The petition challenges the order passed by the Industrial Tribunal in Reference (IT) No. 27 of 2004 directing the workman to lead oral evidence first. It is the case of the petitioner that the workman was employed by the 1st respondent on the looms owned by the 1st respondent. The 1st respondent has disputed the employer-employee relationship and has contended that these looms have been given out by the employers on a contract basis. It is in these circumstances that the Industrial Court has directed the workman to lead evidence. 2 2. In my view, there is no error of law apparent on the face of the record which calls for interference by this Court under its writ jurisdiction under Art.227. 3. Writ petition rejected. .....
