1. T.K. Rangarajan v. Government of Tamil Nadu, Appeal (civil)B.A. 5556LL.B
of 2003
2015
- TN government terminated the services of all government servants who resorted to strike
- This was challenged before the HC of Madras by filing writ petitions under Article
226/227 of the Consti
- Thee court held that Government servant has neither fundamental nor statutory nor moral
right to go on a strike..
- Strike as a weapon is mostly misused which results in chaos and total mal administration.
Strike affects the society as a whole and neither the constitution nor the SC of India has
provided at any point of time by which the workmen, either governed by the Industrial
Disputes Act or the government employees governed by their respective rules prescribed
by their respective states concerned, are having a fundamental right to strike.
- The ratio for this case is confined to government servants only.
- If the workers, declare the strike without contravening any of the provisions of section 22
or 23, as the case may be, then such strike would definitely be construed as legal strike.
Therefore, it can be said that the right to strike is not a fundamental right, rather it can be
a legal right.
2. All India Bank Employees’ Association v. National Industrial Tribunal and Others
(1962 3 SCR 269) – Is strike a FR?
ISSUE - Is strike a fundamental right? Whether the right guaranteed to form a union provided
in Article 19(1)(c ) of the constitution carries within it an associated right that the
achievement of the object for which the union is formed.
- In other words, it was submitted that the Article 19(1) (c ) guarantees the right to form
associations, a guarantee is also implied that the fulfillment of every object of an
association so formed is also protected right, with the result that there is a constitutional
guarantee that every association shall effectively achieve the purpose for which it was
formed.
COURT
- rejecting the contention, held that the right to form unions guaranteed by article 19(1) (c )
thus does not carry with it a fundamental right in the union so formed to achieve every
object for which it was formed.
- Even a very liberal interpretation of Article 19(1) (c ) cannot lead to the conclusion, that
the trade unions have a guaranteed right to an effective collective bargaining or to strike,
either as part of collective bargaining or otherwise.
- The Court (C.B.) held that lawyers have no right to go on strike or give a call for boycott
and even they cannot go on a token strike. The Court has specifically observed that for
just or unjust cause, strike cannot be justified in the present-day situation. strike in any
field, it can be easily realised that the weapon does more harm than any justice. Sufferer is
the society -- public at large.
- . The protest, if any is required, can only be by giving press statements, TV interviews,
carrying out of Court premises banners and/or placards, wearing black or white or any
colour arm bands, peaceful protest marches outside and away from Court premises, going
on dharnas or relay fasts etc. …only in the rarest of rare cases where the dignity, integrity
and independence of the Bar and/or the Bench are at stake, Courts may ignore (turn a
blind eye) to a protest abstention from work for not more than one day…”

LAY OFF
(1) The provisions of this Chapter shall have effect notwithstanding anything
inconsistent therewith contained in any other law [including standing orders made
under the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946.
AKANSHA RUKHAIYAR
B.A. LL.B 2015
h. Keeping in mind the foregoing, it was held in this case that Rule 8of the Standing
Orders will be applicable to the workmen.
i. The matter was heard by the Tribunal and it held that under the relevant provision
of the Standing Order, the lay-off was justified.
j. The Tribunal also held that the tea estates had a common law right to lay-off. The
Tribunal also went on to find that the tea estates did in fact suffer considerable
losses and held that the duration of 24 days would have sufficed for lay-off in 5
tea estates.
k. Issue:
i. Whether or not the Tribunal was justified in holding that Section 25-C
recognises the common law right of the respondent to declare a lay off for
reasons other than those specified in the relevant clause of the standing
order?
l. Argument of tea estates:
i. Even though trading reasons may not justify the declaration of lay off
under the said clause, as prudent employers who must be given the liberty
to run their industry in the best manner they choose, they have a common
law right to declare a lay off if they feel that the alternative to the lay off
would be closure
m. Court
i. This question must be answered in the negative. When the laying off of
the workmen is referred to in Section 25-C, it is the laying off as defined
by Section 2(kkk), and so, workmen who can claim the benefit of Section
25-C must be workmen who are laid off and laid off for reasons
contemplated by Section2(kkk);
ii. If any case is not covered by the Standing Orders, it will necessarily be
governed by the provisions of the Act, and lay off would be permissible
only where one or the other of the factors mentioned by Section 2(kkk) is
present, and for such lay off compensation would be awarded.
iii. The Tribunal was not right in holding that Section 25C recognizes the
inherent right of the employer to declare lay off for reasons which he may
regard as sufficient or satisfactory in that behalf.
iv. The financial distress argument was rejected as sufficient proof was not
adduced to show that the tea estates completely failed to raise the
necessary finances, among other reasons laid down in para 7 of judgment
+ ejusdem generis (must be integrally connected with production)
2. Workman of Firestone Tyre and Rubber Co. v. The Firestone Tyre and Rubber
Co.
a. Facts -
AKANSHA RUKHAIYAR
B.A. LL.B 2015
i. The company has its head office at Bombay. It manufactures tyres at its
Bombay factory. The company also has its distribution office in Delhi.
ii. There was a strike in the Bombay factory from March 03, 1967 to May 16,
1967. As a result of the strike, there was a short supply of tyres to the
Delhi office.
iii. In the Delhi office, there were 30 employees at the relevant time. 17 out of
these 30 workers were laid off by the management.
iv. Once the workers were re-instated, they were neither given their regular
wages for those days, nor the lay-off compensation.
v. Issue: Whether the management had a right to lay off their workmen?
vi. Court
1. The respondent company employed only 30 workmen at its Delhi office at the relevant
time. Therefore, as per Section 25A of TIDA, Sections 25C to 25E are not applicable to
this company.
2. There were no standing orders in place between the company and the workmen as the
Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946 only applies to establishments with
more than 100 workmen.
3. There was no contract in place between the employer and the workmen giving the right of
lay-off to the employer.
4. There’s no inherent “power” of lay-off with the employers as per Section 2(kkk) of TIDA.
5. The Court cited Management of Hotel Imperial, New Delhi v. Hotel Workers’ Union where
it was stated, “… The absence of such power either as an express term in the contract or in
the rules framed under some statute would mean that the master would have no power to
suspend a workman and even if he does so in the sense that he forbids the employee to
work, he will have to pay wages during the so-called period of suspension…” and agreed
with the conclusion therefore.
6. The Court goes on to cite Workmen of Dewan Tea Estate and its rationale and said that, “if
the power of lay-off is there in the standing orders but the grounds of lay-off are not
covered by them, rather, are governed by the provisions of the Act, then layoff would be
permissible only on one or the other of the factors mentioned in Section 2(kkk).”
7. held that, “If the term of contract of service or the statutory terms engrafted in the standing
orders do not give the power of lay-off to the employer, the employer will be bound to pay
compensation for the period of lay-off which ordinarily and generally would be equal to the
full wages of the concerned workmen.”
8. The crux therefore being that the power to lay-off needs to be provided either in the
Standing Orders of each establishment or in the contract itself. If no such power is provided
for, employers have no right of lay-off. If such power is given, but no grounds are laid
down. Then grounds under Section 2(kkk) to be looked at. If power and grounds given
under Standing Order or contract, then the one which is more beneficial to be looked at as
per Section 25J.
9. In the instant case, neither was there any Standing Orders in place, nor was there any terms
of service which conferred on the employer the right of ‘lay-off’. In such a situation, the
conclusion seems to be inescapable that the workmen were laid off without any authority of
law. Therefore, ordinarily and generally the workmen would be entitled to their full wages,
subject to any power of the Courts as provided for in TIDA.

g. The Court took into consideration the foregoing statement of the manager and
also took notice of the fact that the limestone quarry and the cement factory were
in fact owned by the same company.
h. What did the Court say?
i. The Court listed out possible tests that one can apply under the
circumstances. These are: (1) Ownership, (2) control and supervision, (3)
finance, (4) management and employment, (5) Geographical proximity,
and (6) general unity of purpose and functional integrality. The Court also
pointed out the true relationship between units must be judged based on
proved facts and no one test will always be useful. Therefore, a holistic
perspective must be applied, keeping in mind the scheme and the object of
‘lay-off’ under TIDA.
AKANSHA RUKHAIYAR
B.A. LL.B 2015
ii. Applying the foregoing test and keeping in mind the factual scenario of
this case, the Court held that the cement factory and the limestone quarry
are in fact part of the same establishment for the purposes of Section 25E
(iii).
LOCK OUT
1. Kairbetta Estate v. Rajamanichickam
i. Facts
i. The manager of the appellant was assaulted by some workmen of the
appellant, as a result of which the manager suffered six fractures.
ii. The staff in the Keslo division were also threatened with dire
consequences if they went to work. The staff members wrote to the
management about it, where after the management closed the keslo
division until further notice.
iii. Upon re-instatement the workers of the Keslo division claim lay-off
compensation. The Labour Court granted lay-off compensation to these
workers and at the same time admitting that the actions of the employer
constituted ‘lock out’.
j. Issue –
i. Whether the closure of the appellant’s division during the relevant period
which amounts to a lockout [defined by section 2(l) of TIDA] can be said
to fall within the definition of lay-off under Section 2(kkk)?
k. Section 2(l) of TIDA defines ‘lock-out’ to mean “the temporary closing of a place
of employment, or the suspension of work, or the refusal by an employer to
continue to employ any number of persons employed by him.”
l. The question here is whether ‘lock-out’ could fall within the ambit of the phrase
“any other reason” to which Section 2(kkk) refers.
m. Note: The words “any other reason” appearing in Section 2(kkk) have now been
amended to read, “any other connected reason”. Therefore, it sheds more clarity
on what all could be included within the meaning of ‘lay-off’.
n. Cou rt
i. The expression “any other reason” should be construed to mean similar or
analogus to the preceding reasons specified in Section 2(kkk).
ii. Lock out is essentially the anti-thesis of a strike. Just as a strike is
available to the employees for enforcing their industrial demands, a lock
out is a weapon available to the employer to persuade by a coercive
process the employees to see his point of view and accept his demands.
Therefore, conceptually speaking, the concept of ‘lock-out’ is very
different from ‘lay-off’.
iii. Also, the liability of the employer for lockout would depend on whether
the lockout was justified and legal or not.
RETRENCHMENT
AKANSHA RUKHAIYAR
B.A. LL.B 2015
a. Facts
i. Provision for automatic termination of services on account of absence is not covered
by exception (bb) to s. 2 (oo)
ii. In this case, the R was a permanent employee of P.
iii. There was no fixed term contract of service between them
iv. Since there was no contract, none of the two situations in exception (bb) are
covered. 1. No question of service being terminated on expiry of contract.
2. No question of termination due to stipulation to that effect in contract
v. Therefore, the rule of exception was not applicable. R’s termination was
retrenchment.
vi. “Liable to automatic retrenchment”- discretion of employer- cannot be unchecked-
principles of natural justice and right to be heard have to be applied especially since
she was a permanent employee. She must also be told why she was retrenched.
vii. Therefore, retrenchment was improper
b.
3. Anand Bihari v. RSRTC and Others
a. The workers in question were appointed as drivers to drive the roadways buses of
the Corporation.
b. Some time in 1987, their routine medical examination showed that they had
developed a defective eyesight and that they were unable to drive buses any
further.
c. The Corporation issued show cause notices to them asking why their services
should not be terminated. The Corporation then terminated their services.
d. The termination was challenged on the ground that the termination amounted to
retrenchment and that mandatory provisions under Section 25F have not been
followed.
e. The workmen not only prayed for the quashing of the orders terminating their
services, but in the alternative also prayed for the direction to the Corporation to
offer them the alternate job of a helper.
f. The Corporation of course insists that such termination was not retrenchment as it
was based on the continued ill health of the workmen.
g. Issue - Whether or not termination of service of bus drivers who’re unable to
drive buses any further due to their weak eye sight, is retrenchment under TIDA?
h. Court
i. There is no dispute that the only sub-clause of the definition of retrenchment
which can cover the present termination of service is sub-clause (c).
ii. It can be scarcely disputed that the expression “ill-health” used in sub-clause
(c) has to be construed relatively and in its context. i.e. the ill health must
have a bearing on the normal discharge of duties of the workman. It is not
any illness but that which interferes with the usual orderly functioning of the
duties of the post which would be attracted by the sub-clause.
iii. Conversely, even if the illness does not affect general health or general
capacity and is restricted only to a particular limb or organ but affects the
efficient working of the work entrusted, it will be covered by the phrase
iv. The phrase has also to be construed from the point of view of the consumers
AKANSHA RUKHAIYAR
B.A. LL.B 2015
of the concerned products and services. In this case, if the drivers are allowed
to drive the buses, it puts the lives of consumers in danger. Therefore, a
realistic meaning is to be attributed to the said phrase. Hence, in this case, the
termination of services of drivers was not retrenchment.
v. it was held that the expression ‘ill-health’ used in Ss 2(oo)(c) has to be
construed relatively and in its context.
vi. Hence, the termination per se is not illegal on ground that the provisions of s
25F have not been followed while effecting it.
CLOSURE
ILLEGAL STRIKE
1. Rohtas Industries v. Union 1976
a. Labour and Industrial
b. Compensation - Section 10-A of Industrial Disputes Act, 1947
AKANSHA RUKHAIYAR
B.A. LL.B 2015
c. There was strike in the industry . Parties agreed to refer dispute to arbitration
d. Employees claimed wages for period of strike while employer claimed
compensation for losses suffered during strike
e. Arbitrator held employees guilty and asked them to make payment to
management - High Court reversed Order – If disputes related to enforcement of
right remedy is adjudication under Act - compensation for loss of business not
related to employment, non-employment or terms of employment or with
condition of labour
f. Therefore, dispute in question not an industrial dispute within meaning of Act
g. Reference under Section.10-A is restricted to present or apprehending industrial
disputes - reference to arbitration under Section 10-A was not valid and so the
Award was not valid either.
h. If the purpose of the combination leading to strike was to inflict damage, it would
be conspiracy. If the aim of the combination was to improve wage prospects, it is
not a tort of conspiracy even if it affects the interests of the employer. The right
to strike is an essential element of collective bargaining.
i. In the present case, the strike was due to non-implementation of existing award
and there were no ulterior motives. Hence, the strike is not illegal.
j. Even if they are illegal under s. 24, they do not lose immunity under s. 18.
Immunity under s. 18 is unaffected by legality or illegality. The workers
demonstrations are protected so long as they are peaceful and not violent
iv. In answer to the allegation in the petition that the driver-constables of the
Delhi Police Force perform no less arduous duties than drivers in other
departments, it was admitted by the respondents in their counter that the duties
of the driver-constables of the Delhi Police Force were onerous.
v. What then is the reason for giving them a lower scale of pay than others?
There is none. The only answer of the respondents is that the drivers of the
Delhi Police Force and the other drivers belong to different departments and
that the principle of equal pay for equal work is not a principle which the
Courts may recognize and act upon, which is unsound and the clarification is
irrational.
vi. Therefore, SC allowed the Writ Petition and direct the respondents to fix the
scale of pay of the petitioner and the drivers-constables of the Delhi Police
Force atleast on a par with that of the drivers of the Railway Protection Force.
2. PUDR
a. the Supreme Court considered the scope and ambit of Article 23 in detail. The
Court held that the scope of Article 23 is wide and unlimited and strikes at "traffic
in human beings" and "beggar and other forms of forced labour" wherever they are
found.
b. It is not merely "beggar" which is prohibited by Article 23 but also all other forms
of forced labour, "Beggar is a form of forced labour under which a person is
compelled to work without receiving any remuneration. This Article strikes at
forced labour in whatever form it may manifest itself, because it is violative of
human dignity and contrary to basic human values. The practice of forced labour is
condemned in almost every international instrument dealing with human rights.
Every form of forced labour "beggar" or other forms, is prohibited by Article 23
and it makes no difference whether the person who is forced to give his labour or
service to another is paid remuneration or not.
c. Even if remuneration is paid, labour or services supplied by a person would be hit
by this Article, if it is forced labour, e.g., labour supplied not willingly but as a
result of force or compulsion, this Article strikes at every form of forced labour
even if it has its origin in a contract voluntarily entered into by the person obligated
to provide labour or service.
d. If a person has contracted with another to perform service and there is a
consideration for such service, in the shape of liquidation of debt or even
remuneration he cannot be forced by compulsion of law, or otherwise to continue to
perform such service as it would be forced labour within the meaning of Article 23.
e. No one shall be forced to provide labour or service against his will even though it
be under a contract of service.
f. The word "force" was interpreted by the court very widely. Bhagwati, J. said, 'The
word 'force' must therefore be construed to include not only physical or legal force
but also force arising from the compulsion of economic circumstances which leaves
no choice of alternatives to a person in want and compels him to provide labour or
AKANSHA RUKHAIYAR
B.A. LL.B 2015
service even though the remuneration received for it is less than the minimum
wage.
g. Section 5. No discrimination to be made while recruiting men and women workers.
-- On and from the commencement of this Act, no employer shall, while making
recruitment for the same work or work of a similar nature, or in any condition of
service subsequent to recruitment such as promotions, training or transfer, make any
discrimination against women except where the employment of women in such
work is prohibited or restricted by or under any law for the time being in force:
h. Provided that the provisions of this section shall not affect any priority or
reservation for scheduled castes or scheduled tribes, ex-servicemen, retrenched
employees of any other class or category of persons in the matter of recruitment to
the posts in an establishment or employment.
4. State of AP v. Sreenivasa Rao 1989 – Exception to Equal Pay for Equal Work
a. Issue - whether payment of less salary to a senior than his junior in the same cadre
having the same scale of pay is violative of the principle of "equal pay for
equal work" enshrined in Article 39(d) read with Article 14 and 16 of the
Constitution.
b. The appeal (CAs 317-30/87 etc.) relate to the case of Assistant Section Officers of
Andhra Pradesh High Court. It may be pointed out that copyists and Assistants are
the two feeder-channels to the post of assistant Section Officers. Prior to 1974 the
Copyists were in the pay scale of Rs. 70-130 and were entitled to additional
payment at Rs. 7.5 P every 100 words they copy in excess of 42,000 words.
Consequent upon pay revision, they were given the pay scale of Rs.250-430 w.e.f.
1.1.1974 with- out entitlement of remuneration in addition to pay. The Copyists
represented that while revising their grade, the additional emoluments, which they
were getting prior to revision of pay, has not been taken into consideration.
c. On recommendation of the High Court, the State Government agreed to fix
the pay of the Copyists in the revised grade by adding to their basic pay
Rs.83.34P, that being the average remuneration that each Copyist was earning
prior to 1.1.74 and the Dearness Allowance admissible thereon.
d. The pre-revised scale of pay of Assistants was Rs.90-192 which was revised to
Rs.250-430 from 1.1.1974. Even though the Scale of Pay of Copyists and
Assistants was the same, Copyists started drawing more salary on account of
addition of Rs. 83.34P aforesaid. Consequently on promotion to the Post of
Assistant Section Officer, the salaries of those promoted from the cadre of Copyists
were fixed higher than those who were promoted from the cadre of Assistants.
e. One Janakirama Rao, a Copyist was promoted to the cadre of Assistant Section
Officer in 1984. On the basis of his last pay drawn as Copyist, his pay as
AKANSHA RUKHAIYAR
B.A. LL.B 2015
Assistant Section Officer was fixed higher than those who were promoted to the
said post from the cadre of Assistants during the period 1982-84, under F.R. 22(a)
(i) of Andhra Pradesh Fundamental Rules. The Seniors filed writ petitions in
the High Court contending that the grant of higher pay to juniors in the same cadre
is violative of the principle "Equal pay for equal work". The High Court allowed
the Writ Petitions and directed that the Assistant Section Officers seniors to
Janakirama Rao be paid the same salary as he was drawing.
f. Division Bench held that grant of higher pay packet to junior person than his
seniors under any circumstances is discriminatory. Hence these appeals by the
State of Andhra Pradesh.
g. Court
i. Doctrine of "Equal pay for equal work" cannot be put in a straight jacket.
Although the doctrine finds its place in the Directive Principles, this Court,
in various judgments, has authoritatively pronounced that right to "equal
pay for equal work" is an accompaniment of the equality Clause enshrined in
Article 14 and 16 of the Constitution of lndia.
ii. Reasonable classification, based on intelligible criteria having nexus with the
object sought to be achieved, is permissible.
iii. "Equal pay for equal work" does not mean that all the members of the cadre
must receive the same pay packet irrespective of their seniority, source of
recruitment, educational qualifications and various other incidents of service.
When a single running pay-scale is provided for a post in a cadre, the
Constitutional mandate of equal pay for equal work is satisfied.
iv. Ordinarily grant of higher pay to a junior would ex- facie be arbitrary
but if there are justifiable grounds in doing so, the seniors cannot invoke
the equality doctrine.
v. “The differentia on grounds such as, when persons recruited from different
services are given pay protection, when promoters from lower cadre or a
transferee from another cadre is given any pay protection, when a senior is
stepped at efficiency bar, when advance increments are given for experience/
passing a test/acquiring higher qualifications or as incentive for efficiency,
would be based on intelligible criteria which has rational nexus with the
object sought to be achieved, and which does not violate the mandate of
equal pay for equal work.”
vi. The orders appealed against were therefore reversed.
h. Section 4. Duty of employer to pay equal remuneration to men and women workers
for same work or work of a similar nature. –
(2) No employer shall, for the purpose of complying with the provisions of sub-
section (1), reduce the rate of remuneration of any worker.

WAGES
present earning capacity of the mill precludes the award of higher rates
of wages and higher dearness allowance."
b. The employees took an appeal against this award to the Appellate
Tribunal. While this appeal was pending, the Chief Commissioner,
Ajmer, took steps for the fixation of minimum wages of labourers in the
textile industry within the State, under the provisions of the Minimum
Wages Act. A committee was formed, as has already been stated, on the
17th of January, 1952, which submitted its report on the 4th of October,
following and on the 7th of October, 1952, the notification was issued
fixing the minimum rates of wages, against which writ petitions were
filed by several textile companies including the petitioner company.
c. In the meantime however the appeal filed by the labourers of the
company proceeded, in the usual way, before the Appellate Tribunal.
The Appellate Tribunal sent the case back to the Industrial Tribunal for
further investigation and the latter made its final award on the 8th of
September, 1953, by which it rejected the basis upon which minimum
wages of Rs. 56 were fixed by the Chief Commissioner and fixed the
minimum wages including the dearness allowance at Rs. 35 only.
d. The company states in its petition that the minimum wages fixed by the
State Government of Ajmer is altogether prohibitory and it is not at all
possible for the company to carry on its business on payment of such
wages. Accordingly the company closed its mills on and from the 1st
April, 1953
e. There were about 1500 labourers working in the mills of the company
and since January, 1954, several hundreds of them, it is said, approached
the managing authorities and requested them to open the mills
expressing their willingness to work at Rs. 35 as wages as fixed by the
Industrial Tribunal.
f. Though the majority of workers were agreeable to work on the wages
fixed by the Industrial Tribunal, the company is unable to open the mills
by reason of the fact that the Minimum Wages Act makes it a criminal
offence not to pay the wages fixed under the Act. This being the position
and as the Minimum Wages Act stands in the way of the company's
carrying on its business, on terms agreed to between itself and its
workers, Petition No. 188 of 1954 has been filed by the company
challenging the constitutional validity of the material provisions of
the Minimum Wages Act itself.
g. The workmen who are willing to work at less than the minimum wages
fixed by the State Government have filed the other petition supporting
all the allegations of the company.
h. Held, that the restrictions imposed upon the freedom of contract by the
fixation of minimum rates of wages though they interfere to some
extent with the freedom of trade or business guaranteed under Art. 19(1)
(g) of the Constitution are not unreasonable and being imposed in the
interest of general public and with a view to carry out one of the
