This fact is also not in dispute that in spite of passing of more than two and half years, till date, the said application has not been decided by the Labour Court for the reasons best known to it. 6. In the considered opinion of this Court, whenever an application is submitted by either side, it is expected from the Labour Court/ Subordinate Court to decide the same expeditiously as early as possible instead of keeping the same pending for considerable time. 7. In view of the above, the instant writ petition stands disposed of by issuing direction to the Labour Court to decide the application dated 13.09.2022, pending if any, expeditiously as early as possible, preferable within a period of three months from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order. 8. Stay application and all pending application(s), if any, also stand disposed of. (ANOOP KUMAR DHAND),J KuD/10
