussed above workman entitled for compensation as she was working on temporary
basis intermittently.
12. Learned counsel for the workman has also argued that for rendering one year service workman should be
granted Rs.1 lac per year and since the workman has worked for about 3 years and therefore compensation of Rs. 3
lac be awarded to the workman in view of the various judgments of Hon'ble Supreme Court and Hon'ble High Courts.
To support this view, ld. counsel for applicant relied upon the judgment dated 11.12.2013 passed in Civil Appeal[भाग II—खण् ड 3(ii)] भारत का रािपत्र : अप्रैल 5, 2025, /र्ैत्र 15, 1947 1431
No. 10957 of 2013 titled as B.S.N.L. Versus Bhurumal. However, the case law cited by the ld. counsel for appellant
is not applicable as the workman in said case was lineman and has claimed that he has worked for 15 years of service,
but was able to prove service of 3 years, and therefore was gratned Rs.3 Lakh as compensation keeping in view that
he was rendering technical service of lineman. However, in the present case, the workman was working intermittently

AWARD
1. In the present case, a reference was received from the appropriate Government vide letter no. ND-25/I-
76/2023-IR dated 01.12.2023 under Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 for adjudication of a
dispute, terms of which are as under:
“Whether the demand of contract workmen Sh. Santosh Kumar S/o Shri Rajinder Prasad,
AC Operator and Shri Samshad S/o MD Jamil, Electrician through All India CPWD Karamchari
Union, for regularization of their services in the establishment of CPWD is legal and/or justified?
And if so, to what relief the workmen concerned are entitled and what directions are necessary in this
respect?”
2. In the reference order, the appropriate Government directed the parties raising the dispute to file statement of
claim, complete with relevant documents, list of reliance and witnesses with this Tribunal within 15 days of receipt of
the reference order and to forward a copy of such statement of claim to the opposite parties involved in the dispute.
Despite directions so given, Claimant/ union opted not to file the claim statement with the Tribunal.
3. On receipt of the above reference, notice was sent to the workman as well as the managements. Neither the postal
article sent to the claimant, referred above, was received back nor was it observed by the Tribunal that postal services
remained unserved in the period, referred above. Therefore, every presumption lies in favor of the fact that the above
notice was served upon the claimant. Despite service of the notice, claimant opted to abstain away from the
proceedings. No claim statement was filed on his behalf on all four dates of hearing. Thus, it is clear that the
workman is not interested in adjudication of the reference on merits.
In light of the fact that the claimant has not been appearing to pursue his claim, his claim has resulted in No
Dispute Award. Award is passed accordingly. A copy of this award is sent to appropriate government for notification
under section 17 of the I.D. Act. File is consigned to record room.
