No. 2430 of 2013 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ th Dated this the 16 day of March, 2017 J U D G M E N T This original petition is filed by a co-operative society challenging an award passed by the labour court adjudicating a dispute between the co-operative society and its employee/respondent. In the light of the larger bench decision of this court in Chirayinkeezhu Service Co-operative Bank Ltd. v. Santhosh [2015 (4) KLT 163 (L. B. )], the labour court has no jurisdiction to adjudicate the dispute between the Co-operative bank and its employees. Therefore, the entire proceedings in I. D. No. 1/2009 is quashed and set aside.
However, if the respondent approaches the competent authority under Section 69 of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Act, 1969 certainly, the competent authority shall consider the claim of the respondent after hearing the respondent and the petitioner within a period of four months from the date of filing such claim. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. Sd/- A. MUHAMED MUSTAQUE, JUDGE ms
