Union Of India (Uoi) vs Chajju Ram (Dead) By Lrs. And Ors on 16 April, 2003

13 In the recent judgment reported as Union of India vs Kunkuben (Dead)by LRs and others (2006 LLR 494), the Hon'ble U V W X Y Z [ \ ] ^ \ ] ] _ Supreme Court has held Overtime Allowance cannot be claimed U/s 33-C(2) of the ID Act on the ground that the workman's entitlement to the same requires prior adjudication. 14 AR for the management has also contended that the claim of the workman is liable to be rejected being time barred. AR for workman pointed out that the workman was waiting for decision of labour court in a similar matter filed by another workman against DDA. When the claim of said workman was allowed by labour court-IV vide order dated 08.03.2004, the present application was filed by the workman. In my considered opinion pendency of another similar case in the court cannot be a ground for the claimant for not filing his own claim. Every case is decided on its own facts. In fact, the workman should have been more vigilant and motivated when his co-worker filed his case way back in 1993. Even otherwise there is no explanation as to why the present claim was filed more than two years after the said judgment.
