Trade union elections

I am the president of Visaka industries kaamgaar sanghatan a registered trade union having 392 members. Our 3 years term expired on 29/12/2013 . Our union constitution states that we have to take a general body meeting in the month of January/February and if in that meeting the 9 office bearers don't get elected unanimously than vote by secret ballot is to be taken . But as our term was over on 27/12/2014 we decided to hold the meeting earlier than January and hence put a notice on 23/12/2013 to hold the meeting on 9/01/2014 . Some of the members did not let the meeting to be hold by making noises n tearing the union register . We gave 9 members show cause notice for disturbing the meeting and expelled 9 members . We than gave a notice of general body meeting on 26/01/2014 as it is mandatory to give a 15 days notice for general body meeting and hold the meeting on 09/02/2014 . In that meeting attended by 156 members I got elected unanimously as president and it was decided to hold the elections for other 8 office beards .hence election notice was given on 14/02/2014 and elections were held on 23/02 2014 and out of 392 members 202 polled our 8 office bearers got elected by getting 187 votes .
Meantime the other group gave us a notice that as we were not organising a general body meeting so they were holding a meeting on 05/02/2014 although it is mandatory as per unions constitution that members can hold meeting only after givin a 20 days notice to the union and if the union does not holds the meeting only than they can hold the meeting and it's also mandatory that a 15 days notice is given to members for general body meeting . They gave a notice to us on 18/01/2014 and hold the meeting on 05/02/2014 and put election notice on 15/02/2014 and hold the elections on 21/02/2014 and declared that they polled 192 votes and their winning candidates got 145 votes .
I want to know the legal status of our elections and does our expulsion of 9 members for anti union activities legally correct?

Termination of employment & harassment


Dear Concern

I joined Private Company in Jul’12 (18months) and terminated my services for under performance. When termination processed I was on Sick leave(employee insurance act, sec-73 states not possible during sickness) due to Dislocated fractured in right hand – PIN installed in bones. I am right handed person. Two different Doctors advised to avoid travelling & work with right hand. But company’s empanelled doctor given opinion to join (as per HR Mail), but I had not joined and shared advised of central government doctor’s advised. And company issued termination letter on this. Before going on leave, my manager put me under Performance Improvement plan and before the final review I went on sick leave.

My Line manager & skip manager (boss of line manager) ruin my career of12 yrs for escalating my grievances to HR-Director of my company. In the complaint I also recorded issues of exploitation & false allegations, few of them were:

1. Stopped reimbursements of consecutives 4 months
2. Taking business session of continuous 14 hrs
3. Using abusive language (Chu*ia & sister Fu*ker) in his cabin & telephonically – Audio recording not available
4. Forced to signed back dated Performance Improvement Plan (PIP)
5. Bias Treatment & putting me under such situation to hamper my performance. All worst branches mapped to me so that my performance (sales) should not come.
6. Line Manager visited my home during my absence in night (10:15pm), when my wife was alone and misbehaved
7. Asked me to report on email morning & evening to exploit among other colleagues
8. Asked to work on weekly off days i.e. Sat & Sunday

Someone please guide, is it possible to reinstate (by stay order) my employment with company for 3-4month (just to buy time).

Other fact are as following:

• company had disbursed basic salary in lieu of notice period
• company’s belongings are in my custody
• my other reimbursements of 40k are still pending at company’s end
• Intentionally, during PIP peried I requested support (through emails) from my line manager & trainer to support me but they had not supported. All emails available.
• Empanelled doctor was MD and my two doctors was Ortho surgeon & ortho specialist
• During my employment I, company issued one In-subordination letter and mentioned that I am not authorized to challenged/argued the letter

Esi act

There is a provision under EPF Scheme under para 26-B which deals with in case of doubt on the date of eligibility to becomes a member of the Fund, the RPFC has the power to conduct an enquiry and decide the same. For this purpose he will have the power of CPC. Normally it is applicabe in case there is difference of opinion between employer & employees regarding the date of joining. My query is whether there any analogous provision is there under ESI Act?
