The resposndent was denied the promotion to the post of Inspector. Hence he moved the Industrial Court by filing a complaint under MRTU & PULP Act alleging commission of unfair labour practice under Item No.9 of Schedule IV. The Industrial Court has allowed the complaint by judgment and order dated 31-1-2004. Belatedly the said order has been challenged by filing the instant writ petition as late as on 18-12-2006, i.e. almost after a period of three years. In para 9 of the writ petition the petitioner has stated that the impugned order was passed on 31-1-2004 and an application for certified copy was made on 6-2-2004 and the copy was received on 26-2-2004. Strangely enough thereafter it is pleaded that thus the petitioner has approached this court as expeditiously as possible.

Hence the writ petition is summarily dismissed. ...
