Case Summary: WPS/4443/2026 The Chhattisgarh High Court dismissed Shailendra Prasad Rathore's writ petition challenging his termination from South Eastern Coalfields Limited, finding he qualifies as a "workman" under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. Though the petitioner argued criminal acquittal invalidated the termination, the court held that service disputes fall within the industrial adjudication mechanism, making it the appropriate remedy. However, the court granted liberty to file an industrial dispute within 45 days, directing expedited conciliation proceedings.
