The Management Of Tamil Nadu vs The Presiding Officer on 6 August, 2010

The appellant Corporation, having taken a plea that the driver of the bus was not responsible for the accident, could not turn around to say that he was responsible for the accident. As such, it is very much bound by the pleadings raised by its before the Tribunals and this Court. The law is well settled as to the aspect that the standard of proof in both the proceedings before the criminal Court and the domestic enquiry officer are entirely different. However, since the Corporation has consciously raised the contention in favour of the bus driver before the judicial for a, it is precluded from proceeding against him in departmental proceedings. Though the extent of proof is sufficient to the commission of delinquency in the matter of departmental proceedings, the management could not lay its hands on the workman, detrimental to his interest, after defending him before various judicial for a and accepting the findings of the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Karur. Further, in the dismissal order dated December 9, 1998, it is mentioned that even though a scrutiny of the service records would show that the respondent was not at all penalised at any point of time, since he caused a fatal accident, it was proposed to dismiss him from service, which shows that the past records of the respondent were also clean."

However he is aggrieved with regard to reinstatement without back wages. He relied upon a Division Bench judgement of this Court in Pandian Roadways Corporation Limited (represented by its Managing Director), Madurai vs. Presiding Officer, Additional Labour Court, Madurai and another reported in 2002 1 LLN 348.
