DATED : 19TH APRIL, 2006 P.C. . Petitioner was before the Conciliation Officer in a matter pertaining to terminal dues. He had earlier approached this Court by a Writ Petition being Writ Petition No.2706 of 2005. That came to be disposed of by order dated 18th January, 2006. The learned Bench left the issue for consideration before the Conciliation Officer. The Conciliation Officer has declined to initiate conciliation proceedings on the ground that the dispute is an individual dispute. : 2 : 2. We find no reason to interfere with the said decision.
