I worked as a daily wage employee in the Thane Zilla Parishad from 1986 to 1995. I resigned due to low pay, but in 1998, an Industrial Court ruled that I should be considered a permanent employee from 1986 onwards. The Zilla Parishad appealed this decision in the High Court, but I didn’t appear. The High Court dismissed the petition, saying the Zilla Parishad should revive it if I sought the benefits. Now, I’m seeking the financial difference between my actual wages and what I would have earned as a permanent employee from 1986 until my resignation in 1995. The Zilla Parishad claims they can’t pay because I resigned before the court order. They also say there’s no need to revive the petition. Can I claim the salary difference and other benefits for my period of service? How should I proceed?

The Industrial Court ruling established your permanent employment status from 1986, regardless of your resignation. While the Zilla Parishad’s appeal was dismissed, you should approach the High Court to revive the petition and enforce the Industrial Court’s order. You can then claim the salary difference and other benefits for your service period from 1986 to 1995.
