industrial dispute before the Tribunal on the ground that the services of the respondent-workman were terminated in violation of Section 25F of the Act of 1947 (for short 'the Act of 1947'). The petitioner submitted reply to the claim filed by the workman and submitted that the services of the workman were terminated on completion of the project, hence, the services of the workman were not required and, accordingly, a decision was taken to discontinue his services. On the basis of the submissions of the parties and the evidence on record, a finding of fact has been recorded by the Tribunal that the scheme and project was continuing but without following the mandate contained under Section 25F of the Act of 1947 the services of the workman were terminated. After appreciating the evidence available on the record, the claim petition filed by the workman was allowed and it was held by the Tribunal that the termination order of the workman was illegal and invalid and, accordingly, the same ;was quashed and set aside and a direction was issued to the petitioner to reinstate back the workman in service and further direction has been issued to grant him 30°/o back wages. Feeling aggrieved by the impugned award dated 31.05.1999, instant petition has been filed.
