THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.2212 OF 2010 ORDER: The grievance of the petitioner herein is that they were denied an opportunity by the Industrial Tribunal–II, Hyderabad to cross- examine WW4 on the ground that the witness was sailing with the respondent (petitioner herein) and that the respondents did not have the right to cross-examine the witness after the said witness was cross- examined by the contesting party. While several contentions are raised by Sri V. Hariharan, Learned Counsel for the petitioner, in support of the petitioners challenge to the validity of the Tribunal’s conclusions, it is wholly unnecessary to examine any of them in as much as Sri G. Vidya Sagar, Learned Counsel appearing on behalf of 3rd respondent, would fairly state that, since WW4 was a witness examined by the 3rd respondent Union, the 3rd respondent was ready and willing to have the said witness produced for being cross-examined by the petitioner. There shall, therefore, be a direction to the Industrial Tribunal II, Hyderabad to permit the petitioner to cross-examine WW4 and, thereafter, proceed with the matter in accordance with law. The Writ Petition is disposed of. No costs. ____________________________ Date: 26.04.2010 RAMESH RANGANATHAN,J MRKR
