NEWS FLASH - BPEF UNION'S WRIT PETITION DISMISSED BY HON'BLE MADRAS HIGH COURT

HERE IS A NEWS FLASH - THE WRIT PETITION FILED BY BPEF UNION IN MADRAS HIGH COURT AGAINST THE TRADE UNION FACILITY OF P3 UNIONS OF NFPE & FNPO AND IRM&ASRM UNION STANDS DISMISSED TODAY
 
Dear Comrades,
 
HAIL THIS LEGAL VICTORY
 
As already intimated by our websites, the Writ Petition filed by the BPEF Union in the Hon'ble High Court of Madras came up for hearing today. The Interim injunction granted to the trade union facilities of P3 NFPE Union and FNPO Union was opposed by our Advocate. The Government Advocate also presented the case of the Government side. On hearing the arguments of our Advocate, the Honourable Judge dismissed the WRIT PETITION filed by the BPEF Union and ordered immedieate restoration of trade union facilities to P3 Unions of NFPE and FNPO and also the IRM&ASRM Union which was cancelled based on the Interim Injunction granted by the Hon'ble Madras High Court recently.
 
In addition the Honourable Judge ordered that whole process of Re-verification has to be concluded within a period of three months - This means there is no stay to the ongoing process of Re-verification and the  process will continue as usual.
 
NFPE hails this legal victory as the 'victory of the Postal Employees' who have always stood for honest trade unionism and opposed all types of machinations to scuttle the recognition of historic Federation and its Affiliated Unions and Associations. This legal victory should be a lesson to all forces who feel happy to see the trade union facilities temporarily withdrawn by the Administration on the face of Interim Injunction. Such types of joy aimed against our movement will only be short-liven as in the present case.
With this restoration of trade  union facilitiy and the direction of the Honourable Court for completion of Re-verification process, NFPE calls upon all the Divisional and Branch Secretaries to complete the process of submission of Declaration Forms with 5 lists with their signature at the bottom of each page today itself - Remember today [26.04.2010] is the last day of submission to the Divisional Heads.
 
CELEBRATE THIS LEGAL VICTORY - ENSURE OUR ORGANISATIONAL VICTORY WITH YOUR MAXIMUM SUBMISSION OF MEMBERSHIP FORMS TODAY ITSELF.
