RIAZ AHMAD Versus GOVERNMENT TRANSPORT SERVICE

The appellant has challenged the decision dated 11‑7‑1985 passed by the learned Presiding Officer, Punjab Labour Court No.1 Lahore, whereby the respondent was directed to treat the appellant as permanent badli conductor on account of completing 183 days of service. The grounds taken up in appeal are that the learned lower Court has not mentioned the date from which the appellant is to be treated as a permanent badli conductor and that no order with regard to payment of wages has been passed. The appeal is misconceived. In reality the appellant had no cause to challenge the impugned order. Whatever he demanded in his grievance petition has been awarded to him. Since according to the learned lower Court the appellant had completed his service as badli conductor for more than 183 days he was declared as a permanent badli conductor. Obviously if the impugned order stands the date of confirmation would be that on which the appellant was appointed as badli conductor and it was not necessary to mention this fact. So far as wages are concerned the appellant did not say in his petition if any wages were due or that he was paid wages less than the ones to which he is entitled. Since he was not removed from service and he only asked for being treated as permanent, badli conductor no question of payment of wages arises.

2. The appeal thus is dismissed in limine.
