    Summary of CP/100165/2026 - BDK Valves Private Limited v. Seedarla Court: High Court of Karnataka, Dharwad Bench Date: 12 June 2026 Judge: Justice B. Muralidhara Pai Key Facts BDK Valves terminated 140+ employees on 27 November 2024 for grave misconduct related to illegal strike participation. A trade union raised industrial disputes, and the Government referred them to the Labour Court, Hubballi under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. Court's Decision Dismissed - The petitions seeking transfer of pending industrial disputes from the Labour Court to Industrial Tribunals under the Industrial Relations Code, 2020 were rejected. Key Reasoning 1. Tribunals not yet constituted: Industrial Tribunals under the Code haven't been established, making transfer legally impossible 2. Removal of Difficulties Orders: Central Government notifications (08.12.2025 & 02.02.2026) clarify existing Labour Courts continue functioning until new tribunals are appointed to avoid administrative vacuum 3. Section 24 CPC inapplicable: Special tribunals aren't subordinate civil courts; transfer governed by statutory provisions, not general CPC rules 4. Jurisdictional clarity maintained: Labour Courts continue adjudicating under statutory authority pending tribunal constitution This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
