Mr.N.R.Prajapati for Respondent No.4. ...... CORAM:- A.M.KHANWILKAR AND MRS.MRIDULA BHATKAR, JJ. DATED:- MAY 6, 2011. P.C. 1. The principal grievance made in this petition is that no decision has been taken by the Appropriate Authority in relation to the dispute raised by the petitioner. Counsel for the respondent No.3 submits that no dispute exists and the grievance of the petitioner is already redressed in the settlement operating between the parties. The fact remains that the petitioner has made representation to the Appropriate Authority for admitting into conciliation the industrial dispute raised with the respondent 2 10115.10 No.3 noted in Exhibit E appended to the Writ Petition. Whether the said dispute exists or not, in the first place, is a matter to be considered by the Appropriate Authority. If the dispute so exists, further consequential orders will have to be passed by the Appropriate Authority. 2. In the circumstances, we dispose of this Petition with direction to the Appropriate Authority to consider the say of both sides and take decision as may be advised on the representation made by the petitioner in terms of Exhibit `E’ as expeditiously as possible, preferably within two months from today, after giving fair opportunity to both sides. 3. Petition disposed of on the above terms. (MRS.MRIDULA BHATKAR, J.) (A.M.KHANWILKAR, J.)
