There is a lot of discrepancy regarding who has a right to audience in a labour court. Section 36 of ID act says No advocate can practise in a labour court unless accepted by the union. But the order 3 of cpc says only recogonised agents can appear in courts of India. Section 33 of Advocates act also states that only Advocates have the "Right to Audience". But i came across a report by NATIONAL CONSUMER DISPUTES REDRESSAL COMMISSION which states the word 'agent' applies to anyone authorized by the plaintiff. And the learned advocate Gopal Subramanium says supreme court has 'deprived' right to lawyers in the labour court. How does all this add up?
