Case Number 7(10) of 1985
Decision Date Mar 03, 1985
Hearing Date
Decision The petition filed by Syed Nazim Hussain Shah was dismissed as the order abolishing the posts of duty clerks had already been executed on January 24, 1985. The Commission confirmed that no status quo ante could apply, as the circumstances of the case indicated that the posts in question were already abolished. Therefore, the request for injunction against the order was not warranted, leading to the dismissal of the petition.
Summary In the case of Syed Nazim Hussain Shah vs Punjab Urban Transport Corporation, the National Industrial Relations Commission deliberated on the petitioner's plea against his removal from the duty clerk position. The case revolved around the Industrial Relations Ordinance and procedural regulations, emphasizing the importance of maintaining established legal frameworks. The Commission ruled on the inability to revert to the previous status due to the abolition of the duty clerk posts, which effectively nullified the petitioner's request. This case highlights the intersection of labor rights and administrative decisions in public service, reinforcing the procedural integrity of the Industrial Relations landscape. Key takeaway for legal professionals: understanding the implications of procedural law in employment matters is crucial for effective representation.
