Both Officers at Ist Floor, Old Voltas Campus, Bailey Road, Patna-1. …….Respondents 2nd Set. ----------- 04. 26.11.2009 Petitioner is a Central Co-operative Bank. It has come to this Court on the plea that it is being harassed by its employees. It submits that the employees are sitting on Dharna and creating a nuisance spoiling the Office working environment. Learned counsel for Respondent No. 5 submits that there has been orders of this Court, orders of various Tribunals and Authorities which the management is not enforcing. It is for enforcement of their rights the Trade Unions are exercising their lawful and legitimate rights that can not be stopped and/or interfered with in as much as they are not disturbing the public banking services. Their Dharnas are at the Head Office and - 2 - the Regional Office which houses only having administrative staff. It is submitted that Respondents having taken all lawful means but the petitioner be in higher position are avoiding to implement orders. They are left with no option but to go at Dharna. Learned counsel for the petitioner points out that on several occasions the union leaders have left the place of Dharna and entered into the Office and Chamber of the Chairman and virtually manhandled Officers. If that be so, then petitioner is at liberty to move appropriate authorities for protection and violation of their rights. But certainly this Court can not be dragged into controversies between the two parties so long as the Dharna is within its present shape. There can not be any physical intimidation or physical interaction nor can the employees under the union forcefully enter the Office premises even Dharnas have to be in an orderly fashion. That is all that this Court can do in respect of the dispute between the management and the Union. With these observations, the writ petition stands disposed off. Shageer (Navaniti Prasad Singh, J)
