Keeping in mind afore-cited judgments of Supreme Court and to put the litigation to rest, this Court considering the length of service and last drawn pay of the workman; efflux of time; change of circumstances; absence of claim of wages in terms of Section 17-B of 1947 Act and directions of Tribunal, deems it appropriate to direct the management to pay a sum of ₹1,25,000/- as lump sum compensation to workman, failing which it would be liable to pay

-3interest @ 12% per annum from the expiry of said period. Let the needful be done within 2 months from today.

9.

Disposed of in above terms.
