R. M. S. KHANDEPARKAR, J.: - Heard. The appellants challenge the order dated 29 - 11 - 2001 passed by the learned single Judge in Writ Petition No. 3429 of 1995. By the impugned order the learned single Judge has dismissed the writ petition filed by the appellant against the order dated 28 - 9 - 1994 of the Industrial Court, Pune. By the said order, the Industrial Court had allowed the complaint filed by the respondent under Item No. 6 of Schedule - IV of the Maharashtra Recognition of Trade Unions and Prevention of Unfair Labour Practices Act, 1971, hereinafter called as "the said Act" and had directed the appellants to provide the benefits of permanency to the respondent with effect from 28 - 9 - 1987.

2. It was the grievance of the respondent, along with other employees of the appellants, that he was appointed as daily wage workman during the period from 1983 to 1986 as a Baller in the printing press of the appellant and that in spite of he having completed the period of continuous 240 days in service in the post, which was vacant and permanent post, he was continued as a temporary employee without granting the benefits of permanency and therefore
