The Supreme Court has asked the news papers to implementation the Majithia Wage Board award on pay structures of journalists and non- journalists in full.

A bench of Justices Ranjan Gogoi and Navin Sinha said on Monday that the part implementation and non-implementation of the Majithia Wage Board award by some newspaper establishments would not amount to wilful default attracting contempt.

The court also said the award has been approved by it in its judgment on



February 7, 2014 and, therefore, has to be "implemented in full".Granting one more opportunity for implementation of the Wage Board award and its judgement, the court said non-implementation or partial implementation clearly stemmed from the understanding of the award by the concerned newspaper establishments in a particular manner.

The apex court was delivering its judgement while disposing off 83 contempt petitions filed by journalists, non-journalists and associations.
