Summary The Industrial Court, Rajkot rejected an employee's claim for reinstatement against the Telecom Department (now BSNL). Although the court confirmed the applicant was a workman employed as casual labor and was terminated (not voluntarily abandoned), it found he failed to prove the required 240 days of continuous service stipulated under Section 25-B of the Industrial Disputes Act; with only 135 days worked, he was ineligible for the statutory protections requiring notice, compensation, and adherence to retrenchment procedures. Consequently, the applicant received no relief or damages. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
