Sikri, J. <\/p>\n<p>1.     Petitioner  is the employees Union of Respondent No. 1., namely,  Container Corporation of India Ltd. (CONCOR). It has filed this writ  petition with the following prayers :\n<\/p>\n<p>     &#8220;(I) Writ  order  or direction in the nature of MANDAMUS  or  any other  appropriate  write  order or  direction,  restraining  the respondents  from adopting, implementing the  proposed  promotion policy  in relation to the employees working with the  respondent No. 1 without complying with the provisions of law.\n<\/p>\n<p>     (II) Writ,  order or direction in the nature of MANDAMUS  or  any other appropriate writ, order or direction, quashing the  notification  dated 23.9.99, regarding adoption of the proposed  promotion policy without compliance of the due process of law.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>2.   It  is  averred in the writ petition that with a view to  benefit  its favourities,  Management proposed a promotion policy for the employees  and it was purportedly notified on 10.9.98. However, petitioner did not receive a  copy  of the said promotion policy and, accordingly, it wrote  a  letter dated  12.10.98.  Thereafter, vide letter dated 20.10.98 the  copy  of  the promotion  policy  was  sent  to the petitioner  along  with  notice  dated 10.9.98.  The petitioner protested against the adoption of the said  promotion  policy.  It is further alleged that without any further  notice,  the respondents  have  adopted the promotion policy and are now going  to  hold departmental  examination  as per the same. The promotion policy  is  challenged  on the ground that as per earlier promotion policy the  time  bound promotions were given and the CONCOR cannot make unilateral policy.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.   Notice  dated  10.9.98 which was given, was under Section 9-A  of  the Industrial  Disputes  Act. The main ground taken in the  writ  petition  to challenge the promotion policy is that mandatory provisions of Section  9-A of the Industrial Disputes Act prohibit the alteration of the conditions of service  of the workmen unilaterally. It is also averred in the writ  petition that since Union had expressed its intention of non-acceptance of  the said promotion policy, the only way left out to the respondent was to raise an  industrial dispute in conciliation or enter into a settlement with  the petitioner  union with regard to the proposed promotion policy.  The  averments made by the petitioner clearly show that the petitioner is seeking to enforce  the rights as per the provisions of Industrial Disputes  Act.  The<br \/>\nappropriate  remedy  for the petitioner in the circumstances  is  to  raise industrial  dispute under the Industrial Disputes Act which is  alternative efficacious  remedy.  This  writ petition is  accordingly,  dismissed  with liberty to the petitioner to raise industrial dispute before the  appropriate Government.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delhi High Court Concor Emp.
