Judgment & Decree

‑‑‑Ss.25‑A, 35 & 36‑‑Grievance petition‑‑Powers of Labour Court‑‑Labour Court, held, could not go into allegation as to whether management had taken bribe while nominating or removing name of particular doctor from list of panel of doctors. Nemo for Appellant. Date of hearing: 2nd August, 1989. The appellant is called absent without intimation upto 11‑00 a.m. though date was given in his presence on 29‑5‑1989.

2. This appeal is against the order, dated 1‑3‑1989, passed by learned Presiding Officer, Sind Labour Court No.IV, Karachi, whereby he dismissed in limine, the grievance application under section 25‑A (2) of the I.R.O., 1969.

3. The appellant in his grievance application had prayed for investigation that the action of the respondents in striking out name of Mr. Ashfaq Hussain Nadeem from the panel agency list was illegal and mala fide and set aside the same and issue directions to the respondents to re‑call the order and allow the applicant medical treatment from the said doctor.

4. Under section 25‑A of the 1.R.0. a worker can bring his grievance in respect of any right, guaranteed or secured to him by or under any law, award or settlement for time being in force before the Labour Court to seek relief. There is no provision of law under which the appellant is entitled to get medial aid from a particular doctor or particular doctor's name be maintained in the list of panel. Similarly no settlement or award guaranteeing this right to the doctor or the appellant has been cited in the grievance application itself. Under the circumstances the learned Labour Court has rightly held that the removal of the doctor from the panel cannot be the grievance of the worker to seek relief under section 25‑A, I.R.O. The Labour Courts cannot go in the allegation as to whether the management has taken any bribe while nominating or removing the names of doctor from the panel.

5. I find no merits in this appeal, which is dismissed in limine. H.B.T./1477/Lb. S Appeal dismissed.
