From the above it is clear that the application has been moved for the redress of an individual grievance and such an application can only be made to the Junior Labour Court under section 25-A of the Industrial Relations Ordinance, 1969, section 34 of the Industrial Relations Ordinance as it stood before the commencement of Industrial Relations (Amendment) Act, 1973 was as follows :-- "Any collective bargaining agent or any employer or workman may apply to the Labour Court for the enforcement of any right guaranteed or secured to it or him by or under any law or any award or settlement." On 9th February 1973, this section was amended by the Industrial Relations (Amendment) Act XXIX of 1973 and the words "or workman" were omitted and now only the collective bargaining agent or an employer can make an application for the enforcement of any right guaranteed or secured to it or him by or under any law or any award or settlement. The instant application has been made to enforce the right of Mr. Muhammad Shafi who is neither a CBA nor an employer and in this view of the matter, the application is not maintainable. It is, therefore, dismissed in limine.
