membership verification

Hon,ble High Court, Chennai not extended the stay order granted earlier filed by the BPTE Union.

HON'BLE MADRAS HIGH COURT HAD EARLIER ON 24.03.2010 GRANTED AN INTERIM INJUNCTION FOR TWO WEEKS ON A WRIT PETITION FILED BY THE BPEF UNION -

BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT INTERIM INJUNCTION IS NOT EXTENDED AFTER THE EXPIRY OF TWO WEEKS BY THE HONOURABLE COURT.

Re-verification Process is proceeding as scheduled - Complete the collection and submission of membership declaration forms before 26.04.2010

Bhartiya Federation P3 Union filed a Writ Petition in the Hon'ble High Court of Madras for cancellation of trade union facilities to NFPE and FNPO P3 Unions and IRM&ASRM Union. The Petition also challenged the Provisional Recognition granted to NFPE and FNPO.

Hon'ble High Court had granted two weeks injunction on 24.03.2010 but did not grant any stay on the Re-verification Process.

Yesterday the Case was noted for hearing and the AIPEU Group 'C' CHQ had filed its counter affidavit and ready for the hearing.

The hearing however did not take place as large number of cases were in the list – Today the Judge ordered for serving of Notice to all Parties and postponed the hearing without extending the Injunction, Therefore the Trade Union Facilities of P3 NFPE; P3 FNPO; and IRM&ASRM Association who were Defendents in the BPEF Case which were cancelled based on the interim injunction two weeks back, has automatically stands cancelled and the recognized Unions automatically stands restored with the trade union facilities.

Whenever the hearing will take place, the same will be attended to by the Advocate of P3 CHQ and all efforts would be taken to defend the trade union rights of our organisations. NFPE will shortly take a decision on impleading in the case since the Petition challenges the Provisional Recognition of FEDERARATIONS also.

As matters stand now, [1] The Reverification Process is on as per the schedule and all Secretaries are requested to concentrate their work and complete the collection of Membership Declaration Forms and submit them to the Divisional Heads before 26.04.2010; and [2] Trade Union Facilities of recognized unions continue be conferred on the NFPE and FNPO Unions and IRM/ASRM Association etc and therefore all are requested not to worry about the propaganda let loose by our rival Union.
