Who among the following is ineligible to be appointed as the Presiding Officer of a Labour Court?

Explanation

The qualifications for the appointment of a Presiding Officer of a Labour Court are governed by Section 7(3) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. According to the Act, a person is qualified for the post if they:

  • Are or have been a Judge of a High Court;
  • Have been a District Judge or an Additional District Judge for a period of not less than 3 years;
  • Have held any judicial office in India for not less than 7 years;
  • Have been the presiding officer of a Labour Court under any Provincial or State Act for at least 5 years;
  • Are or have been a member of the Indian Legal Service and have held a post in Grade III of that Service for at least 3 years.

The Act does not include practicing lawyers in its eligibility criteria. Therefore, a practicing lawyer, regardless of their years of experience, is ineligible.
