Deat Mt. Bansal,
Kindly detail the complaint so filed by the workmen, for finding a solution to the problem. If you employed them and did not pay minimum wages then you are liable under the MWA. However if you did not employ them and it is a false claim then the onus of proving the employer- employee relationship is on the complainant. You have to see what proof of employment the complainants have with them. Deny the relationship of master and servant as a preliminary objection to the maintainability of the complaint/claim.
