The  facts and circumstances leading to the  above<\/p>\n<p>writ  petitions and the prayers being similar in  nature,  a<\/p>\n<p>common order is passed in all these writ petitions.<\/p>\n<p>      4.The  brief  facts  of the case,  as  stated  by  the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners, are as follows:-\n<\/p>\n<p>       It   is   submitted  on  behalf  of  the   petitioner<\/p>\n<p>associations   that   they  are   registered   associations,<\/p>\n<p>registered under the provisions of the Tamil Nadu  Societies<\/p>\n<p>Registration Act,1975. The associations have been formed for<\/p>\n<p>the purpose of protecting the interests of its members, more<\/p>\n<p>particularly,  in  matters  pertaining  to  their   business<\/p>\n<p>activities,  such  as  price fixation  and  marketing.   The<\/p>\n<p>members  of  the  petitioner  associations  are  traders  or<\/p>\n<p>manufacturers who purchase yarn from various spinning mills.<\/p>\n<p>The  yarn  purchased by the members are of two  types  viz.,<\/p>\n<p>warp  yarn  and weft yarn.  The warp yarn purchased  by  the<\/p>\n<p>members are handed over to sizing mills, on job work  basis,<\/p>\n<p>for  the purpose of sizing the warp yarn.  After the  sizing<\/p>\n<p>process  is  over, the sized warp yarn beams are taken  back<\/p>\n<p>from  the  sizing  mills and handed over  to  the  powerloom<\/p>\n<p>owners,  along with weft yarn, for being  weaved  into  grey<\/p>\n<p>fabrics.  The powerloom owners are the members of the fourth<\/p>\n<p>respondent  association carrying on the process of  weaving,<\/p>\n<p>on  job  work basis, from the traders and manufacturers  who<\/p>\n<p>are  members  of the petitioner federation. The  sized  warp<\/p>\n<p>yarn  and  the  weft yarn are properties of  the  respective<\/p>\n<p>members of the petitioner federation, which are handed  over<\/p>\n<p>to  the  powerlooms only for the purpose  of  weaving.   The<\/p>\n<p>ownership  of the yarn continues to remain with the  members<\/p>\n<p>of  the petitioner federation and the powerlooms are paid on<\/p>\n<p>job  work  basis, depending upon the nature  of  the  fabric<\/p>\n<p>which has to be weaved.  Thus, the activities of the members<\/p>\n<p>of  the  petitioner associations are, in effect,  individual<\/p>\n<p>contracts, purely within the realm of private law field.  No<\/p>\n<p>governmental  agency  can exercise  any  control  over  such<\/p>\n<p>individual  contracts  given for  carrying  out  job  works.<\/p>\n<p>Since   the   spinning  mills,  including  the  Co-operative<\/p>\n<p>spinning mills, in the state of Tamil Nadu have been  facing<\/p>\n<p>a  severe  recession, they were unable  to  pay  the  cotton<\/p>\n<p>suppliers  and  the  government  was  compelled   to   issue<\/p>\n<p>notifications  under the various enactments to  protect  the<\/p>\n<p>spinning  mills from being penalized for non-fulfillment  of<\/p>\n<p>their  contractual  obligations.  The  price  of  yarn   was<\/p>\n<p>fluctuating  and consequently, the price fixed for  the  job<\/p>\n<p>work,  such  as  sizing  or weaving,  was  also  fluctuating<\/p>\n<p>depending upon market conditions.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>      5.  It  is submitted that some of the members  of  the<\/p>\n<p>fourth  respondent  association, who are  powerloom  owners,<\/p>\n<p>have  also  conducted  trading and manufacturing  activities<\/p>\n<p>like that of the members of the petitioner associations  and<\/p>\n<p>therefore,  the  Powerloom Owners cannot be termed  as  work<\/p>\n<p>force  and  none  of  the labour welfare legislations  would<\/p>\n<p>apply to them, including the Industrial Disputes Act,1947.<\/p>\n<p>      6.  It  is  stated  that  the members  of  the  fourth<\/p>\n<p>respondent  association had compelled  the  members  of  the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner association to appear before the first respondent<\/p>\n<p>for  the purpose of arriving at a settlement, as regards the<\/p>\n<p>charges  payable  for  the weaving activities  done  by  the<\/p>\n<p>powerloom owners.  Even though the respondents 1 to  3  have<\/p>\n<p>no  jurisdiction  to interfere or having  any  control  with<\/p>\n<p>regard  to  the individual contracts, the first  respondent,<\/p>\n<p>unilaterally,  by  his  proceedings, dated  14.02.2000,  had<\/p>\n<p>ordered that the members of the petitioner associations have<\/p>\n<p>to  pay  18%  increased charges and in  respect  of  certain<\/p>\n<p>categories  of  fibres the charges have to be  paid  at  the<\/p>\n<p>increased  rate of 20%.   The said proceedings of the  first<\/p>\n<p>respondent is patently without jurisdiction.  The members of<\/p>\n<p>the petitioner associations deal in various types of fabrics<\/p>\n<p>and  they have individual tie-ups with powerloom owners  and<\/p>\n<p>each of such job works entrusted to the powerloom owners  is<\/p>\n<p>an  individual  contract and the rates are  mutually  agreed<\/p>\n<p>upon between the members of the petitioner associations  and<\/p>\n<p>the  powerloom  owners, who are the members  of  the  fourth<\/p>\n<p>respondent  association. By no stretch of  imagination,  the<\/p>\n<p>contracts  were  falling within the ambit of the  Industrial<\/p>\n<p>Disputes   Act,1947,   as   there   is   no   master-servant<\/p>\n<p>relationship and it is not a matter pertaining to employment<\/p>\n<p>or  the  terms of employment.  Therefore, the action of  the<\/p>\n<p>respondents  1  to  3  , in compelling and  threatening  the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner associations to come for negotiations, is  wholly<\/p>\n<p>without jurisdiction and is illegal in the eye of law, as it<\/p>\n<p>would also be contrary to Article 14 of the Constitution  of<\/p>\n<p>India.   Inspite   of  several  oral  representations,   the<\/p>\n<p>respondents 1 to 3 and their officials have been  constantly<\/p>\n<p>threatening the members of the petitioner associations, with<\/p>\n<p>a  view to compel them to enter into an arrangement with the<\/p>\n<p>powerlooms  owners.   On  receipt  of  the   letter,   dated<\/p>\n<p>13.01.2003,  from the fourth respondent, there  is  constant<\/p>\n<p>official  pressure on the petitioner associations  to  agree<\/p>\n<p>for  enhanced  rates  for  the job  works.   Therefore,  the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner associations have been constrained to come before<\/p>\n<p>this Court by way of filing the writ petitions.<\/p>\n<p>      7.In  the  counter affidavit filed on  behalf  of  the<\/p>\n<p>second   respondent  it  has  been  stated   that   as   per<\/p>\n<p>G.O.Ms.No.106,   dated  25.07.2001,  of   the   Labour   and<\/p>\n<p>Employment (D2) Department of the Government of Tamil  Nadu,<\/p>\n<p>the  second  respondent has been appointed  as  one  of  the<\/p>\n<p>Conciliation  Officers, under Section 4  of  the  Industrial<\/p>\n<p>Disputes Act,1947, to settle the industrial disputes arising<\/p>\n<p>in  the  State  of  Tamil Nadu.  The nature of  transactions<\/p>\n<p>between  the members of the petitioner associations and  the<\/p>\n<p>members of the fourth respondent association, as well as the<\/p>\n<p>nature  of  payments made by the petitioner associations  to<\/p>\n<p>the  members of the fourth respondent association  are  well<\/p>\n<p>within  the  purview  of the Industrial  Disputes  Act,1947.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore,  any dispute or difference falling under  Section<\/p>\n<p>2(K)  of  the Industrial Disputes Act,1947, could  be  dealt<\/p>\n<p>with by the second respondent, as contemplated by law.   The<\/p>\n<p>second respondent, as a conciliation officer, is expected to<\/p>\n<p>function   under  the  authority of the Industrial  Disputes<\/p>\n<p>Act,1947,  and  under  the  power  vested  in  him  by   the<\/p>\n<p>provisions of the Tamil Nadu Industrial Disputes Rules,1958.<\/p>\n<p>The  second respondent has been acting in good faith in  the<\/p>\n<p>discharge  of  the  functions contemplated  by  law  and  as<\/p>\n<p>prescribed  by  the  provisions of the  Industrial  Disputes<\/p>\n<p>Act,1947. The petitioner associations and their members  are<\/p>\n<p>not  in a position to show as to in what manner and to  what<\/p>\n<p>extent  such  exercise of powers and duties  by  the  second<\/p>\n<p>respondent  have  been wrongly exercised against  them.   In<\/p>\n<p>such  circumstances, the reliefs sought for  in  these  writ<\/p>\n<p>petitions  cannot  be  granted.  Therefore,  the  petitioner<\/p>\n<p>associations  and  its  members  cannot  be  taken   to   be<\/p>\n<p>aggrieved,  at  this stage.  Therefore, the  writ  petitions<\/p>\n<p>cannot   be  maintained  on  mere  apprehensions   and   the<\/p>\n<p>respondents  cannot  be  prevented  from  discharging  their<\/p>\n<p>official duties in accordance with law.\n<\/p>\n<p>      8.  On  a  perusal of the records placed  before  this<\/p>\n<p>Court,  it  is seen that an invitation has been extended  by<\/p>\n<p>the   communication,  dated  1.3.2000,  to  the   petitioner<\/p>\n<p>associations to come for talks for a negotiated  settlement,<\/p>\n<p>with  regard  to the situation that has arisen  due  to  the<\/p>\n<p>strike in work in the powerloom industry.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>       9.   It  is  seen that the sole apprehension  of  the<\/p>\n<p>members of the petitioner associations is that they will  be<\/p>\n<p>compelled  to enter into a compromise or a formal settlement<\/p>\n<p>which  will prejudice their interests.  But there is nothing<\/p>\n<p>shown by the petitioner associations as to the circumstances<\/p>\n<p>under which they would be prejudiced and in what manner harm<\/p>\n<p>would  be  caused  to  them. This Court  normally  does  not<\/p>\n<p>interfere  with  mere apprehensions and that  too  when  the<\/p>\n<p>apprehensions  are  with  regard  to  the  action   of   the<\/p>\n<p>respondents  1  to 3, who are highly ranked and  responsible<\/p>\n<p>government officials, namely, the District<\/p>\n<p>                                             M.JAICHANDREN.J<br \/>\nCollector, the Joint Commissioner of Labour and the  Revenue<\/p>\n<p>Divisional   Officer,  Tirupur,   while  discharging   their<\/p>\n<p>official  duties.   However, it is made clear  that  if  the<\/p>\n<p>members  of  the petitioner associations have any objections<\/p>\n<p>or  reservations, with regard to the issues involved in  the<\/p>\n<p>proposed talks, it will be always open to them to raise them<\/p>\n<p>at  the relevant point of time, in the manner known to  law.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore,  in  the said circumstances,  the writ  petitions<\/p>\n<p>are  dismissed.  In the impleading petitions, no orders  are<\/p>\n<p>necessary  and  hence,  the impleading  petitions  are  also<\/p>\n<p>dismissed.  No costs.\n<\/p>\n<p>kvsg<\/p>\n<p>To<\/p>\n<p>1.
