3. The petitioner claims to be a registered Trade Union with registration No. 2998/CNI. It is further claimed that the petitioner is having 673 employees as its members. The grievance of the petitioner is that the respondents, while inviting the other Trade Unions for negotiation to decide the bonus issue, however, not invited the petitioner-Union though it is registered.

If any such representation is made, it is for the respondents to consider the same and pass orders on merits and in accordance with law. With the above observations, this Writ Petition is disposed of. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
