State of Maharashtra and others” Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram appearances, Court's Orders Court's or Judge's orders or directions and Registrar's orders. 1 Mr. P.B. Rakhunde, Advocate for the petitioner Mrs. A.V. Gondhalekar, AGP for respondents. CORAM :- P.B. MAJMUDAR & S.S. SHINDE, JJ. DATE :- 27th April, 2011. PER COURT :- 1] By way of this petition, the petitioners have prayed for direction to the respondents to absorb them in service. It is not in dispute that the petitioners are appointed by way of contract labour. 2] If at all the petitioners are required to be absorbed directly by the principal employer, is a question which may be decided by way of a industrial dispute and not in this writ petition. However, since the application preferred by the petitioners under section 10(1) of the Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970 is pending before the respondent No.3, we direct the respondent No.3 to decide the same expeditiously and in any event within six months from today. So far as rest of the prayers are concerned, it is open for the petitioners to avail appropriate remedy under the Industrial Disputes Act. FARAD CONTINUATION SHEET NO.
