J U D G M E N T
The petitioners are a Union of headload workers and a
member of that Union working in the Azhakom Chilavakkode
area, in Thiruvananthapuram District. In respect of the area of
operation of the workers represented by the 1st petitioner, there
was a dispute between them and respondents 4 to 7. A dispute
was raised under Section 21 of the Kerala Headload Workers’ Act,
which ultimately ended in Ext.P2 order. Against the same, Ext.P3
appeal has been filed before the 1st respondent. The petitioners
seek a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders
on Ext.P3 appeal expeditiously.
2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. In
the nature of the order I propose to pass, I do not think it
necessary to issue notice respondents 4 to 7.
3. In the facts and circumstances of the case, there
would be a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass
orders on Ext.P3 appeal, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate,
w.p.c.20162/08 2
within one month from the date of receipt of a certified copy of
this judgment, after affording an opportunity of being heard to
the petitioners and respondents 4 to 7.
The writ petition is disposed of as above.
