Summary: The Industrial Tribunal at Pune allowed the employer's application to discard the workman's affidavit filed as examination-in-chief. The Tribunal held that preliminary issues 2 and 3 regarding the dismissal inquiry must be decided solely on the basis of the original inquiry record and proceedings, not fresh evidence. The parties are now directed to advance arguments on the preliminary issues, with the workman's right to present evidence on remaining issues reserved for later.
