Section 10 Industrial Disputes Act | Labour Court Must Adjudicate on Merits After Accepting Reference : Rajasthan HC

Rajasthan High Court rules that once a Labour Court accepts an industrial dispute reference under Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, it cannot dismiss the case on technical grounds like omission of the exact termination date. The Court must adjudicate the dispute on merits, ensuring workers' rights to fair trial are protected.
