' The appeal captioned above challenges the decision, dated 14th November, 1982 passed by the learned Presiding Officer, Punjab Labour Court No, 6, Rawalpindi, dismissing the grievance petition of the appellant for his re-instatement in service.

2. The allegation against the-appellant was that he had issued three-used tickets and had realised fare at the rate of 50 paisas per head, misappropriating the amount to his own use The plea of the appellant was that tickets were not used but due to insufficient light in the bus he had not been able to properly punch them. Not only that the tickets were already punched, but the destination for which the tickets had been previously issued was different from the ones to which their holders were travelling. This shows that the tickets were used and had been re-issued. The appellant misappropriated the fare recovered on those tickets. No doubt the said used tickets were not produced before the learned lower Court but it makes no difference because the plea of the appellant is not that the destination of the passengers given on them was not different than the ones to which their holders were travelling. If this plea had been raised, of course, in order to verify the destination the presence of the tickets on the record would have been necessary. The appellant was thus rightly dismissed and his grievance petition disallowed.

3. As a result of what has been observed above, the appeal being without force is dismissed. revisions by the competent authorities. Therefore, it is advisable to consult the official sources or legal professionals for the most up-to-date and accurate information.
