Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jan-16-1964

Reported in: AIR1964All454; [1964(8)FLR174]; (1964)ILLJ717All

Pathak, J. 1. Our learned brother Seth dismissed the petition for certiorari filed by the appellant, and it is urged before us that his decision is incorrect because the award was manifestly erroneous in law.2. It is contended that the application initialing conciliation proceedings was signed by an officer of the Press Workers Union and that the provisions of Section 6-1(3) prohibited the making of that application by that officer inasmuch as on the date when the application was made the Union had not been registered for a period of two years. We are of the opinion that this contention cannot be accepted. The provisions of Section 6-1 provide for representation of the parties in proceedings before a Board, Labour Court or Tribunal. The Board has been defined by Section 2(d) of the U. P. Industrial Disputes act as a Conciliation Board constituted under Clause (d) of Section 3. According to the order contained in notification No. 738-ST (XXXVI-A-112-ST) 1957 dated December 31, 1957, whi...
