Industry
Industry, 'Industrial dispute' and 'workman' taken in the extended significance, or exclude it. Though the word 'undertaking' in definition of industry is wedged in between business and trade on the one hand and manufacture on the other, and though therefore it might mean only a business or trade undertaking, still it must be remembered that if that were so, there was no need to use the word separately from business or trade. The wider import is attracted even more clearly when we look at the latter part of the definition which refers to 'calling, service, employment, or industrial occupation of, avocation of workman. 'Undertak-ing' in the first part of the definition and 'industrial occupation or avocation in the second part obviously mean much more than what is ordinarily understood by trade or business. The definition was apparently intended to include within scope what might not strictly be called a trade or business venture, Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board v. A. Rajappa,...
Jagirdars
Jagirdars, the definition of jagir in s. 2(h) is, as provided therein, subject to any contrary intention which the context might disclose; and when s. 22(1)(a) enacts that on the resumption of jagir lands the rights of the jagirdar in the lands should cease, it clearly means that the holders of jagirs are jagirdars for the purpose of the section. There cannot be jagirs without there being Jagirdars, and therefore the word 'Jagirdar' in s. 22(1)(a) must mean all holders of jagirs including the tenures mentioned in the Schedule to the Act, Thakur Amar Singhji v. State of Rajasthan, AIR 1955 SC 504 (532): (1955) 2 SCR 303. [Rajasthan Land Reforms and Resumption of Jagirs Act, 1952 (6 of 1952), ss. 2(h) and 22(1) (a)]...
