ORDER

Leave granted.

We are not inclined to interfere with the impugned order passed by the High Court of Judicature at
Allahabad, Lucknow Bench, and Lucknow by which the award passed by the Labour Court was
affirmed with 25% of back wages. Considering the facts and circumstances of these cases, we are
of the view that 25% of back wages shall not bellowed to be paid to the respondent. We order
accordingly. With this modification, the order of the High Court is affirmed. The appeals are
accordingly disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs.
