JUDGMENT 1. - Petitioner has challenged the order dated 29.1.2001 passed by the respondent No. I refusing to refer the dispute in regard to termination of services of the petitioner for adjudication to a competent court on the ground that the petitioner has worked only for 82 days, as such, no relief under the Industrial Disputes Act can be granted to him. 2. After having carefully gone through the material on record, in view of so many disputed questions of fact and law, the adjudication could not have been denied to petitioner in such a cursory casual manner. It is only a competent court which can decide all the issues after taking evidence of both the parties and grant appropriate relief to the concerned workman. 3. Accordingly, the writ petition is allowed. The impugned order dated 29.1.2001 is quashed and set aside. The respondent No. 1 is now directed to refer the dispute in regard to termination of services of the petitioner to a competent court for adjudication within 30 days from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order.Writ petition allowed. *******
