Judgment
Heard learned counsel for the parties. Petitioners claim themselves to be the daily rated workers engaged as watch man. It is their case that they have been working for more than 20 years but suddenly all of a sudden they have been disengaged. Two things which the Court would like to refer one that the reason for disengagement is obvious as the Corporation has become a defunct Corporation and secondly the remedy is available to the petitioners under Industrial Dispute Act. When alternative statutory remedy is available the Court would not like to waste public time in adjudication of the matter and creating a right specially under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. If the petitioners feel that there are violation of section 25F of the Industrial Dispute Act they may have to move the appropriate forum for adjudication with regard to the same. In so far as this writ application is concerned, the same is disposed of with the above liberty. RPS (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
