Writ Petition No. 2588 of 1998, which upheld and modified an Award of the Industrial Tribunal passed on 24.02.1997 in Adjudication Case No. 139 of 1992. The respondent was appointed as a temporary Tube-well Operator with effect from 06.03.1974 by the Assistant Director of Fisheries Department, Meerut (U.P).
