Rajeshwar Gajanan Dussawar vs M.S.R.T.C. Chandrapur Advocate - Deshpande Umesh Vijayrao — 57/2023

Summary The Labour Court, Chandrapur allowed the interim relief application filed by bus conductor Rajeshwar Dussarwar under Section 30(2) of the Maharashtra Recognition of Trade Unions and Prevention of Unfair Labour Practices Act, 1971. The court found that the complainant established a prima facie case and that the balance of convenience favors him, as the departmental enquiry against him violated principles of natural justice—specifically, the enquiry officer acted as a prosecutor, key witnesses were not examined, and proper reasoning was absent in the findings. The court restrained MSRTC from dismissing the complainant pending the main complaint's decision. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
