Judgment & Decree
Brooke Bond Pakistan Limited v. Conciliator appointed by the Government of Sind and others P L D 1977 S C 237 rel. Petitioner in person. Nemo for Respondent. Date of hearing: 5th June,1989 NASIM HASAN SHAH, J.‑‑The petitioner, who was employed as salesman with the Brooke Bond Pakistan Limited was removed from service. He agitated against his removal before the Labour Court but the Labour Court refused to entertain his plea on the ground that on account of being a salesman he was not a "workman". Hence the Labour Court did not have any jurisdiction in this matter. This view was accepted by the Punjab Labour Appellate Tribunal on appeal and not interfered with by the High Court in writ proceedings. Hence this petition for leave to appeal. The petitioner has appeared in person and has drawn our attention to this Court's decision in Brooke Bond Pakistan Limited v. Conciliator appointed by the Government of Sind and others. (P L D 1977 S C 237) wherein this Court in somewhat similar circumstances held a salesman to be a workman failing within the definition of the term in section 2(xxviii) of the Industrial Relations Ordinance, 1969. Leave granted. Security shall be furnished in the sum of Rs.1,
