Sampath with their usual vehemence tried to convince us that there is no substances in the petition.
We however remain unconvinced.

the service of workmen mentioned in the petition under Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act.

government is directed to make a reference of the said industrial dispute to the appropriate tribunal
within the four weeks from today. We hope that as the matter is an old one, the Industrial Tribunal

3. The appeal is allowed to the extent herein indicated. In the circumstances, there would be no
order as to costs.
