The respondents are served. Shri SR Brahmbhatt appears for the respondent no.1. Respondent no.2 is served, but none appears on his behalf. Heard Shri TR Mishra, learned counsel for the petitioner and Shri SR Brahmbhatt for the respondent no.1 on admission of the petition. Looking to the averments in the petition, it can be finally disposed of at the admission stage. #. Order dated 27-6-1996 Annexure-'A' shows that a direction was given by this Court in SCA No.2580/1996 decided on 27-6-1996 to the Industrial Tribunal, Rajkot to decide Industrial Dispute Case No.23/1993 preferably by 31-1-1997. The grievance of the petitioner is that, since then the said Industrial Dispute Case is pending and it has not been decided. It appears that, in the intervening period, the Tribunal at Rajkot was not functional. Now, Shri Mishra informs that both the Tribunals at Rajkot have become functional. Consequently, the reliefs prayed in this petition have become infructuous. However, since the Industrial Dispute Case No.23/1993 is still pending, relief in the moulded form can be given with a direction to the concerned Industrial Tribunal at Rajkot, where this Industrial Dispute Case is pending, to decide the same expeditiously, positively within a period of five months from the date of communication of this order. #. With the above direction, the writ petition is finally disposed of with no order as to cost. Direct service is permitted. May 2, 2001. [ D.C. Srivastava, J.] /sakkaf
