Testeels Ltd. Vs. N.M. Desai and anr.

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Apr-05-1966

Reported in: AIR1970Guj1; (1969)GLR622(GJ)

Bhagwati, C.J.1. This Reference raises a very important question in the field of administrative law. The question is whether an administrative officer dicharging quasi-judicial fuctions is boun to give reasons in support of order he makes. Is it required of him that he should make a speaking order? The question arises in reference to an order made by the conciliation officer under Section 33(2)(b) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. A conciliation proceeding was pending before the conciliation officer in regard to an industrial dispute between the petitioner and its workmen. During the pendency of the conciliation proceeding the petitioner discharged the second respondent who was one of the workmen employed in the factory of the petitioner after following the procedure prescribed by the Standing Orders.

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Apr-04-1966

Reported in: (1966)7GLR1077

Akbar S. Sarela, J.1. The short question arising for determination in this second appeal is whether the plaintiff-respondent was liable to be assessed for non-Gharkhed in his holding at the rate of 12 1/2 % of the total assessment of those lands. The plaintiff's case was that he was not so liable. The contention of the State-defendant was that he was so liable at that rate. Both the lower courts have found in favour of the plaintiff-respondent. The defendant-State has come in appeal.2. The facts bearing on this question are few and are not in dispute. The plaintiff-respondent was the holder of what is known as Dhank Jagir, which was a Jagir under the Gondal State. That State integrated with State of Saurashtra and became part of the territory of the State of Saurashtra. The State of Saurashtra after it was formed immediately undertook a number of legislative measures for agrarian reform and one of such measures was the Saurashtra Gharkhed Tenancy Settlement and Agricultural Lands Ordin...
