Amitava Lala, J.1. This writ petition is made by one driver and conductor of a bus No. WB/25A/0908 plying in the bus route No. 211 from two parts of the city of Calcutta (Kolkata). Petitioners are earning their, livelihood by plying such bus regularly for last six years. On 2nd August, 2004 one political party called 'Bandh'. The petitioners wanted to resume their respective duties on the day of 'Bandh' when the respondent owner refused to allow them to ply the bus on the ground that in case of casualty no compensation will be given by the respective Insurance Company since according to them 'Bandh' is illegal. However, after causing certain repairing works they placed the bus on the route on 4th August, 2004 when the concerned Registered Trade Union through their leader restrained them from plying the same.

Naresh Mukherjee Vs. State of W.B. and ors.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Oct-05-2004

Reported in: 2005(3)CHN115

Amitava Lala, J.1. Therefore, disallowing the petitioners from earning their livelihood the Trade Union has caused grave injustice towards the members. I have no manner of doubt that they have taken the law in their own hands. It also appears that police has behaved like a silent spectator in spite of the intimation given to them. All elements of public law have been violated.2. Therefore, this Court has no other alternative but to dispose of the writ petition restraining the union from interfering with the livelihood of the petitioners in any manner whatsoever. The police will render all possible assistance to the owner as well as the driver and conductor of the vehicle in earning their livelihood whenever they are intimated to them. Since the question of law is called upon to discuss nobody has exchanged their affidavits. This order will have a binding effect upon the matter of W.P. No. 13332(W) of 2004 (Naresh Mukherjee v. State of W.B. and Ors.). Parties are entitled to take the gi...

Electrosteel Castings Ltd. Vs. Saw Pipes Ltd. and ors.

Court: Kolkata

Decided on: Oct-04-2004

Reported in: 2005(1)CHN612

Ajoy Nath Ray, A.C.J.1. This is an application for interim reliefs in aid of an appeal preferred from an interlocutory order passed on the 18th April, 2004, whereby the learned Judge, granted only one part of the prayers of injunction made by the plaintiff/appellant. An order was granted restraining defendants 2 to 7 from divulging secrets, but an order restraining them altogether from working with the first defendant was refused.2. The matter is pending final disposal before the Interlocutory Court and directions for affidavits have been given. However, the matter is due to appear again only in December this year. The appeal has been filed on grounds of urgency. In these circumstances, we propose to dispose of the appeal along with the application for stay and the appeal is, therefore, treated as on the day's list. Since the appeal is from an ad interim order only, it would not be right to keep the appeal pending and to allow subsequent interim order of the Interlocutory Court to wipe...

The State of West Bengal has preferred this appeal challenging the judgment and order dated 1st December, 2003 passed by the learned single Judge of this Court in connection with W.P.
