Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, S.25F--Reinstatement--Back wages--Appellant was engaged as a daily wager --Retrenchment after about 10 months of services--Labour Court directed reinstatement with continuity of service and full back wage from the date of demand notice--Award of Labour Court set aside by High Court--Supreme Court set aside the order of High Court--High Court erred in not awarding compensation to the appellant while upsetting the award of reinstatement and back wages--It is not required that relief of full back wages should necessarily be granted on reinstatement--Compensation instead of reinstatement sufficient to meet the ends of justice--Compensation of Rs.50,000/- awarded.
