    Summary The Labour Court at Kolhapur allowed an application for condonation of delay in filing an unfair labour practice complaint under the Maharashtra Recognition of Trade Unions & Prevention of Unfair Labour Practices Act, 1971. The court found that the applicant, a forest worker terminated in November 2022, provided justified reasons for the 1-year 10-month 28-day delay, including insufficient legal knowledge, poor financial condition, and living in a remote area. The court prioritized advancing justice over technical procedural barriers and permitted the original complaint to be registered, allowing the applicant to challenge his termination on merits.
