RAIJIBHAI BHIKHABHAI PARMAR AND ORS Vs. RELIANCE INDUSTRIES LTD. (FORMERLY KNOWN AS INDIAN PETROCHEMICALS CORPORATION LTD.) AND ANR.

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Leave granted.

(2.) The limited grievance of the appellants is on the direction to deposit the amounts already received by them at the time of the alleged cessation of employment with the respondents as a pre-condition for the Labour Court to enter adjudication on the grievance raised by the employees.

(3.) Having heard Mr. R.P.Bhatt, learned senior counsel appearing for the appellants and Mr. C.U.Singh, learned senior Counsel appearing for the respondents, in the peculiar facts and circumstances of the case, we are of the view that the interest of justice would be advanced if the direction of the High Court to deposit the amounts already received by appellants at the time of cessation, is partly modified.
