ORAL JUDGEMENT
Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner.
Mr. Shukla, learned counsel for the petitioner admits that the order impugned in this special civil application is passedby the second respondent under section 14-B of the Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952. Copy of this order is on record of this special civil application at annexure-A. The day on which this order was passed the petitioner was not having any alternative remedy of appeal against the impugned order. But during the pendency of the special civil application, in exercise of the powers conferred under section 7-D of the said Act the Central Government has already constituted a Tribunal to hear the appeals. Under section 7-I of the said Act the order of respondent No.2 passed under section 14-B of the said Act is appealable.
2. As the petitioner has right of appeal against the impugned order this special civil application is not maintainable. Only on the ground that the petitioner has now alternative remedy available against the impugned order this special civil application is dismissed. In case the petitioner prefers appeal before the appellate authority against the impugned order within a period of two months from today it is expected of the appellate Tribunal not to dismiss the same only on the ground of limitation, but shall decide the same on merits. It is further ordered that for two months from today the interim relief which has been granted by this court in this case shall continue. Thereafter the Tribunal shall consider the matter of continuation of interim relief or of vacation thereof in accordance with law. It is made clear that while dealing with this question of extension or vacation of interim relief granted by this court, the Tribunal will not be influenced by the fact that this court has protected the petitioner. Subject to the aforesaid observations and directions, rule discharged.
No order as to costs.
