JUDGMENT
The 2nd respondent was a workman at the institution/jewellery represented by the petitioner herein. The 2nd respondent complained that he was denied employment by the management, whereas the management took the stand that the 2nd respondent was terminated on the basis of an alleged theft committed by him. The Government referred the dispute for consideration by the Industrial Tribunal, Palakkad. The Tribunal by the impugned award at Ext.P1 found that there was no proper enquiry conducted in the matter, and there was a denial of employment to the workman. An amount of Rs.3,50,000/- was directed to be paid as compensation, and in the alternative, to reinstate the workman with continuity in service. It is seeking to challenge this award that the petitioner has filed the captioned writ petition.
