This query is : Open
The direction issued by the Payment of wages Act Authority / DLC Lucknow u/s 15(2) but the employer has not compiled the said direction, Whether issuing a recovery certificate to the District Magistrate Lucknow is legal ?
Can a District Magistrate recover wages as fine?
Whether the District Magistrate is a Magistrate as required under this section? All this one has confused me please suggest me the correct position of law ? So that I can put my case properly.

The district magistrate has got power to recover the amount of decree as a revenue recovery and law provides this right.
