trade union. It is stated by Party II(2) (in Para 3 of the
Written Statement) that the Order impleading Party
II(2) is due to misappreciation of fact and law and the

recalled. In Paras 4(a) to (h) of the Written Statement,
Party II(2) states that Party II(2) is neither a necessary

Party II(2) to these proceedings is bad-in-law and is
not necessary to decide this reference.

the continuous employment of Party II(1) in the

workmen are unemployed and do not have any
source of income?

named in the Order of Reference?

It is denied that Party I were terminated from service
because they were organizing themselves under a
trade union. It is stated by Party II(2) (in Para 3 of the
Written Statement) that the Order impleading
Party II(2) is due to misappreciation of facts and law
and the said Order and consequent summons are
liable to be recalled. In Paras 4(a) to (h) of the Written
Statement, Party II(2) states that Party II(2) is neither
a necessary nor a proper Party. That there is no
employer-employee relationship between Party II(2)

have settled the matter with Party II(1) and have also
withdrawn their Provident Fund. That Goa Trade and
Commercial Workers’ Union has no locus standi to
