Decision |
The appeal was dismissed on the grounds that the order passed under section 51 of the Industrial Relations Ordinance, 1969, is not appealable. The Labour Court's decision to reinstate Bashir Ahmed with back benefits was upheld, as the provisions of the law clearly state that such orders are final and shall not be questioned before any court or authority. The court emphasized that the appeal does not lie against the orders passed under section 51, reiterating the finality of the Labour Court's decisions unless specific circumstances arise that allow for review. |
