1. Delay condoned.
2. After hearing counsel for the applicant (petitioner No.5), the order dated 29.04.2025 is clarified to the extent that wherever no award/order is already passed in favour of the workman, the appropriate recourse will be to approach the Industrial Tribunal under Section 7A read with the Third Schedule of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 , seeking determination of the claim. However, if there already exists an award/order, in that case, the workman is at liberty to approach the Labour Court under Section 33C of the said Act for the purpose of execution or implementation of such award/order. In other words, only a pre-existing award/order can be permitted to be executed by invoking the jurisdiction of the Labour Court under Section 33C . The miscellaneous application stands disposed of.
