JUDGMENT
Petitioner is the Convener of Head load Workers
Union (BMS) of Panniyottukonam Unit and submits
that members of the Union were earlier members of
respondents 4 and 5 and this resulted in an agreement
between the Unions. One Subhash Chandrabose
started to cut and remove rubber trees standing in his
estate and when he was obstructed, he had
approached this Court for police protection and this led
to Ext.P1 judgment. Petitioner contends that the
owner of the property is willing to engage members of
the petitioner Union as well. But this is being objected
to by respondents 4 and 5. Petitioner also alleges
that respondents 4 and 5 are trying to employ
unregistered workers to defeat the workers of the
petitioner. This has been prevented by the petitioner.
In these circumstances, petitioner approached the
first respondent with Ext.P2 representation,
challenging the action taken by respondents 4 and 5.

2. Having heard learned Government Pleader also,
writ petition is disposed of directing the first respondent
to look into Ext.P2 and see that only registered workers
are employed irrespective of the Union to which they
belong. Needful action shall be taken on Ext.P2, as
expeditiously as possible, after notice to respondents 4
and 5 as well.
V.GIRI,
Judge
