JUDGMENT :
(Piyush Agrawal, J.) :
Heard Mr. Diptiman Singh for the petitioner and Mr. Shyam Narain for respondent No. 3.
2. The present writ petition has been filed for assailing the award dated 13.6.2005 passed by respondent No. 3 by which the petitioner was directed to reinstate respondent No. 3 in service for the next crushing season.
