In Brief
An employee challenged denial of work by a cooperative bank through writ jurisdiction but was directed to pursue a remedy under the Industrial Disputes Act. Due to delayed communication of this order, the appellant took eleven years to approach the appellate bench. The Supreme Court, noting the communication failure, permitted the appellant to pursue the alternative statutory remedy within two months without the Forum dismissing it on grounds of delay, thereby balancing procedural compliance with substantive justice in employment disputes.
