Shivaji s/o Vasudeo Kate -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's Orders or Court's or Judge's Orders directions and Registrar's orders. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Shri S.R. Deshpande, Adv. for petitioners] CORAM:- A.B. CHAUDHARI, J. DATED :- 18.06.2008 This petition is directed against an interlocutory order made by the Industrial Court, refusing to grant stay in a pending revision that was filed by the petitioners, having prima facie found no substance in the said revision. Advocate Shri Deshpande for the petitioners argued that Forest Department is not industry. He has cited decision of this Court in the case of Marathwada Sarwa Shramik Sanghatna..Vrs..Assistant Director, Department of Social Forestry, Parbhani, reported in 2002 (3) Mh.L.J. 760. 2 The question is pending before the larger Bench of the Apex Court. However, in view of the fact that the reference is not yet answered by the larger Bench of the Apex Court, I prefer not to follow the said decision for the present. In this view of the matter, no interference is called for in the present writ petition, but the Industrial Court, Akola is directed to decide the Revision ULP No.59/2006 within a period of six months from today. Writ Petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. JUDGE ssw
