7.wp.1807-10 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITON NO.1807 OF 2010 Bank Employees Union, Kolhapur. ..Petitioner. Versus Ichalkaranji Jiveshwar Sahakari Bank Ltd., Ichalkaranji and others. ..Respondents. ... Mr.S.R. Ganbavale, Advocate for the Petitioner. Mr.S.N. Patil, AGP, for Respondent No.4 - State. ... CORAM : D.K. DESHMUKH & A.R. JOSHI, JJ. DATED : MARCH 10, 2010. P.C. 1. The names of respondent Nos.1 to 3 are permitted to be deleted at the request of the learned Counsel for the petitioner. 2. Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith. Heard finally by consent of the parties. 3. The short grievance of the petitioner is that respondent No.4 has declined permission to the petitioner to go on with the proceedings that it has initiated against the Bank under liquidation without giving any reason for doing so. The 7.wp.1807-10 2 petitioners are employees of the Society under liquidation and their proceedings are pending before the Labour Court. In view of the provisions of the Act, as the Society is under liquidation those proceedings cannot be proceeded further without permission of the Registrar. In our opinion, therefore, the Registrar was under the obligation to give reason why the permission to proceed with the proceedings with the Labour Court is not being given. In our opinion, therefore, the following order would meet the ends of justice : :: O R D E R :: [i] Order dated 5.11.2007 is set aside. Respondent No.4 is directed to make a fresh reasoned order. [ii] Rule made absolute accordingly. No order as to costs. (D.K. DESHMUKH,J.) (A.R. JOSHI, J.)
